Happy Satiated Saturday! A common theme I've seen over the years working with women 1:1 is that for many (myself included), body image concerns started during teenage years. Ugh, a shifting and changing body is so difficult to be with, to trust, and to come home to. Your body is going to change again and again throughout your life. That can feel terrifying. When you've experienced past trauma where everything felt unknown and unstable, a body that changes and has different daily needs can be triggering. It can remind you of all that you've gone through, where you felt out of control. When you're in a time of transition with your body, there can be fear of the unknown. The anxiety is often less about what your body will look like, but about losing safety, acceptance, love, and respect. Your body will need your compassion, curiosity, and care as you navigate these scary changes.In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Natalie Rose, Eating Disorder Therapist and Coach, about: How Natalie has navigated the bodily changes she has been going through in her pregnancyHow she's kept her own food recovery intact along the wayThe journey of building trust in your bodyNavigating bodily discomfortEmbracing an internal rebelEbbing and flowing with body image challengesYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-to-trust-your-body-through-every-life-phaseWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Natalie Rose here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wakeupandsmelltherosay/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wakeupandsmelltherosayWebsite: www.wakeupandsmelltherosay.comYouTube: youtube.com/@wakeupandsmelltherosaySupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

What if your eating habits could teach you more about how you move through the world than you ever imagined?In this deeply personal episode, I share insights sparked by a recent labyrinth walk—one that cracked open an uncomfortable (but necessary) realization about how I navigate discomfort in all areas of life, not just around food.You'll hear:Why I've been rushing through everything—and how that mirrors my relationship with foodHow overwhelm transformed into a subtler discomfort I've been calling “boredom”The real reason I've been wandering into the kitchen lately—and what I've started doing insteadA surprising confession about my coaching business (and what's next for me)How movement, mindfulness, and even a shower can reveal what you're really avoidingIf you've ever used food to dodge uncomfortable thoughts, or felt stuck at the edge of your own growth, this one's for you.

In today's episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, we're diving into one of the toughest parts of eating disorder recovery: letting go of control. If you've been struggling with the need to control food, exercise, or your body, you're not alone. I know from personal experience how hard it is to start loosening the grip, but I'm here to talk about why it's so essential for healing and how to take those first steps toward true freedom. In this episode, I'll share some of my own journey, offer practical tips, and remind you that it's okay to take things slow.Here's what we'll cover:Why control becomes so deeply tied to eating disorders and recovery.How to recognise when control is holding you back from healing.Practical tips for loosening the grip on control without feeling overwhelmed.How to build trust with your body and embrace uncertainty in recovery.The importance of self-compassion when letting go of old habits.Letting go of control is a process, not a one-time fix, but every step forward counts. If you're ready to take back your life and build a healthier relationship with yourself, I've got you covered.Let me know your thoughts!

 In a world full of conflicting wellness advice, it's easy to feel lost, overwhelmed, and disconnected from what your body truly needs. In this episode, I open up about a deeply personal experience that taught me the importance of tuning out the noise and tuning into your intuition. We explore how our inner voice, when ignored, can lead us away from health—and how reclaiming it can bring us back to balance. Whether you're constantly second-guessing your food choices or feeling bombarded by trends, this episode will remind you that your body already knows the way—you just need to listen. Love this podcast?

In this episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, I'm addressing a question that I hear a lot: Will I get unfit if I stop doing cardio during eating disorder recovery? I totally get why this might be a worry, especially if you've been using exercise as a way to control your body or manage your food intake. But here's the thing – recovery is about healing your body, mind, and relationship with movement. In this episode, I'll talk about why it's important to take a step back from cardio in recovery and how you can focus on restoring balance and health without the pressure of intense exercise.Here's what we'll cover:Why stopping cardio can actually be a positive thing for your recovery.The impact of excessive cardio on your body and mental health during recovery.How to shift your mindset from “fitness” to “health” in a more balanced way.What to do instead of cardio to stay connected to your body and move for joy.How to release the fear of “losing fitness” and focus on true healing.It's normal to have worries about getting “unfit,” but I'll help you understand how recovery is about so much more than fitness. Let's talk about how you can embrace a healthier relationship with movement and let go of those cardio-driven fears.Let me know your thoughts!

