In episode 294 of Fitness & Sushi, we pull back the curtain on one of diet culture's most damaging exports: The Biggest Loser. What looked like “just TV” was actually cultural programming that rewired a generation of women to believe their worth was tied to shrinking their bodies. Contestants were pushed past the point of safety, trainers used shame and abuse as “motivation,” and viewers absorbed it all as truth. The fallout? Broken metabolisms, broken trust in our bodies, and decades of food and body obsession. In this episode — Fit for TV: How The Biggest Loser Broke Us — and How We Heal — you'll learn…

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Bree McKeen, founder of Evelyn & Bobbie, the brand rewriting the rules of bras with comfort, science, and confidence at the core. For decades, bras have been built on outdated designs that cause pain, poor posture, and even body dysmorphia. Bree is here to change that.Coming from a background in finance and healthcare investing, Bree didn't expect to end up in fashion. But as a woman wearing a 34G bra through long workdays, she knew the frustration firsthand—rigid underwires, digging straps, and sizing chaos that never seemed to fit. Instead of blaming her body, Bree questioned why bras hadn't evolved in nearly a century. That question sparked a revolution.At Evelyn & Bobbie, bras are reengineered for real bodies, not flat blueprints. With input from over 270 fit models, flexible sizing, and adaptive fabrics developed with top athletic manufacturers, their designs mold to your shape instead of fighting it. No underwires, no shame—just support that feels like a second skin.But this isn't just about comfort. Evelyn & Bobbie bras are trusted by surgeons for post-surgical recovery, praised for posture-friendly design, and cherished by women rediscovering confidence after years of pain and poor fit. Their message is bold and simple: your body is perfect—bras are the problem. Tune in to hear how Bree McKeen and Evelyn & Bobbie are transforming an everyday essential into a tool for health, healing, and empowerment.To learn more about Evelyn & Bobbie visit their website and social media.CHAPTERS:(0:02) Introduction & Fast Fashion(0:41) Meet Bree McKeen, Founder of Evelyn and Bobbie(1:01) Bree's Background & Inspiration(2:03) The Struggles of Finding a Comfortable Bra(3:15) Health Impacts & Posture Issues(5:00) Outdated Bra Design & Industry Standards(6:35) Sizing Struggles & Body Image(8:18) The Flaws in Conventional Bra Construction(11:17) Designing Bras That Adapt to Women's Bodies(13:00) Body Dysmorphia & Fashion's Role(16:01) Evelyn & Bobbie's Philosophy & Fit ModelsPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

Recovery from disordered eating doesn't end the moment bingeing stops — that's often where an entirely new phase begins. In this episode, Stef and Sarah unpack the often-overlooked “middle ground” of recovery — the stage where the chaos of bingeing has quieted, but true peace with food still feels out of reach. Stef describes this phase as a kind of emotional limbo: the urgency is gone, but now there's loneliness, uncertainty, and a disorienting sense of now what?. Sarah shares how she moved from bingeing to occasional overeating, and how easy it was to slip into black-and-white thinking without recognizing the real progress she'd already made. Together, they explore: what this “no man's land” actually looks and feels like why it's normal to struggle more with self-image once the bingeing stops the importance of community, language, and support during this time how to build trust in yourself before everything feels fully healed why this middle stage isn't failure — it's where real integration happens If you're past the acute phase but still don't feel “recovered,” this conversation will help you name where you are, trust the process, and move forward with more clarity (and less self-judgment).

This episode of The Holistic Healing Podcast is for Christian women who want to align their view of their bodies with God's Word and experience freedom from comparison and self-criticism.

Episode Highlights: Faith-Based Body Image Tips and Truths [00:31] Why body image is more than a teenage struggle — Kasey shares her postpartum experience and why women at every age need a biblical perspective. [01:26] The God who never changes — Why your worth must be rooted in God's character, not fluctuating body changes.

[04:42] Smile lines as joy lines — Seeing aging as evidence of a life lived in gratitude and grace. [07:06] Postpartum compassion — Learning to honor your body for the miracles it has carried instead of criticizing it.

The Bible teaches that God looks at the heart rather than outward appearance (1 Samuel 16:7) and that we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Your worth comes from being created in God's image, not from meeting cultural beauty standards. Q: How can Christian women overcome postpartum body shame? Postpartum body changes are part of God's design. Shift your perspective by thanking God for what your body has accomplished, such as carrying and nurturing life. Replace negative self-talk with Scripture, and focus on caring for your body out of gratitude rather than trying to “bounce back.” Q: How can I embrace aging as a Christian? Aging is a visible reminder of God's grace and the life He has given you. Scripture calls gray hair a crown of glory (Proverbs 16:31). Focus on spiritual renewal (2 Corinthians 4:16) and view smile lines and other signs of aging as evidence of joy and wisdom. Q: How do I teach my kids a healthy, biblical body image? Avoid appearance-based compliments and focus on character, kindness, and perseverance. Address unrealistic portrayals in media, celebrate body diversity, and remind your children that God created their bodies on purpose and with care. Q: How do I replace negative body image thoughts with God's truth? Identify the source of the negative thought (family, peers, or media) and then replace it with a relevant Bible verse. Keep verses like Psalm 139:14 or 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 visible—on your mirror, phone background, or journal—and repeat them regularly until they take root.

Send us a textAlright friends, this one's a juicy flex of an episode. If you've ever thought about strength training as just “working out,” you're gonna leave this convo seeing your muscles as the badass miracle tissue they actually are. My guest today is journalist and author Bonnie Tsui, who wrote a brilliant book all about muscle. Like, the science and the soul of it.We dig into why women have historically been sidelined when it comes to muscle building and how we're finally flipping that script. Like, did you know women used to avoid swim team because they didn't want their shoulders to look “too big”? (Insert a big ol' eye roll here.) And Bonnie's not just talking aesthetics. She's going deep on muscle as essential to longevity, confidence, emotional resilience, and yeah, even your identity.This episode is for anyone who's ever stepped into a gym and felt like they didn't belong or who's just curious about why grip strength is suddenly a thing your doctor actually cares about.Plus, we get into puberty, menopause, and the myths of the Marvel six-pack.
