Wellness trends move fast, yet volume two of The Next Frontier Files proves some predictions age well. Revisiting year two of the show, host Jenn Trepeck tracks the guests who forecasted metabolic health, gut health, and body positivity long before they became mainstream conversations, and shows how precision medicine and permission became the defining threads of an entire year.Jenn Trepeck brings listeners of Salad with a Side of Fries a look back at the guest predictions that shaped the year two, August 2020 - August 2021, grading them against what really happened since.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ How telehealth and virtual training went from pandemic workaround to a permanent part of everyday healthcare✅ Why metabolic health and gut health became two of the most repeated topics in wellness over the following years✅ What guests predicted about wearable technology, gene editing, and the future of human biology✅ How body positivity and permission-based wellness reshaped the conversation around health and self-imageThe Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into real-life wellness and weight loss, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Year two overview explains how telehealth shifted from workaround to permanent wellness trends infrastructure04:42 Chad Levy discusses virtual training, and Amy Marshall shares her perspective on Telehealth and Zoom technology06:55 Chris Burres introduces longevity as a frontier, and Natasa Billeci mentions AI and propels the precision medicine conversation08:49 Toxin exposure and cellular absorption enter the conversation through Tim James' product launch12:01 Corey Phelps highlights her views on meditation and breathwork12:58 Dr. Casey Means discusses metabolic health tools and using technology to return to basics15:53 Gut health gets its first mention by Mike Millner, predicting it is only 2% understood16:53 Dr. Anthony Balduzzi predicts gene therapy, CRISPR, and implantable technology merging with human biology18:25 Catharine Arnston embraces preventative medicine19:13 Sarah Nilsen expounds about CBD and cannabinoid research20:12 Jay Shifman comments on BMI and asks why is it still being used21:17 Sarah Malouf and Farah M.

Tina has done so much healing, and her question becomes: when is recovery “enough”?In this conversation, listener Tina shares a recovery story that will feel deeply familiar to many listeners: years of restriction, calorie counting, binge eating, fear foods, food obsession—and then a long, thoughtful climb toward something much steadier.She's no longer trapped in the binge-restrict cycle. Food doesn't dominate her life the way it once did. She can eat fear foods. Enjoy social meals. Loosen the rules. And yet…She still has some food noise. She still loosely knows the numbers. She'd still happily snap her fingers and lose a few pounds. So does that mean she's not really recovered? Or is this what recovery actually looks like for many people, not perfection, but a sustainable middle ground?In this episode, we talk about the so-called “messy middle” of recovery, the pressure to achieve perfect food freedom, and why all-or-nothing thinking can sneak into healing just as easily as it sneaks into dieting.In this episode, you'll hear: Whether “fully recovered” is even a meaningful or realistic standard Why the internet's version of recovery can sometimes create unnecessary pressure The difference between disordered eating and normal human imperfection When calorie awareness is useful, and when it becomes a problem Why some structure can support recovery instead of sabotaging it The difference between occasional overeating and binge eating How perfectionism can distort your expectations of healing Why recovery may be less about arriving somewhere and more about ongoing flexibility How to decide whether your current relationship with food is actually costing you anything This is such an important conversation for anyone who has ever wondered:If I still stress about food sometimes… am I doing recovery wrong?Because maybe healing isn't about becoming a perfectly intuitive, salad-in-a-meadow person.Maybe it's about building a relationship with food that gives you your life back.New to the show?

