Fat-positive sex and relationship coach and fellow podcast host Dawn Serra returns to the podcast to discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting our relationships with food and highlighting existing social injustices, how diet culture robs us of our ability to embody pleasure, desirability politics and its links to diet culture and oppressive beauty standards, navigating romantic relationships while in recovery, and so much more. Plus, Christy answers a listener question about how to tell whether your eating and exercise are intuitive or compulsive amid COVID-19 stress. (This episode originally aired on May 11, 2020.)

If you're like me, you may know so much about diets, calories, macros and food that the thought of talking to a dietician seems a little unnecessary. What more could you possibly learn about food and how to eat? But, today I start a month long series talking to a specific group of Christian dietitians who are "non-diet" dietitians. These women are trained and licensed dietitians who have committed their work to helping women break free from issues with food and eating disorders. Today, my guest is Tracy Brown. Her work specializes in helping women who have trauma (known or unknown) and helping them break free from the way it keeps them stuck in eating disorder behaviors. Highlights from today's show include: Tracy talks about how we need to be professors of our own experience with food. Tracy shares how overtime there is a food binge or "grabbiness" there's usually a food deficit somewhere earlier in the day. She talks about how trauma can come from a family's inability to know what to do with emotion--not all traumas are big traumas. Yet, they can still cause us pain. The connection between HSP (highly sensitive people) and eating disorders, body image, and perfectionistic tendencies. Why there's often a set back after six weeks of progress on journeys to food and body image freedom. How promoting self-love is deeply connected to New Age philosophies and teachings that Christians should avoid. Learn more about Tracy: Tracy Brown,RD,LD/N  is a trauma informed nutrition therapist/eating disorder dietitian, stress recovery coach and nutrition counseling skills teacher.  She walks besides people wanting to heal their relationship with food and weight as well as feel safer and less stressed in their bodies.  Her testimony of recovery from eating disorders, trauma and the new age is meant to bring glory to God's mercy and grace. Since 2006, she has guided people one on one and in groups in healing from disordered eating and chronic dieting, many of which also have other stress-related conditions at www.tracybrownrd.com/get-started and  https://www.tracybrownrd.com/free-gifts (to stop bashing your body) She provides trauma informed and body image  training and supervision to health professionals as well at www.embodieddietitian.com Connect with Compared to Who?: https://www.comparedtowho.me and take the free body image awareness quiz.

Ramadan - one of the five pillars of Islam - is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is characterised by a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. The fasting (and feasting) can be triggering for people struggling with disordered eating and eating disorders for obvious reasons. In contrast, the focus on spirituality and community can be healing. CAR's Farheen Hasan and eating disorder advocate (behind Islam and eating disorders) Maha Khan tell us more.

In all that parenting demands, it may be challenging to incorporate a regular healthy diet for you and your children.  Diet goes beyond food and extends to the attitudes toward eating, food and our bodies. How can you help yourself and your child develop a healthier mindset toward food and their body? In this episode, Jodi and her guest - Gila Glassberg discuss intuitive eating and how you can set yourself and your family up for success. About Our Guest:Gila Glassberg is a Master's level registered dietitian and a certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. As a teenager, she was faced with constant diet talk, body shaming and obsessive guilt around food. This led to years of struggling with disordered eating. This is what propelled her into the field of nutrition.She uses a non-diet, weight-neutral approach called Intuitive Eating. She helps growth oriented  women break out of chronic dieting, and regain clarity into what is really important to them.You can find more of Gila's interviews, blog posts and information on her website at www.gilaglassberg.com and you can follow her on Instagram @gila.glassberg.intuitiveRDShow Notes:4:31 What is intuitive eating?“Kids learn best by modeling, the first thing we can do is work on the mom's relationship to food before we work on the child's relationship to food.”8:02 Why children need to look at food in a neutral way“One of my main goals is to neutralize food, yes I want it to be positive, but first and foremost neutral. Just like you don't feel guilty going to the bathroom, just like you don't feel guilty when you breathe, these things that you need to live, there really shouldn't be any guilt associated with eating.”14:26 Intuitive eating in parents versus the feeding model for children“We want to instill autonomy in children over their eating and in their body.”17:52 Fostering a healthy attitude towards food in children“We feel so entitled to judge people based on their body size and I really want people to really reconsider that. Think about how much you're emphasizing the way that you look, the way that you want your child to look, versus who they are as a person.”22:12 Dealing with outside negativity“If someone makes fun of him for his weight it will hurt, but it won't penetrate into his soul if he feels a sense of love and confidence from his parents.”25:43 Normalizing child behaviors and asking questions“You can say to your kid ‘well what's wrong with being fat?'... a lot of times we do something and we have no idea why and a lot of times we say things and we have no idea why… kids are just so smart and intuitive, and they can teach of so much about ourselves.”29:13 Closing thoughts“We only have a certain amount of headspace, and if we're filling it 75% up with ‘What am I eating? How skinny am I?' you're really losing out on what life has to offer.”Credits:Host: Jodi FriedGuest: Gila GlassbergEditors: Iris Nelson and Maximus Quirino