Welcome to Episode 200 of Thrive Beyond Size!

In this episode, we're talking about something that can feel really uncomfortable in recovery – the messy middle. You know, that part of the journey when things aren't perfectly ‘recovered,' but you're also not in the same place as when you started. It can feel messy, confusing, and even a bit frustrating. But guess what? That messy middle is where a lot of the real growth happens. I'll share why embracing this phase is so important and how you can learn to sit with the discomfort, without feeling like you're doing it wrong. Recovery isn't linear, and it's okay to not have everything figured out. So, let's dive into how you can move through the messy middle with compassion, patience, and a bit of self-kindness.Let me know your thoughts!

In today's episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, I'm tackling a question that comes up a lot in recovery: Can you ever lose weight again after an eating disorder? It's a question that can stir up a lot of emotions and confusion, and I get it – it's not an easy one to answer. So, let's talk about it. I'll share my thoughts and experiences on why this question isn't as straightforward as it may seem, and why, in recovery, the focus should be on health, not weight loss. I'll also dive into what it really means to heal your relationship with your body and why weight doesn't define your worth or progress in recovery. If this question has been on your mind, I hope this episode brings some clarity and peace. Let me know your thoughts!

In today's solo episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, we're diving into a tricky topic: what to do when you've restored weight on a low intake and are wondering where to go from here. If you've found yourself in this situation, you're not alone, and it's completely normal to feel a little uncertain. I'll share my personal experience with weight restoration and why it's so important to focus on increasing your intake to nourish your body properly. We'll also discuss how to navigate this phase in recovery with compassion, making sure you're moving toward health, rather than staying stuck in a restrictive mindset. Recovery is about more than just weight – it's about learning to trust your body and fuel it for long-term wellness. SOCIALS:Instagram: @flourishwithciandra @recovertoflourish_podTikTok: @flourishwithciandraWebsite: https://flourishwithciandra.com/Contact: info@flourishwithciandra.com

Have you ever felt disconnected from your body—or grieved the version of it you used to know? I have. And in this episode of Unleash Your Inner Creative, I'm talking with disability advocate and author Jayne Mattingly about something we don't hear enough about: body grief, and how it can quietly block our creativity and self-love.Here's what I've come to realize: when we lose trust in our bodies, we often lose connection to ourselves and therefore our creative voice. But when we start rebuilding that trust—even slowly—we open the door to healing, peace, and creative freedom.Jayne created a powerful framework to help us understand and move through body grief, and in this episode, she shares her story, how it applies to you, and how getting into a relationship with your body can shift everything—from how you heal to how you create.From this episode, you'll learn:-What body grief is and how to recognize it in your own life-The 7 stages of body grief and how to move through them-How to begin rebuilding trust with your body—at any stage-Why healing your relationship with your body can unlock your creativityTW: Eating Disorders and Mental Health More on JayneUnleash is Nominated for a Webby Award and we need your help to win!

In today's episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, we're tackling a big question – Should I get into the fitness world while recovering from an eating disorder? If you've ever wondered whether it's okay to pursue fitness during recovery or if it might set you back, you're not alone. As someone who has navigated this very path, I'll share my personal experience and offer some realistic advice on how to approach fitness in a way that supports your recovery, rather than hindering it. We'll talk about listening to your body, finding balance, and how to avoid falling into old patterns. Recovery is about building a healthy relationship with yourself and your body, and fitness can be part of that, but only if it's approached with care and mindfulness.SOCIALS:Instagram: @flourishwithciandra @recovertoflourish_podTikTok: @flourishwithciandraWebsite: https://flourishwithciandra.com/Contact: info@flourishwithciandra.com