TRIGGERWARNUNG & SPOILER ALERT: Es werden Inhalte des Romans gespoilert, besprochene Themen sind Vergewaltigung, sexuelle Übergriffe und sexuelle Gewalt.Die Werbekampagne zum heute vorgestellten Buch könnte irreführender nicht sein. Chapeau! Angepriesen als neuestes Werk der “unangefochtenen Königin des Strandbuches” Jennifer Weiner, die stattliche 15 No. 1 auf der Bestsellerliste der New York Times ihr Eigen nennen kann, und deren klassische Heldin in ihren eigenen Worten so charakterisiert wird: “ein glückliches Ende finden, während sie sich selbst treu bleibt.”Bei einem Werbeauftritt in Amerikas - meint hier The United States of - berühmtester Guten-Morgen-Fernsehshow “Good Morning America!” unterhält sich Autorin Jennifer Weiner einige kurze Minuten mit den 3 Hosts der Sendung über ihr gerade veröffentlichtes Werk “That Summer”, und wir erfahren:1. Jennifer Weiners Mutter ist vor kurzem gestorben, und eine der wichtigsten Lektionen, die sie von ihr gelernt hat, ist Body Positivity, also das Wohlsein im eigenen Körper, dessen Möglichkeiten kennend und wertschätzend, unabhängig davon, ob das heute zum Glück immer mehr schwindende Traummaß des 90-60-90 erreicht wird.2. Gefragt, warum ihre Heldinnen immer dem gleichen Muster zu folgen scheinen, antwortet sie mit einem Zitat von Toni Morrison, bei der sie auch mal einen Schreibkurs besucht hat: “Wenn es ein Buch gibt, dass du lesen musst, und es steht nicht in der Buchhandlung, musst du es selbst schreiben. (Ziemlich sicher gibt es eine bessere als diese sehr freie Übersetzung.)3. “That Summer” wurde während der Pandemie geschrieben, als sich Jennifer Weiner zu Hause mit ihrer Familie ununterbrochen konfrontiert sah und sich zu einem Platz schreiben wollte, den sie liebt. Voilá: Cape Cod.4. Zwei der Protagonistinnen sind 15 Jahre alt, so alt wie die Tochter der Autorin. Sie ansehend fragt sie sich: Hat sich die Welt geändert, seitdem ich in diesem Alter war? Habe ich mich geändert? Und wenn ja, ist es jetzt besser?5. Wenn es nicht besser ist, was muss getan werden, was muss ich tun, damit sie besser wird?Und weil die Show Good Morning America! heißt, lächeln alle in die Kamera, pandemiebedingt in 4 Kacheln und nicht im selben Raum. Jennifer Weiner hält noch kurz das Buch in die Kamera und winkt.Ähnlich war die Ankündigung des Buches auf einer der von mir frequentierten Empfehlungslisten. Could have fooled me! Hat es auch.Zurück zu 4. Ich nummeriere hier ja nicht umsonst: Hat sich die Welt geändert, und falls ja, ist es besser? Ja, vielleicht, hoffentlich, sonst könnte man den ganzen Bumms auch anzünden.Zurück zur eingangs erwähnten Marketingkampagne und einem radikalen Bruch mit Studio Bs nirgendwo niedergeschriebenem, mündlich aber öfter formulierten Anspruch, hier in denglish, DIE STORY NICHT ZU SPOILERN:Bei “That Summer” handelt es sich nicht um ein unbeschwertes Buch, das zur Sonnencremebeschmierten und zwischen den Seiten Sand ansammelnden Sommerlektüre empfohlen werden kann, weil der Plot den champagnerinduzierten Schwips verstärkt, auch wenn das in fast allen Empfehlungen und Besprechungen so erscheint.Und ein weiterer Beweis der These, dass Kritiker*innen nicht immer das rezensierte Werk tatsächlich auch - wenigstens ansatzweise und überfliegend - gelesen haben.