In this episode, let's chat about beauty ideals and body image. Because today's unrealistic standards for what is beauty, and the societal standards we experience, absolutely sets the stage for our own body image beliefs.   I mean how could it not? Sit and think about this: what are the images of women you saw growing up? What did they look like? I know for me it was Barbie dolls and princesses on Disney. What were your mothers or other adult women around you talking about as you grew up? For me, dieting and controlling food and our bodies was just the norm of what conversations among women looked like.   Listen to today's episode to learn how beauty ideals impact your own body image, and the differences between self expression versus self objectification.   In this episode I reference the books: The Beauty Myth, Invisible Corset and More Than a Body.   Today's episode is brought to you by our signature program, Food and Body Peace Playbook (FBPP). FBPP is an 8 week online course & group coaching program that will help you build lasting food freedom, better body image & sustainable health habits that stick.   If you're ready to stop dieting forever and make peace with food and your body I'd love to see you as one of the 20 spots inside the program when it opens for January. That means you can start off 2022 making the decision to say NO to diets that don't work and YES to intuitive eating and a lifetime of treating your body well.   Are you looking for one on one coaching for intuitive eating, body image,  hormone support and/or digestive relief? We are booking for the final months of 2021 with limited spots left, reach out today to start your healing journey!   Resources for you: Learn more about our services at Nourishing Minds Nutrition.

Happy Satiated Saturday!  I have seen over the years when healing your relationship with food, there is a point many realize when it's not really about the food anymore. The focus on what, when, and how you're eating came in as protection. This protection was keeping you safe from addressing other areas, beliefs, perspectives that may have felt too emotionally intense to look at where focusing on your food actually felt safer in your body to ruminate on.  Healing your relationship with food can be experienced as in service to creating more emotional space to process, digest, assimilate, what your body has been emotionally holding on to. When you have been dieting, restricting, and focusing on food for years and years there can be many emotional reactions that arise in the process of shifting your focus away from food to attend to other areas of your life that need healing.In this week's episode, I will discuss the stages of healing your relationship with food and what you can expect on a food healing journey. You can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/the-emotional-stages-of-healing-your-relationship-with-foodYou get to trust you're always exactly where you're meant to be. Your healing path will unfold the way it needs to and this is an adventure that can be enjoyed every step of the way.