Hello everyone and welcome back to Thrive Beyond Size. This episode was partly inspired by my husband returning to school and watching how meticulous he is about his assignments. The effort he puts into things is admirable but not sustainable and I realized that striving for perfection is about the illusion of control. It correlates to healing relationships with food in a very real way. If you've spent years trying to control food, just holding onto the reins of your relationship with food so tightly, you probably believe that you have control and are safe, right? But something I call the control paradox comes into play which is that the tighter we clamp down, the less control we actually have. The more we restrict, the more chaotic and compulsive things become. So today I dive into the control paradox: what it means, how it works, and how to break free.    I explore three very important questions: 1) Why do we believe that control equals safety in the first place? 2) How do restriction and rigid food rules backfire on us, making food feel even more chaotic? 3) How can we step out of this control paradox and into a place of more trust and freedom with food? A lot of our food rules are shaped from a very young age and when we also factor diet culture into the mix, we take in the primary message that our bodies can't be trusted and control is the answer. Control makes us feel like we might be safe. But as soon as we slip up, we spiral into chaos and feel very unsafe. So the answer actually lies in trust. Learning to trust our bodies again. And that's what I explore: why trust is so scary but vital to intuitive eating and breaking out of the control paradox.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

In this episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, I'm exploring something many people don't talk about – the addiction to feeling hungry. If you've ever felt a sense of control or comfort from hunger, this episode is for you. As someone who's walked through eating disorder recovery, I know how an eating disorder can become addictive in ways that go beyond the food itself. In this episode, I'll talk about why hunger can feel like a source of security, how this pattern develops, and why it's so challenging to break free. I'll also share some tips on how to start healing this addictive cycle and reconnect with your body's true needs.

In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Glazebrook, a fitness professional with over 20 years of experience. Lisa's journey began in the world of boxing, but it was her diagnosis with MS that led her to a deeper understanding of true healing. Through her own experience, she discovered that trusting your body is the key to unlocking its wisdom~ and when you trust your body, it begins to trust you back. Lisa shares how embracing self-love and body awareness creates more harmonious energy, allowing for greater resilience, balance and healing. We explore what it means to truly listen to your body's signals, release fear based control, and step into a place of deep inner connection. If you have ever felt disconnected from your body or pressured to push through pain, this episode will inspire you to tune in, let go, and trust the process of healing.

Finding Body Peace with Nina Manolson Guest Nina Manolson  Summary: This episode of *Come Back to Love®* is one that will bring you straight into your heart—deeply, powerfully, and with so much compassion.    Did you know that 99% of women judge their bodies at least 9 times a day—every single day?  The pressure to look a certain way is relentless, and the diet industry only fuels the cycle of shame, self-criticism, and disconnection from our true selves. Instead of bringing us closer to health and happiness, it keeps us stuck in a loop of never feeling enough.   But what if there was another way? A way to **listen to your body, honor it, and build a relationship based on trust and kindness rather than control and punishment**?   That's exactly what we're diving into with my special guest, Nina Manolson, MA, Body-Peace® Coach. Nina is a master at helping women shift from body struggle to body peace, guiding them to reconnect with their bodies in a way that feels nourishing, empowering, and deeply loving.   In this episode, we explore:   How to break free from the cycle of body shame and self-judgment   Why traditional dieting keeps you disconnected from your body's wisdom How to create a personal “map” back to body trust and self-compassion  Practical steps to treat yourself with the love and care you deserve   If you've ever looked in the mirror and wished you could feel *at home* in your body instead of at war with it, this episode is for you. It's time to reclaim your relationship with yourself and Come Back to Love®—body, mind, and soul.  Bio: Nina Manolson, MA, is the founder of Body-Peace® and a Body-Peace® coach, dedicated to helping women end the war with food and body so they can feel truly at home in their bodies.

You can't control your health any more than you can control the weather. In this episode, I explore how holding individuals responsibe for their health is a relatively recent phenomenon tied to capitalism and neoliberalism, contrasting it with historical perspectives where health was viewed as a collective responsibility.