“That Summer” ist die Geschichte zweier unterschiedlicher Frauen, beide heißen Diana, die eine wird Daisy genannt. Sie verfolgen geradezu konträre Lebensentwürfe. Während Diana als erfolgreiche Vertreterin durch die Staaten reist und ein luxuriöses Leben als Single führt, finden wir Diana, die sich als Kochlehrerin ein berufliches Standbein aufgebaut hat, als Organisatorin, Putzfrau, seelischer Mülleimer und mit dezenter Unaufmerksamkeit durch ihren ein paar Jahre älteren Ehemann Hal und mit offenerer Abneigung durch ihre 15jährige Tochter Beatrice bedachte, ein wenig einsame Frau, deren äußere Lebensumstände Zufriedenheit bringen sollten, sie aber zunehmend irritieren. Die beiden begegnen sich, weil Dianas Mails aufgrund eines Tippfehlers in der E-Mail-Adresse bei Daisy landen. Bei einem ersten Treffen der unterschiedlich situierten Frauen sind sich beide sympathisch, eine Freundschaft bahnt sich an.Der Plot von “That Summer” wird in 2 zeitlichen Linien entwickelt: rückblickend auf die Geschehnisse eines Sommers, eben “That Summer”, deren Protagonistin Diana ist, und in der Jetztzeit, mit reflektierenden Rückblicken auf Daisys Geschichte und immer weiteren Enthüllungen über Dianas Leben.Im Sommer 1987 hat Diana als 16jährige einen Sommer auf Cape Cod verbracht, als Aushilfe in einem befreundeten Haushalt. Erste Liebe zu einem Collegeboy, zum Abschluss des Aufenthalte eine Party, nach der sich Diana zunächst an nicht viel erinnern kann. Als die Erinnerungen an diese Nacht zurückkehren, wird ihr Leben ein anderes sein und werden: Sie wurde vergewaltigt, ein 2. Student hat sie festgehalten, ein Dritter zugesehen, aber nicht eingegriffen. Diana verlässt in der Folge die Schule ohne Abschluss und wird nie Kinder haben.Sprung in die Jetztzeit: Was Diana will, ist Rache. Der Beginn ihrer aufkeimenden Freundschaft mit Daisy ist zunächst vorgetäuscht. Durch einen Zufall hat sie ihren Vergewaltiger von damals wiedererkannt und möchte auch die Frau bestrafen, die in ihren Augen alles hat: eine Familie, eine Tochter. Zunehmend bekommt sie Skrupel, wird aber ihre Geschichte zu erkennen geben, mit weitreichenden Folgen.Das Buch stellt komplexe Fragen zur Verantwortung sexueller Übergriffe: nach der des Vergewaltigers, nach der der Eingeweihten. Es ist ein Werk über die Auswirkungen eines lange Jahre verheimlichten Angriffs auf das Leben der Beteiligten, die Macht und Auswirkungen von Rache. Wie hart sollen solche Verbrechen bestraft, oder sollten sie vergeben werden? Jennifer Weiner erwähnt explizit die me too Bewegung, die viele Frauen ermutigte und inspirierte, über ihre traumatischen, manchmal aber - und das ist fast unheimlicher - gewöhnlichen und als alltäglich wahrgenommenen Erfahrungen mit sexuellen Übergriffen und sexueller Gewalt zu sprechen und zu schreiben. Dabei finden sich in “That Summer” alle möglichen Formen, in denen diese gewaltvollen Erfahrungen in unserer Gesellschaft behandelt werden.Mannigfaltig sind die Entschuldigungsformeln: “Jungs müssen sich ihre Hörner abstoßen.” So formuliert es der alte Vater des Vergewaltigers oder auch kürzer “So sind junge Männer eben.”Dem Opfer wird eine Mitschuld gegeben: “Sie wusste doch, worauf sie sich einlässt, wenn sie auf die Abschlussparty des Sommers geht und dort auch noch Alkohol trinkt.”“Vielleicht hätte sie nicht so flirten sollen.”In den Diskussionen wird darauf hingewiesen, dass sich der damalige Täter von damals geändert hätte, und dass er vielleicht nicht so gehandelt hätte, wenn man ihm nicht die Möglichkeit gegeben hätte.Ein Grund, der letztendlich sowohl Diana als auch Daisy in ihrem Umgang mit den Folgen der Vergewaltigung zur Offenheit zwingt, ist Daisys 15jährige Tochter. Der drohende Schrecken sich immer wiederholender Ereignisse führt beide dazu, über die Ereignisse dieses Sommers zu sprechen.Nun ist natürlich die Frage, warum “That Summer” noch in diesem - mittlerweile doch