In this episode, we unpack the myth that smaller bodies lead to happier lives. We explore diet culture's influence, expose its key messages, and discuss real-life impacts on mental, physical, and social well-being. Plus, learn how unDIETING 101 offers a different path—focusing on body neutrality, gratitude, and sustainable habits, with weight changes as a byproduct, not the goal.

This Week's Challenge

Reflect daily: "What can my body do today that I'm thankful for?" Jot down 1-2 habits for your version of health (no size focus). Counter diet messages with neutrality.

Ever raid the pantry when you're not actually hungry, only to feel worse after? That's emotional hunger at work—and it's not your fault. In this episode, we cut through the nonsense of diet culture's "food is just fuel" myth and expose why we confuse physical needs with emotional voids. I'll break down the key differences, reveal the 7 hidden hungers (like craving comfort or control), and share practical strategies to spot and address what's really driving you. From my own battles, here's the cold hard truth: Awareness is your first step to real freedom.

This week's challenge: Pause and name it. Listen now and start unlearning the lies.

Ever finish a meal feeling uncomfortably stuffed or still hungry, wondering why you couldn't find that sweet spot of "just enough"? Most of us have completely lost touch with our body's natural satiety signals.

In this episode, we explore why we're so disconnected from knowing when we've had enough and reveal the 5 major barriers keeping you from recognizing "comfortably full."

• Why "unconscious eating" has become the norm and how it's robbing you of satisfaction • What "comfortably full" actually feels like (hint: it's different for everyone) • The 5 barriers blocking your satiety signals—from "Clean Plate Club" programming to hyperpalatable food hijacking • Simple, practical tips you can try this week to start reconnecting with your body's wisdom

Pick one barrier that resonates most and try the corresponding tip: leave two bites behind, take a halfway pause, or give yourself permission to have "forbidden" foods tomorrow.
