Journalist Virginia Sole-Smith joins us to discuss how GLP-1 hype has changed the conversation about diet culture, the importance of body autonomy, how “bro” diet culture became public policy, how she handles haters, the “fed is best” approach to parenting, and lots more. Behind the paywall, she shares her experience of weighing herself for the first time in years, what it's been like to date for the first time in a larger body, how she's changed her relationship to cardio, and more. This episode is cross-posted from our other podcast, Rethinking Wellness. As a journalist, Virginia Sole-Smith has reported from kitchen tables, graduated from beauty school, and gone swimming in a mermaid's tail. Virginia's latest book, Fat Talk: Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture, is a New York Times bestseller that investigates how the "war on childhood obesity" has caused kids to absorb a daily onslaught of body shame from peers, school, diet culture, and families—and offers research-based strategies to help parents name and navigate the anti-fat bias that infiltrates our schools, doctor's offices and dinner tables. Virginia began her career in women's magazines, alternatively challenging beauty standards and gender norms, and upholding diet culture through her health, nutrition and fitness reporting. This work led to her first book, The Eating Instinct: Food Culture, Body Image and Guilt in America, in which Virginia explored how we can reconnect to our bodies in a culture that's constantly giving us so many mixed messages about both those things. Virginia's work appears in the New York Times Magazine, Scientific American, and many other publications. She writes the newsletter Burnt Toast, where she explores anti-fat bias, diet culture, parenting and health, and also hosts the Burnt Toast Podcast. Virginia lives in New York's Hudson Valley with her two kids, two cats, a dog, and way too many houseplants.  Check out Christy's three books, Anti-Diet, The Wellness Trap, and The Emotional Eating, Chronic Dieting, Binge Eating & Body Image Workbook for a deeper dive into the topics covered on the pod. If you're ready to break free from diet culture and make peace with food, come check out Christy's Intuitive Eating Fundamentals online course.

In this episode, Elizabeth Mintun is joined by Carley Weissert, a self-love and body image coach for women, who helps her clients create peace with their bodies, find freedom with food, and dismantle the rules and beliefs that keep them stuck in cycles of shame, perfectionism, and restriction.Carley shares her own transformational journey, from years of disordered eating and self-criticism to hitting her rock bottom. Through candid storytelling, she walks us through the moment she got “sick of herself” and how working with a coach opened the door to body peace and self-trust. Carley's honesty, warmth, and lived experience make this episode a must-listen for anyone who's ever struggled with their relationship to food, their body, or the internalized need to be "perfect."Key TakeawaysInner-child and - especially - inner teen work can uncover hidden beliefs that could be significantly contributing to body image issues. Self-compassion, including common humanity (the idea that we're not alone) is a key component of healing body image struggles. Shame keeps us silent, and bringing our shame into the light is one of the first steps to healing.

This was one of my favourite podcasts that I've appeared on.   It was with my friend Anthony Walsh from his studio in Dublin.   We go long here (nearly two hours) and touch on so many different topics. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it.    You can follow Anthony's Roadmap Cycling show here:   https://open.spotify.com/show/2oCs3N4ahypwzzUrFqgUmC   Prefer to watch your podcasts? The full video is on my YouTube channel Brian Keane Fitness ____________________________________________   What happens when the identity that once drove you starts holding you back? In this honest and wide-ranging conversation, Anthony reconnects with Brian Keane—author, speaker, and ultra-endurance coach—to explore the line between discipline and dysfunction. They dive into self-doubt, social pressure, and the reality of rebuilding when your goals shift. Brian shares what a decade in fitness has taught him, how he's reframed his training around purpose, and why foundational movement always wins out over trends. From Ozempic to testosterone, strength periodization to mindset shifts, nothing's off the table. If you're feeling stuck, questioning your routine, or just curious about what sustainable growth really looks like—this episode is for you.  

In this episode of Mind Your Fitness, we are joined by Aaron Flores, a registered dietitian and host of the podcast Men Unscripted, for a compelling conversation on the intersections of eating disorders, diet culture, and the male experience. Aaron shares his journey as a dietitian healing his own relationship with food/body and how unlearning traditional nutrition training helped him adopt a weight-inclusive, intuitive eating approach to support other men. He joins us to unpack how modern masculinity, performance culture, and diet trends intersect in harmful ways. From teen boys chasing gym gains to tech bros obsessed with fasting and supplements, this episode challenges how we define "health" for men. The conversation also dives into under-discussed topics like low testosterone from restrictive eating, how male libido can signal nutritional imbalance, and the gaps in identifying and supporting those men struggling with body image and/or disordered eating concerns. A must-listen for clinicians, parents, and anyone supporting men on their wellness journey. Aaron Flores is Los Angeles-based registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN), Certified Body Trust® Provider, and one of the few men very active in the space of intuitive eating. Aaron is a true trailblazer with his podcast Men Unscripted, where he holds conversations that give insight into the struggles that men experience when it comes to their body, food, and fitness. He has been featured in the New York Times, Huffington Post, Buzzfeed, and on the 10% Happier Podcast.