abgekühlten - Sommer gelesen werden sollte: Jennifer Weiner hat einen Roman geschrieben, der sich mit überraschenden Wendungen einem schwierigen Teil unserer Gesellschaft nähert. “That Summer” ist leicht zu lesen, aber keine einfache Lektüre. Wie auch, wenn die Auswirkungen einer Vergewaltigung für die Betroffenen lang und traumatisch sind, die niemals vollkommen geheilt werden können und ein anderes Leben erzwingen? Jennifer Weiner nähert sich der komplexen Thematik nuanciert und präzise, aber nicht reißerisch oder polemisch.Ihr Verdienst ist es, die Möglichkeiten zu zeigen, die eine sich verändernde Gesellschaft bietet und die Kraft weiblicher Freundschaften zu feiern. Das mögen manche als kitschig empfinden, ist aber einer der Gründe, warum der Bums hier noch nicht brennt.Im Internet (wo sonst?) wurde “That Summer” kontrovers diskutiert. Es wurde auf einige Inkonsistenzen hingewiesen, im Wesentlichen hangelten sich gelegentliche Kritiken an den entschuldigenden Argumentationslinien der Vergewaltiger und ihrer Kompliz*innen entlang, eine politische Agenda der Verrisse war dabei oft unverkennbar.“That Summer” und die Diskussion könnte - wieder einmal - ein Anstoß sein, über unsere Gesellschaft zu sprechen und zwar miteinander. Als die me too Bewegung bzw. die Berichte und Auswirkungen - Stichwort Cancel Culture unsere Breitengrade erreichte, wurden in meinem Bekanntenkreis in den diversen Bars und Kneipen der Stadt viele erhitzte Diskussionen geführt, deren Schwerpunkt immer Fragen waren, ob es wirklich gerechtfertigt sei, dass z. B. ein begabter Schauspieler seine Jobs infolge von Anschuldigungen verliert, obwohl noch kein Gericht seine Schuld festgestellt hat. Nie, wirklich nie, wurde mir oder den anwesenden Freundinnen und Frauen die Frage gestellt, was denn unsere Erfahrungen sind. Versuche, über die Kultur sexueller Übergriffe und Vergewaltigungen und ihre Folgen und Auswirkungen zu sprechen, hat es immer wieder gegeben. In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten gab es immer wieder Berichte und Studien, immer schockierend, in welcher Vielzahl und Gewöhnlichkeit diese Übergriffe erfolgen.Ich bin es satt. Ich habe keine, wirklich gar keine Lust, über die Folgen für die Vergewaltiger und Arschgrapscher zu sprechen. Es ist mir egal, ob sie Freundinnen und Freunde und Jobs und eine Karriere und den Respekt der Gesellschaft verlieren und ob sie vor den Enthüllungen in ihrer Profession die Kunst auf eine neue Stufe gehoben haben. Immer und immer wieder kommen Männer mit ihrem übergriffigen Verhalten durch. Der letzte US-Präsident ist dabei nur ein besonders krasses Beispiel, gewählt wurde er trotzdem, auch von der Mehrheit der weißen Frauen. Es sind nicht nur Länder wie Indien oder der südamerikanische Kontinent, in dem diese Übergriffe stattfinden. Es sind eure Freundinnen, eure Nachbarinnen, die Barkeeperinnen, die Kolleginnen. Sie alle haben diese Geschichten auf Lager, der einzige Ausweg ist, den Mund aufzumachen und die Gesellschaft und ihre Institutionen zu zwingen, die Täter zu hindern und zu bestrafen. Bevor ihr das nächste Mal über einen “gecancelten” oder mit Vorwürfen konfrontieren Schauspieler sprechen möchtet, fragt sie lieber, wie es ihnen bisher so ergangen ist (und seid nicht enttäuscht, wenn sie nicht darüber sprechen wollen).Am Ende vom Tag können doch alle froh sein, dass die meisten keine Rache, sondern nur Respekt und Gleichberechtigung wollen.Warum diesmal dieser Rant? Dazu hat mich die Lektüre von Jennifer Weiners “That Summer” getrieben. Ein Roman, der Auswirkungen hat. This is a public episode.

