Sick of diets but don't know how to eat without one? Do you just want to "eat normally" but feel so overwhelmed by food you don't know where to start? In this episode, Cloe and Kate walk you through some steps to be less afraid of hunger, get out of the diet/binge cycle and reconnect with the intuitive eater you were born as.

Warning – Discussion of eating disorders. There's also some swear words here because we get really worked up about Tim Tams having no power over you.

Resources mentioned in this episode:

Intuitive Eating, by Evelyn Tribole & Elyse Resch

Train Happy, by Tally Rye

We LOVE science. Here are some studies on the health benefits of intuitive eating.

In our first episode, Cloe and Kate get down and dirty with one of the most damaging things to women's physical and mental health - diet culture!

We've all been influenced by it, it affects so much of our lives but you probably don't even notice what evil influence it has on you.

We teach you how to recognise diet culture, how to get out of the shame/spend spiral it encourages and what to focus on instead to rise above the BS.

Warning - Discussion of eating disorders. There's also some swear words here because we talk about that time a diet book reminded us that dieting is easier than losing a loved one. WTAF.