This week we explore how to reframe our understanding of past challenges and use those experiences to identify positive new ways to navigate forward more empowered because of them! We welcome Isabel Chiara, creator of the “Life Actualization Process,” a guide, mentor, and leader, who brings with her a powerful message, “Your obstacles are working for you!” Isabel is also the author of the new released book, Eat Your Words, a narrative, semi-autobiographical exploration, full of life-lessons and experiences transforming self-destructive behavior into self-compassionate dialogue and ways to better understand how inherited trauma can influence our tendency to use food or other external substances for placation. Chiara shares why women are especially good at creating Food-Abusive relationships and even her historic abuse of her own physical nutritional fluctuations. Isabel also reveals how we can transform addiction through slow steps of self-compassion, the importance of self-care, gut instinct, and even imaginative muses. But most of all, she asks listeners to love NOT being there yet and even to reframe what “getting there” actually means and why we can come together to transform what success physically looks like. One thing resonates throughout the hour, failure is not an option – as long as we are trying, we are learning, growing and transforming--but not failing! Isabel has been a leader throughout her entire life, studying and working in transformational energy modalities, serving others, whether through entrepreneurial work, culinary prowess, or her professional intuitive guidance. With dedication, Isabel activates unlimited potential and empowerment for her clients, helping them to ignite their full passion and align with their most authentic life path, masterfully supporting the liberation of constricting beliefs, definitions, and self-limitations.To learn more about her or purchase her book, Eat Your Words, also available at your favorite booksellers, visit her at www.Isabel-Chiara.com.

Day-to-day life has seen some huge changes over the past 18 months. Maybe we've also seem some changes in ourselves—maybe our hair has gotten longer, maybe we wear sweats more than jeans. And: maybe our bodies have changed.

#tbt to our top downloaded episodes of Why Tho! Old friends and new, these episodes offer humor, wisdom, and practical hope for you. In celebration of our third birthday we're revisiting the archives to see how far we've come and thank you for being part of the Why Tho Fam! Body image impacts women everywhere. Our culture is obsessed with image. From magazine covers to social media ads to the groups we belong to, we're receiving implicit and explicit messages that the sum total of our value is in our pants size, our lack of wrinkles, our hair, and skin color. In this episode, Tiffany and Ashley talk about their experiences with body image (name calling, shame, eating disorder, and more). Plus, we'll provide helpful tools to help you overcome negative body image and share how to lean into a more holistic perspective of our emotional, spiritual, relational and physical well-being. We can resist the cultural norms and stop reducing ourselves to what we look like so we can celebrate who we (and others) are!

Thanks to the pandemic, we now spend even MORE time doom scrolling through obnoxiously perfect Insta-people, and endlessly staring at our own faces via zoom than ever and (surprise, surprise) it's had a negative impact on our self-esteem. Yumi Stynes catches up with body image and eating disorder expert, Dr Gemma Sharpe, about "zoom dysmorphia" and what can we do to feel better about ourselves, one video call at a time.

Hey friends! Today we are going to dig deeper into what scripture says about the power of our words! Our words can feel so insignificant, like they carry no power, they're "innocent". But scripture tells us over and over again that our words have the power of life and death! Our words are like a spark that can start an entire fire! They are like the tiny rudder on the ship, small yet steers the entire thing!Our words: written, spoken, even just thought about, have huge power over others as well as our own lives. How do you speak to yourself? How do you speak about others? Do you edify and lift others up with your words, whether they hear you or not? Or do you tear down with your words? I challenge you to be more aware of your words and watch your mouth.

Plus-size-yoga teacher and wellness coach Rachel Estapa returns to discuss why mindfulness is a tool rather than a be-all-end-all, how seeking validation on social media mirrors seeking weight-loss praise, how to balance vulnerability and boundary-setting when sharing your lived experiences, the role of forgiveness in healing from diet culture, and so much more! Plus, Christy answers a listener question about how health and wellness professionals can handle concerns about potential clients getting “scared off” by the anti-diet approach. (This episode originally aired on September 23, 2019.) Rachel Estapa, founder and CEO of More to Love, is passionate about empowering people to love and appreciate their bodies. Her own path to body acceptance began many years ago. After yo-yo dieting throughout her teenage years and into adulthood, Rachel took stock of her life and realized she wasn't happy. Even when she reached her “goal weight,” she felt something was missing. That's when she decided she would stop trying to change her body and instead she would focus on loving the body she has.