What happens when things are actually going well—and your brain immediately starts waiting for something to go wrong?In this episode, we talk about emotional confidence: the ability to trust yourself with change, uncertainty, disappointment, and even happiness. You'll hear why bracing for future pain doesn't protect you from it, how recovery involves learning to tolerate normal variation rather than trying to keep life perfectly steady, and why confidence is often built by remembering what you've already survived.We also explore the difference between recognizing a helpful “tailwind” and slipping into a restrictive famine mindset, how to treat body weight as information rather than a verdict, and why there is no making up for yesterday—there is only taking care of yourself right now.This week's experiment: choose one emotion you're still learning to handle without eating, restricting, numbing, or escaping, and practice telling yourself, “This is a feeling I'm building confidence with.”New to the show?

Is it OK for the rest of us to have opinions about the body of one of the world’s most photographed women? By expressing concern – or something else – about someone who looks so unwell, are we making things worse: projecting our own problems and hang-ups on the most talented among us?

One unplanned food choice can quickly turn into “I already blew it, so I might as well keep going.” In this episode, Georgie explains why eating-because-I-ate urges are a form of pain-relief eating: food is used to escape the guilt, fear, or disappointment caused by the previous eating.You'll learn how to interrupt the loop with a simple response, and why dietary imperfection is a skill worth practising. Georgie also shares practical steps for stopping the escalation without restricting, compensating, or turning one imperfect moment into an entire day of eating.In this episode:Why one off-plan choice can trigger more eatingHow guilt and shame fuel the urgeWhat “damage control” actually meansWhy compensation makes the cycle worseHow to practise dietary imperfectionWhat to do in the moment when “might as well” appearsFor coaching, visit confidenteaters.com.New to the show?

Botox, Abnehmspritzen, Longevity und Social Media verändern unseren Umgang mit Schönheit und dem Älterwerden. Doch wo endet gesunde Selbstfürsorge – und wo beginnt der Druck zur Selbstoptimierung?

In this episode, we're talking about pain relief urges: the urge to eat because something hurts and food feels like the fastest way out. That pain might be physical, emotional, or both stacked together — and food may genuinely offer comfort for a little while. But comfort is not the problem. Cost is the question.We'll look at how to tell when food comfort stays low-cost versus when it turns into a high-cost binge, and how to build a wider comfort plan that includes physical care, sensory soothing, connection, movement, expression, and support from other people. Because pain is a normal part of life, but you don't have to meet it with only one tool.This week's experiment: look back over the last seven days and notice what kinds of pain or discomfort showed up most often. If you used food for comfort, ask how much it cost you — then build a lower-cost comfort plan with at least two options, one of which can be food if you feel confident keeping it reasonable.For coaching, visit confidenteaters.com.

Then a stranger's LinkedIn message informs you your nudes are live on an exposure site — posted by a serial creep who's quietly stalked a dozen women across two countries. You've filed a report and started reverse-doxxing him. So how do you actually bring this ghoul to justice?You're an agnostic-leaning-atheist dad shipping your whip-smart five-year-old off to a Christian private school, and she's already home reciting Sunday School certainties about Heaven, God, and why we're here. You want kids who interrogate ideas, not swallow them whole — but how do you plant healthy doubt without quietly torching her teachers or picking the fight for her?Recommendation of the Week: Peak Design — a gear-obsessed cult favorite (not a sponsor) whose magnetic phone case snaps onto a wallet, bike mount, tripod, or charging stand with zero fiddling, which Jordan calls a gamechanger for a serial bike-borrower and car-renter like himself.For 10 months, you loved a woman who was the kindest person alive sober — and a fork-throwing, credit-card-swiping, bouncer-brawling storm after a few drinks.

Autopilot urges happen when your brain recognizes a familiar scene and says, “This is when we eat,” or “This goes with food.” These urges can show up as snacking, grazing, emotional eating, or a full binge before you feel like you've really chosen anything.In this episode, we'll look at why certain places, activities, times of day, and transitions can trigger automatic eating patterns. We'll talk about why these urges often appear when we're stressed and want to check out, or when we finally relax and want to stop putting effort into anything.We'll also explore why separating food from entertainment can help you enjoy both more. When eating happens on autopilot, you may consume the food without actually receiving much pleasure or satisfaction from it.This week's experiment: choose one automatic eating script, such as TV and snacks, road trips and candy, or after-dinner sweets. Name the script, ask whether the activity would still be good without the usual snacks in tow, and audition one guardrail — a new choreography, substitute, or environmental change — to help your brain practice a different route.For help with binge eating recovery, visit confidenteaters.com.New to the show?