Welcome back to another episode, everyone. I'm very excited about the year ahead. Learning is one of my core values and last year I started doing training in trauma. At first, I simply wanted to have a trauma-informed approach to my coaching but the process intrigued me and opened so many realizations about the connection between trauma and healing around food and body. So now I'm doing true trauma training, the Gentle Trauma Release method, and I want to talk about why I'm doing that in today's episode. Why it's so important and why I think it's essential for me to learn. So join me as I explore why trauma is relevant to building body trust. It's first important to define trauma, I believe. Many people think about big life events when we talk about trauma, like the wildfires in LA right now or violence or loss. But trauma can also be broader and include smaller less obvious experiences. Being bullied as a child or growing up constantly criticized. And these traumas overwhelm our ability to cope. Trauma often shows up as physical symptoms like headaches, fatigue or digestive issues or in emotional symptoms like difficulty trusting. And all these effects interrupt our relationships with our bodies and with food. And that's what I talk about in this episode. How trauma is affecting our body trust. How our nervous systems are responding. What we can do to heal trauma and create a safe supportive space for ourselves and our bodies again. __About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Helloooo my loves!!In this episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, I'm tackling the big question: Should you go ‘all in' in eating disorder recovery? It's a term you might have heard thrown around, but what does it really mean? As an eating disorder coach, I'll break down the pros and cons of the ‘all in' approach and explore why it can be both a powerful and challenging part of recovery. I'll also share some personal insights and offer guidance on how to decide what feels right for you in your journey. Recovery is a deeply individual process, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach. I hope this episode answers some of the questions you may have had about going 'all-in'. SOCIALS:Instagram: @flourishwithciandra @recovertoflourish_podTikTok: @flourishwithciandraWebsite: https://flourishwithciandra.com/Contact: info@flourishwithciandra.com