Today we are talking about something that I know so many of us struggle with—whether we say it out loud or not. And that is: how we feel about ourselves when we see a photo of ourselves that we don't love. Maybe it's a group picture someone tags you in. Maybe it's a candid shot your partner took. Maybe it's even a selfie you took yourself—and instead of seeing the fun memory, the beautiful moment, or the experience you were having, your brain zooms in on that one thing you hate about how you look. “Ugh, my arms look huge.” “Why do I look so puffy?” “I didn't realize my legs looked like that.” If you've ever had a moment where a photo stole your joy… this episode is for you.   What I discuss:  What a “self-discrepancy moment” is Some factors that can significantly change how you look in pictures What to do when the self-discrepancy moment hits 6 actionable steps to positively react   And if you loved today's episode, I know you'll also love… Episode 338: To the Woman Obsessing About What Her Body Looks Like…https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/to-the-woman-obsessing-about-what-her-body-looks-like    If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

If perfectionism is your favorite weakness, this one's for you. Dr. Ellen Hendriksen, clinical psychologist and author of How to Be Enough: Self-Acceptance for Self-Critics and Perfectionists, joins Vic to unpack the roots of perfectionism, how it shows up in everyday life, and why so many of us feel like we have to earn our worth. They explore the difference between healthy ambition and toxic self-criticism, how to find that middle ground where you're still growing without burning out, and what it really means to practice self-compassion. Vic opens up about her own struggles with perfectionism—from how playing D1 volleyball enhanced her inner critic to why she regrets overplanning Max's 30th birthday—and shares the tools she's learning to prioritize presence over performance. Whether you overthink, overachieve, or feel like you're never quite doing enough, this conversation will help you let go of the pressure and embrace the messiness of being human.Website: ellenhendriksen.comInstagram: @ellen_hendriksenBook: How to Be Enough: Self-Acceptance for Self-Critics and Perfectionists by Dr. Ellen Hendriksen// SPONSORS // Quince: Treat your closet to a little summer glow-up with Quince.

If we were starting our health and fitness journeys over today, these are the 5 critical lessons we would apply from day one. In this episode, we break down the biggest mistakes we made, what we'd do differently, and how you can skip the trial and error to fast-track your own success. We cover: ✔️ The importance of tracking your workouts and data—stop wandering through the gym without a plan ✔️ Why spending more time at maintenance calories (instead of constant dieting or bulking) is the real key to sustainable progress ✔️ How to avoid wasting money on unnecessary supplements and which ones are actually worth it ✔️ The power of having a clear vision and purpose behind your fitness goals to stay motivated long-term ✔️ Why daily movement outside of workouts is a game-changer for overall health and fat loss This is the advice we wish someone gave us at the start. If you're just beginning—or even if you've been at it for a while—this episode will help you avoid common pitfalls and focus on what really matters.

This week on Two Women Chatting, Michelle is joined by dynamic duo Marie Thom and Yvonne Vincent for a witty, heartfelt conversation about navigating midlife with confidence, creativity, and community. From finding their voices through writing to embracing ageing with a sense of humour, Marie and Yvonne share how life after 40 can be the most empowering chapter yet.They also introduce their exciting new podcast, Hear Me Roar, which celebrates the midlife journeys of both women and men - breaking down stereotypes and sparking conversations about confidence, body image and wellness. Whether it's publishing a book, transforming your health, or simply learning to laugh at the chaos; this episode is a joyful reminder that it's never too late to rewrite your story.Key Insights:

This episode is a little more personal.I'm talking about something so many of us carry quietly: the complicated relationship we've had with our bodies for decades. From pinching belly fat as a teen to being picked last in PE to trying to “fix” the things we don't like… it's a journey so many midlife women know all too well.In this episode, I'm sharing my own story - how sports and strength training helped me shift from hating parts of my body to actually loving what it could do. Not just in the gym, but in everyday life. And why that shift matters more than ever now, as we age.This is about more than aesthetics. It's about seeing our bodies not as a problem to fix, but as a partner in the life we want to keep living - fully and actively - for decades to come.If you've ever felt frustrated with your body but also proud of what it's capable of, this one's for you.Send me your thoughts

This week, we're diving into body image—everything physical. How does our appearance intersect with our faith? What role should looks play in our identity and worth as Christians? Join us as we explore the connection between body, soul, and spirituality.

In the past, you've heard me talk about the epidemic of body dysmorphia which is spreading like wildfire thanks to social media. Body dysmorphia is defined as a mental disorder marked by an overwhelming and all-consuming preoccupation with a perceived flaw in one's appearance. One new subset is what's called muscle dysmorphia, a belief that one's body is too small, too skinny, and not muscular enough. This has also been called bigorexia, megarexia, and reverse anorexia. Mental health and medical experts are now warning that this is the latest eating disorder affecting our teens, as more and more teenagers, particularly our boys, are struggling with bigorexia. Much of this is being fueled by the presence of social media and the comparison it fosters, while promoting muscularity as a measure of one's value. We must help our kids understand that their identity is not to be found in what they look like. Rather, it's the value they already have in God's eyes that counts.