Looking good isn't a sin—but when does self-improvement become self-worship? In this episode, we wrestle with one of the most relevant questions Christians face today: from BBLs and Botox to braces, veneers, and hair transplants, where should followers of Jesus draw the line? Join us as we explore what Scripture says about our bodies, our motives, and whether we're pursuing God's glory or the world's approval.John 7:241 Samuel 16:7Esther 2:7Genesis 29:17 Genesis 39:6 1 Samuel 9:2 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 1 Kings 6–7 2 Chronicles 3–4 1 Corinthians 10:23–24 1 Corinthians 10:31 1 Corinthians 8:9 1 Peter 3:3–4 Proverbs 31:30 Philippians 2:3–4 Galatians 1:10
In binge eating recovery, many people believe they should be able to keep every food in the house, eat every food casually, and handle every food environment without support. But recovery is not about proving you can do everything the hard way.In this episode, we talk about guardrails: practical supports that make desired behaviors easier and reduce the setups that tend to make eating feel chaotic. Guardrails might include buying smaller portions, putting certain foods out of sight, using a Kitchen Safe, asking for help at home, planning food when traveling, or choosing the conditions that make a tricky food feel calmer.You'll learn why guardrails are not the same as bans, why needing support does not mean you're failing, and how to tell the difference between a supportive guardrail and punitive restriction.New to the show?

In this episode, we're talking about exhaustion urges: urges to binge, graze, order food, snack compulsively, or keep eating when your system is depleted and food starts to look like the fastest available relief.Instead of focusing mostly on what to do once you're already too exhausted to care, we're moving upstream. Exhaustion urges often start earlier than the urge itself, when your battery is being drained by skipped breaks, overpacked schedules, under-planned recovery, travel, big events, and pushing through when you are already under-resourced.You'll learn how to use the Battery Check, why breaks work best before you desperately need them, how to tell growth discomfort from depletion, why rescheduling can be a recovery skill, and how to use the simple in-the-moment tool Get Horizontal when you're already below 20%.New to the show?

(Note: This episode originally ran on September 9th, 2025) What do kids learn when they hear “fat” used like an insult? And what do we say when they turn that word on themselves? In this episode, we talk about how to name fatphobia, challenge it, and model true body respect at any size. Back-to-school season often brings comments about weight, growth, and how bodies “should” look. For parents of tweens and teens, it's a critical time to talk about body image, confidence, and how kids feel in their own skin. Model and body activist Tess Holliday shares what it was like growing up in the South, taking up space, and parenting through shame. Later, author and journalist Virginia Sole-Smith offers practical ways to push back on harmful beauty standards and make space for more honest conversations at home. Whether you're unpacking what you grew up hearing or just trying to find the right words, this conversation is a place to begin. Raising Us is hosted by Elise Hu, an award-winning journalist and mom of three, known for her warm, candid approach to tough conversations. Each week, she breaks down big questions families are facing, with help from expert voices and real-life stories. Key Takeaways: “Fat is just another way to have a body.” Reclaiming the word fat helps kids build respect, not shame. “Perfection isn't the goal. Showing up is.” Modeling body acceptance starts with honesty. “If we don't talk about fatphobia, kids will believe the dominant story.” Silence reinforces bias. Conversation builds empathy.

In this episode, we're looking at restriction urges: the urges that say, “Get it while you can.” These urges are often not just about hunger or cravings. They are scarcity alarms. Sometimes the scarcity is physical, like not eating enough or going too long without food. Sometimes it is psychological, like food rules, guilt, or the feeling that you are technically allowed to eat something but still shouldn't want it. Sometimes it comes from the threat of future restriction: “Tomorrow I'll be good,” “After this weekend I'm stopping,” “I need to drop a few pounds before vacation,” or “This is the last time.”The main question from this episode is: “What am I afraid there is not enough of?” Maybe the answer is food, satisfaction, dessert, time, pleasure, freedom, permission, comfort, choice, or rest. Once you can hear the scarcity signal, you can respond with reliable permission instead of more control.New to the show?