What messages have you been told about your body and your sexuality?   At the coffee shop with Juli are two friends; join these women from different cultures for a candid conversation about what they were told and believed about their sexuality. Their stories are unique, but they share a common thread: the messages were powerful and confusing. Listen in to hear how God brings redemption to their lives to walk free from body shame. "A White theological understanding of sexuality cannot be the only voice. You have to leave room for our voice, for our experiences... If you leave room for our voice too, we find a more robust, a more consistent biblical understanding of sexuality". –Dawn Jones Guests: Danisa Suarez, LPC, MA and Dawn Jones, LPC, MA "Rethinking Sexuality" (Juli's book) Legacy Counseling & Consulting, Dawn Jones's Practice CCI Counseling, Jorge & Danisa Suarez's Practice Leave us a rating & review on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or in your podcast app. Follow Authentic Intimacy on: Instagram: @authenticintimacy Facebook: @authenticintimacy Follow Juli on Twitter @DrJuliSlattery

Today's guest is Victoria Garrick. Victoria is a former Division I volleyball player, TED Talk speaker, podcast host, and mental health advocate. She was a four-year starter at USC, where she won a PAC-12 Championship and finished her career with the top five most digs in program history.   Today she has well over a million followers on her social media platforms, hosts the “Real Pod” podcast, has a TED talk that has been viewed over 370,000 times, and founded a mental health nonprofit, “The Hidden Opponent.”   What is really inspiring about Victoria is that her entire platform has been built from sharing her story. You may think that her incredibly successful collegiate career would guarantee happiness for Victoria. But like so many, the external accolades didn't quite fulfill her internally and the immense pressure started to impact her mental health. During her sophomore year, Victoria found herself heavily depressed, anxious, battling an eating disorder, and experiencing body dysmorphia.  She finally reached a breaking point where she decided to go to therapy and unpack what was at the root of all of this.  After this, Victoria bounced back and returned to finish her junior and senior seasons and the rest is history. She has been on an absolute tear ever since to share her journey to help those that are experiencing similar struggles.   Today our discussion on the pod encapsulates it all. Victoria will walk you through what rock bottom looked like for her, how she healed and got to where she is today. She shares what she felt were the contributing factors that caused her mental health demise and what helped her feel empowered again when she began her transformation. We chat about Victoria's struggles with body image, why so many people face difficulties with this, and how to overcome it.  Victoria talks about her relationship with food today and how she deals with competition in her current line of work. She talks about what inspired her to start sharing her story and what she would change if she was in charge of youth sports and more!   Connect with Victoria: Website: www.victoriagarrick.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/victoriagarrick/ Podcast: https://dearmedia.com/shows/real-pod/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@victoriagarrick4   Connect with Doug: Instagram: www.instagram.com/dougbopst Twitter: www.twitter.com/dougbopst Facebook: www.facebook.com/dougbopst   Thanks to this episode's sponsor:  Organifi (Immunity blend): Receive 20% off your order by going to: www.organifi.com/doug

Fellow anti-diet dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor Ayana Habtemariam joins us to discuss how she's bringing intuitive eating to marginalized communities, whether food environments influence health, the oppressive roots of diet culture, paternalistic nutrition policies, and so much more. Plus, Christy answers a listener question about how to deal with worries about your partner's health. (This episode originally aired on February 17, 2020.) Ayana is a nutrition therapist, certified intuitive eating counselor, and macro social worker. She is the founder of Truly Real Nutrition, LLC, a private nutrition practice where she empowers clients to give up dieting in exchange for trusting their bodies and breaking free from food rules that result in feelings of failure and shame. She encourages her clients to embrace the beauty, power, and connection that their food traditions, personal experiences, and values add to their lives. Ayana is committed to increasing awareness of intuitive eating and weight inclusive philosophies in black communities. She believes that weight-centric approaches to health and wellness only serve to exacerbate body image issues, stress, and anxiety which contribute to increased rates of chronic diseases often seen in black and other communities of color. Ayana has 10+ years of experience educating the public on the relationship between the nutrition environment and health outcomes. Prior to transitioning to private practice, she worked with community leaders and local politicians as a nutrition policy advocate and community nutrition educator, in the healthcare field as a clinical dietitian at Mercy Philadelphia Hospital, and as an award-winning, top performing account manager at a Fortune 500 company.