How can we learn to be at ease in our bodies so that we can be fully “in the moment” during sex? Anxiety about body image is one of the biggest obstacles to a happy, fulfilled sex life. Many people seek therapy to help them relax and enjoy sex with their partner, others struggle on in low-sex or no-sex relationships.  In this classic episode, Andrew talks to KATE MOYLE, a psychosexual and relationship therapist, about the knots we tie ourselves up in over how we look. Our culture's esteem for youth and beauty, (expressed in social media images of physical perfection) can make it very hard to inhabit our normal, imperfect bodies. Yet the self-confidence we need to enjoy sex is grounded in how we feel, not how we look.  As well as her work as a therapist, Kate Moyle is host of The Sexual Wellness Sessions Podcast, and also appeared on BBC Three's Sex on the Couch. Kate helps people to work through challenges in their sex lives and relationships; moving towards a place of sexual health, happiness and wellbeing. Her podcast hosts discussions that focus on normalising sex and relationships talk, and tackling the topics that are often left out of mainstream conversation; and she is a regular media contributor on the topic of sex and relationships.

In this heartfelt episode, Cristina Castagnini explores the complexities of body image and the pressures surrounding self-love and body positivity. She begins by expressing gratitude to listeners for choosing to invest in their healing and self-worth, acknowledging the effort it takes to engage with these important topics.Cristina challenges the pervasive cultural messages that urge people to “just love yourself” or achieve constant body positivity. She explains that, while well-intentioned, these slogans can create a new kind of pressure-making people feel like they're failing if they don't always love how they look. Through a moving client story, Cristina illustrates how the expectation of unwavering self-love is simply another form of perfectionism.SHOW NOTES: Click hereFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behind_the_bite

The ALL ME® Podcast The Sale of Steroids on Social Media - Imran Ahmed Summary In this episode of the ALL ME  Podcast, host Brian Parker engages in a crucial conversation with Imran Ahmed, founder of the Center for Countering Digital Hate. They discuss the pervasive issue of anabolic steroids and the alarming accessibility of these substances to youth, particularly through social media platforms like TikTok. Ahmed shares his personal journey and the motivations behind his work, emphasizing the need for awareness and action against the spread of hate and misinformation online. The conversation highlights the detrimental impact of social media on body image and mental health, particularly among teenagers, and presents findings from a study on TikTok's promotion of dangerous substances. This conversation delves into the alarming influence of social media on teen drug use, particularly the promotion of steroids by influencers. It discusses the legal loopholes that allow these practices to continue, the lack of accountability for social media companies, and the urgent need for transparency and regulation. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of empowering parents and raising awareness to combat these issues effectively. Takeaways Awareness is crucial in combating the spread of misinformation. The online and offline worlds are inseparable in shaping societal norms. Social media algorithms often promote harmful content for profit. Youth are particularly vulnerable to body image issues exacerbated by social media. The Center for Countering Digital Hate aims to hold social media companies accountable. Regulatory measures are necessary to create costs for harmful online content. Advertisers can play a role in reducing the spread of dangerous content. TikTok has a significant impact on youth, with many using it daily. Research shows that steroid-related content is prevalent on TikTok. The need for transparency and accountability in social media is paramount. Social media platforms are promoting harmful content to teens. Influencers are monetizing the promotion of illegal drugs. The algorithm tracks user behavior to target content effectively. There is a significant disconnect between what kids see online and what parents know. Section 230 allows social media companies to evade accountability. Transparency and accountability are crucial for social media regulation. Parents need to have open conversations with their kids about online content. Awareness is the first step towards change. Supporting organizations that advocate for change is essential. Legislation is being developed to protect kids online.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the All Me Podcast and Its Focus 02:00 Imran Ahmed's Background and Motivation 06:57 The Center for Countering Digital Hate: Mission and Strategies 15:10 The Impact of Social Media on Youth and Body Image 19:10 Research on TikTok's Promotion of Dangerous Substances 24:03 Quantifying the Problem: Steroid-Related Content on TikTok 26:20 The Influence of Social Media on Teen Drug Use 30:22 The Role of Influencers in Promoting Steroids 34:30 Legal Loopholes and Accountability Issues 38:46 The Need for Transparency and Regulation 45:30 Empowering Parents and Raising Awareness Resources ·         TikTok's toxic Trade Study: ·         Center for Countering Digital Hate: ·         Section 230: Follow Us: Twitter: @theTHF Instagram: @theTHF Facebook: Taylor Hooton Foundation #ALLMEPEDFREE Contact Us:  Twitter: @theTHF Instagram: @theTHF Facebook: Taylor Hooton Foundation #ALLMEPEDFREE Email:  Phone: 214-449-1990 ALL ME Assembly Programs:

They dive into boundary setting with friends, social media burnout, staying true to yourself in a trend-obsessed world, and how to rebuild self-trust when you've been over-giving.