Happy Satiated Saturday! Something I've been noticing is how much we're taught to see any symptom as a sign that something is "wrong" and that we have to embark on a "healing journey" to "fix" the symptom. For a moment, try this out on your body. Tell it that there is something wrong that you need to fix. What do you notice? How does your body respond to that?Striving to “heal” your body sends the message to your body that you are in danger. Your body activates your sympathetic nervous system and takes all your internal resources away from repair toward survival. You cannot heal in a fight or flight state. To decrease any bodily symptom or food coping mechanism, you have to stop thinking of yourself as broken and needing to be fixed. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Andrea Nakayama, Functional Medicine Nutritionist, educator, and founder of Functional Nutrition Alliance about: The gaps in traditional healthcareShifting perspective of a "healing journey"Misconceptions of nutritionThe basics of a health foundationUnderstanding the body's signalsThe three tiers of nutritional masteryRole of Narrative Medicine in recoverySupporting the body's natural healingYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/narrative-medicine-in-understanding-your-bodyWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Andrea:Websites: https://www.andreanakayama.com/https://www.fxnutrition.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreanakayama/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ReplenishPDXFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AndreaNakayama.pageLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreanakayama/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Hello hello and welcome back to Thrive Beyond Size. Today I'm tackling a topic that's especially tricky during the holiday season. Emotional eating. Many clients are asking about it in calls and it's coming up in my own life as well. This season is the most amazing and most stressful time for us so it can be overwhelming. We deal with excitement, nostalgia, sadness, and a whole range of other emotions. And when our emotions run high, food becomes part of the equation. Maybe we eat too much. Maybe we avoid some foods. I want to talk about that and I want to first state that emotional eating is not bad. It's human. I just want to unpack it and examine it.   This time of year just feels so much more intense than any other season and that directly affects our relationship with food. There are so many people, memories, grief, joy and time demands on us that we really do start to run on empty. Food becomes a way to cope with vulnerability and creates a sense of comfort. Then we're bombarded with messages to let go and indulge but also stay on track to get control back in January. The messaging is conflicting. “[But] mindful eating isn't about eating perfectly, it's about being present with your food.” Find satisfaction and eat without guilt. So this episode is not about how to fix or eliminate emotional eating, but rather explore it as something to understand. I'll talk more about why the holiday season amplifies our emotions. I'll reframe emotional eating. And I'll share some practical tools for navigating it with curiosity, compassion, and body trust. Let's respond to ourselves with kindness this season.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Hello there, friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I love this time of year. The twinkle lights, the snow, the frost on the trees, it all makes me so happy. I love Christmas music, yes, and I love all the Christmas decorations everywhere. I love the get-togethers, eggnog, treats, and parties. But there are also a lot of challenges that are brought up at this time of year, especially around body trust. The holidays are associated with family gatherings, friends, festive meals and food. It sometimes stirs up complicated feelings around eating, hunger, and around body image. It can be very stressful. So how should you approach it? What can we all do to make things easier on ourselves over the holiday season? That's what this episode is all about.   What does it actually mean to practice body trust during the holiday season?  It's about staying connected to your own needs and approaching food with a joyful mindset instead of a pressured one. And it's about navigating challenging family dynamics and conversations. We often give ourselves these pep talks to “enjoy but in moderation” or “indulge but not too much” and “get back on track in January” but that just creates an exhausting tug of war inside us. So today I talk about how you can enjoy this time of year without being excessive or restrictive. I talk about staying present with food throughout the meal. Don't tune out and eat mindlessly but truly enjoy what you're eating. It's okay to stop when you're full and it's okay to have seconds if you aren't. Listen to your body, not the people around you. I talk about paying attention to self-care so we don't lose ourselves in all the hustle and bustle. And I talk about how to set boundaries during gatherings to avoid triggering conversations about weight. Join me as we talk about truly enjoying the holidays with body trust and a sense of peace in place.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Hello friends. Today I'm tackling a question I receive a lot from potential clients and people interested in intuitive eating. The question is can I still practice intuitive eating if I'm taking a GLP-1 medication? I've spoken about these medications a lot on this podcast. They're prescribed for people managing type 2 diabetes but sometimes they are also prescribed for weight loss. They control blood sugar levels and can also impact appetite. So today I want to talk about how they operate and then explore how intuitive eating can still be practiced while on a medication that alters hunger cues.    It's important to understand exactly what intuitive eating actually is in order to fully discuss this question. Intuitive eating was developed by two dieticians in the mid-1990s, Evelyn Tribble and Elise Risch, and it's based on ten principles. At the core of all the principles is rebuilding trust with your body and tuning in to hunger and fullness cues to honour your body's needs. So how does this work if you're using a medication that alters hunger cues? Well, it is possible, let me answer the question directly, but it requires adapting some of the principles of intuitive eating to fit your unique experience. I talk about how GLP-1 medications work, what they don't fix, and how to approach intuitive eating differently, with the mindset of approaching food with curiosity and some respect. I will talk about body trust and releasing the idea that our food choices define our worth. So join me as I dive into this question, one I get all the time, so we can understand it together.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Happy Satiated Saturday! It has become this norm that we "should" all be trying to lose weight all the time. And because of this, of course, you would want to lose weight. Your body seeks attunement with other bodies. When everyone around you is also trying to lose weight, your body interprets this as the path to safety and connection. Releasing the need to change your body's weight can feel scary and even threatening to your well-being. We need others to survive. If those you rely on connect with you over dieting and losing weight, an association can occur that not dieting is dangerous to your survival.It can take time and practice to question the impulse to change your body's appearance. By practicing this though, you will start to be the person who sends a message to other bodies that safety and belonging can occur simply through being together as we are.In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Alexis Conason, Clinical Psychologist and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist about: The anti-diet movement and what it isDiet culture trying to co-opt mindful eatingBody image challengesBuilding resiliency against diet cultureThe importance of self compassionNavigating food choices mindfullyWhat eating what you want actually meansAction steps you can take to practice anti-dietingYou can read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-it-means-to-love-your-body-and-eat-what-you-wantDoors closing to the Somatic Eating® Program on Monday at midnight. JOIN THE SOMATIC EATING® PROGRAM!: https://www.somaticeating.com/With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Alexis:Website: https://drconason.com/ https://www.conasonpsychologicalservices.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theantidietplan/Book: The Diet Free RevolutionSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/discount/STEPHANIEMARA?rfsn=7433250.c99684Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensound.co...

Episode Summary In this episode, Erin Skinner welcomes Haley Smith, a Certified Fertility Awareness Practitioner and the founder of Innate Rhythm and the Fertility Freedom Podcast. Haley's mission is clear: to empower women overlooked by the traditional healthcare system with body literacy, self-trust, and fertility awareness. Together, they discuss how women can optimize fertility through nourishment, mindfulness, and lifestyle adjustments. Haley explains how adding nutrient-dense foods, improving sleep, and managing stress can create the right environment for conception. She also shares her personal experience of how emotional and physical stress impacted her menstrual cycle and fertility. Erin and Haley dive deep into the connection between safety signals to the body and successful conception, emphasizing that fertility is about more than just biology—it's about creating space in your life for new possibilities. Episode Highlights Mindful Eating for Fertility: Haley advocates for adding quality high proteins and whole foods to support fertility, rather than cutting things out. It's about sending safety signals to the body through nourishment. Body's Safety Signals & Fertility: Stress, over-exercising, and emotional turmoil can signal to the body that it's not safe to conceive. Haley shares how her own stressful breakup and calorie deficit caused her to stop ovulating for nine months. Fertility Awareness & Tracking: Haley highlights the importance of tracking your cycle and temperature to understand when you're ovulating. She explains that even if you're bleeding, you may not be ovulating—something only tracking can reveal. Foundations of Fertility: Before diving into supplements or other interventions, it's essential to focus on the foundations of sleep, stress management, exercise, and nutrition. Haley emphasizes starting with small changes like getting sunlight in the morning and increasing protein intake. Tailored Health Protocols: Haley explains her approach to working with clients, which starts with gathering data through cycle charting, lab work, and health intake forms. This helps her create personalized health protocols, with a commitment to at least four months of focused change. Resources Mentioned Haley's Practice: Innate Rhythm.

Summary In this episode of the Men Unscripted podcast, host Aaron Flores interviews Travis (alias), a cis white male in his mid-20s, about his journey with body image and food. Travis shares that he didn't have serious body image issues growing up, but his perspective changed when he met his now-wife, who works in the eating disorder field and is a fat woman. This opened his eyes to the societal issues surrounding body image. Travis also discusses his experience with Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) and the shame and fear associated with his limited food choices. He highlights the importance of neutrally using the word 'fat' and reclaiming it from its negative connotations. They explore topics such as the impact of childhood experiences on food aversions, the role of set point theory in challenging negative self-talk, the challenges of seeking treatment for ARFID, and the importance of acknowledging and grieving the missed opportunities caused by food aversions. Travis also shares his thoughts on the societal expectations of masculinity and the importance of embracing a wider range of emotions. Keywords body image, body trust, eating disorder, fat, shame, fear, ARFID, food aversions, set point theory, negative self-talk, grieving, masculinity, emotions, fat liberation movement Takeaways Body image issues can be influenced by societal factors and personal relationships. Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) is a real and debilitating eating disorder that is often misunderstood. Using the word 'fat' neutrally and without judgment can help reduce stigma and promote body acceptance. Shame and fear around food choices can impact one's relationship with their body and overall well-being. Childhood experiences can shape food aversions and contribute to the development of ARFID. Set point theory can help challenge negative self-talk and provide a different perspective on food and body image. Seeking treatment for ARFID can be challenging, especially due to limited understanding and resources. Grieving the missed opportunities caused by food aversions is an important part of the healing process. Societal expectations of masculinity can hinder emotional expression and make it difficult for men to seek help. Exploring a wider range of emotions and embracing joy and happiness is essential for overall well-being. Links Maintenance Phase Podcast Feelings Wheel What is ARFID?

If we're not dieting, won't we just be completely out of control with food? That's the risk when we feel like we can't trust ourselves. In this episode, we talk about what self-trust is -- including how we thought about it before recovery and how we think about it now. And maybe most importantly, how we developed more of it! This episode was livestreamed to our private community so we also answer some listener questions about personal experiences with self-trust.  We discuss: trusting yourself not to binge self-alliance and self-abandonment the role of self-sabotage being mad that versus being mad at what needs to be in place before we keep promises to ourselves? the stories we tell ourselves Join our growing support community. This community is for you if you want a safe space to work through your daily struggles with food and body image. Community membership includes livestream episode recordings (online), monthly Zoom support meetings, a private Facebook group and member-only Q&A episodes.

On my last podcast episode, Heidi Andersen and I had a fantastic discussion about embodiment and how vital it is to be in your body in order to heal your relationship with it.  (If you didn't listen to it yet, check it out here!)   After Heidi and I recorded that episode, I told her she had an open invitation to come back onto the show and expand on anything that we had just discussed. This invitation turned into the idea of her walking me through some embodiment exercises on the show that you could do as well. We immediately scheduled another recording and voila!  This week's episode was done! Just a reminder about Heidi and why she's the perfect person to be talking about this topic.  Heidi is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor, Certified Body Trust® Specialist, Certified Safe and Sound Protocol Provider, Registered Yoga Teacher and Embodiment Specialist. She currently supports clients with Reclaiming Beauty, an outpatient group practice of body-centered psychotherapists specializing in weight inclusive treatment for the intersection of trauma, attachment wounds, and eating disorders through a body liberation lens and somatic approach. Heidi believes embodiment heals and combines her studies of Somatic Internal Family Systems, Embodied Recovery for Eating Disorders, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and the Center for Body Trust® in her support of her clients. She is also the author of the Reclaiming Beauty Journal and Wisdom Deck, a resource created to support women in building a self-compassionate relationship with their body. As we discussed in last week's episode, Heidi defines embodiment as:   The ability to land safely in our body in the present moment, just how we are. For many of us, this takes some practice, patience, and guidance.  And this is where Heidi comes in.  When we discussed this episode, Heidi told me that she had a "million" embodiment exercises.  In the interest of time, she chose to do three. We start the episode with talking about why it's so important to work toward embodiment.  Some of the many reasons for this are: Noticing how your body can be a resource (this might be news to your parts!) Learning how your body can help you regulate your nervous system Helping to shift the "violent" thoughts we tend to send toward our bodies  Feeling comfortable with no longer avoiding your body Heidi then walks me through three different exercises, checking in with my parts as we go along.  It was an insightful experience for me, and I know it will be for you too! Again, connecting with your body is a necessary part of healing your relationship with it, and I hope that these exercises help you to either begin that journey or further the work you're already doing.  Take a listen!

What is alive in you right now? What does it mean to return to the body as the place where we experience life? The concept of embodiment has become more present in the lexicon of body image and body liberation. While deeply important to our collective divestment from diet culture, exploring your own embodiment may feel confusing, intangible, or incongruent with your lived experience. Neathery Falchuk, LCSW-S, CGP (they/them) joins us this week to dig all the way in: What is embodiment, really? What does it look like? Feel like? Is it a destination, or something different? And how can we practice it?  We're diving into the answers to these questions and more with the amazing, wise, funny, Neathery -- who also speaks to intersectionality in embodiment as a queer, trans and non-binary, fat, neurodivergent, white Latinx therapist.  I can't wait to hear from you on this episode. I think it will bring together a lot of things we've been talking about on the show: from our relationship with food, to the identities we hold, and what it means to experience the world in the body we have. We discuss so (so!) much in this one, including… What's on Neathery's plate (hint: baby-led weaning and oatmeal) Neathery's experience of disembodiment as a queer and trans teen How disordered eating develops without embodiment Why embodiment isn't always a positive experience Barriers to embodiment, including those we can't control Working through trauma and the importance of co-regulation Self-compassion as a tool to connect to ourselves Learning to trust the wisdom of our body Grief work and its connection to embodiment The need for more access to supportive communities in the embodiment and body liberation space   Neathery Falchuk (they/them) is a queer, trans and non-binary, fat, neurodivergent, white Latinx therapist, licensed clinical social worker supervisor, certified group psychotherapist, certified Body Trust® provider, and certified meditation teacher. Neathery is the founder of Ample and Rooted, an inclusive psychotherapy, consulting, and training practice specializing in working with LGBTQ+ communities, eating disorders, body shame, sex and sexuality, gender, relationship concerns, trauma, mindfulness, grief and loss, and substance use.