We discuss the Hypocrisy of Lizzos fans and the lack of support of her Body Positivity now that she's transitioning.
Emily Gretel war gerade noch so 24, als wir uns für das Interview hier getroffen haben, und hat mir bewusst gemacht, WIE sehr ich nicht mehr Mitte 20 bin. Als ich so alt war, wurden im Netz vor allem Frauen berühmt, die allzeit schön, ordentlich, eben perfekt wirkten. Emily hingegen wird dafür gefeiert, dass sie sich selbst oft unvorteilhaft filmt, eine derbe Sprache verwendet und scheinbar keine Tabus kennt. Ich wollte rausfinden: Wie viel davon ist eine Online-Persona - Frau Gretel eben, mit ihrem eigenen Podcast, “Anti-Alles” und ihren rund 1,7 Millionen Followern auf Tiktok und Instagram - und wie viel ist die echte Person, Emily? Zwischendurch hatte ich das Gefühl, sie springt je nach Frage munter hin und her.Es ging darum, wieso man Selbstbewusstsein einfach faken sollte und wie es sich anfühlt, Last-Minute-Rückzieher im Job zu machen – auch wenn die richtig teuer werden. Emily hat mir erzählt, wie es war, mitten in der Corona-Pandemie zuhause auszuziehen und ein neues Leben zu starten, und wie sie sich Hilfe gesucht hat, um von ihrem heftigen Cannabiskonsum wegzukommen. Und ich merke gerade selbst, das klingt jetzt alles nach ganz schön schweren Themen, aber eigentlich war es eine sehr unterhaltsame Begegnung, weil Emily selbst kleinste Alltagsgeschehnisse in gute Stories verwandeln kann.Hier kommt eine gute Stunde mit Frau Gretel!►►►Deutschland3000 Instagram: @deutschland3000 https://www.instagram.com/deutschland3000YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/deutschland3000 Frau GretelTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@frgretelInstagram: @fraugretelhttps://www.instagram.com/frgretel/?hl=deYouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGkD7aL_k1ZZsW9wQA3edhQEva Schulz Instagram: @evaschulzhttps://www.instagram.com/evaschulz/ ►►►Hier findet ihr Hilfsangebote, falls es euch gerade nicht so gut geht:https://www.ndr.de/n-joy/leben/Euch-geht-es-schlecht-Hier-findet-ihr-Hilfe-,hilfsstellen102.html Zu unserem Podcast-Tipp „Die OpenAI Story“ kommt ihr hier: (https://www.ardsounds.de/sendung/die-openai-story/urn:ard:show:8862c28ddc06b3b7/)►►►Host: Eva SchulzRedaktion: Gina Thoneick, Sabine Lebek, Ruby-Ann Schwiethal, Axel Schöning und Kim Vanessa SchangTeam YouTube: Javan Wenz, Jana Keifenheim, Camille Laveu, Tim Terborg, Albrecht Elstermann und Fehri LarianiFotografin Cover: Leah RuprechtGrafik Cover: BR/Lena Waldispühl, Simon HeimbuchnerArt Direction Cover: Veronika GrenzebachProduktion: KONTER Studios GmbH und das Sounddesign kommt von Soundquadrat. „Deutschland3000 mit Eva Schulz“ ist ein Podcast von N-JOY (NDR) und dem BR für die ARD.(00:00:00) Intro(00:00:08) Frau Gretel stellt sich vor – mit Zigarettenstummel, Therapien und Klartext(00:03:00) Frau Gretel vs. Emily – wo hört die Rolle auf?(00:08:27) Selbstbewusstsein: echt oder gefakt – und was ist der Unterschied?(00:13:16) Öffentlich vs. privat: Was zeigt Emily, was bleibt Emily?(00:15:17) Rückzieher: Warum sie heute Morgen Nein gesagt hat – und warum das Stärke ist(00:31:01) Aufgewachsen in Tübingen, alleinerziehende Mutter und Female Force(00:43:59) Corona-Jugend: Australien, Pandemie, und wer zahlt ihr die drei Jahre zurück?(00:50:49) Suchtberatung: Wie Emily aufgehört hat zu kiffen – auf den Tag genau(00:54:29) Psychische Gesundheit: Antidepressiva, Therapie und die Frage, die sie am meisten nervt(00:59:08) Branche & Psyche: Warum in der Kreativwelt irgendwie alle „ein bisschen ein an der Waffel" sind(01:02:08) Botox, Body Image & Patriarchat: Wer ist Opfer, wer macht das System?(01:07:08) Schönheitsideale: Pendel, Caprihose und Kim Kardashian
Bingeing can be painful and costly, but it often persists because it is doing a job.Not working because it is harmless or because you want to keep doing it, but because it may have been doing something important for you. Bingeing may provide relief, comfort, rest, numbness, pleasure, rebellion, privacy, or a way to get through moments that feel impossible.In this episode, we look at bingeing as a coping strategy that may have helped you survive, especially if it began when you were young and had fewer choices. The goal is not to romanticize bingeing, but to understand what need it has been meeting so you can begin meeting that need earlier, more directly, and with less harm.New to the show?

Can you love your body and still want to change it? Absolutely. In this episode, I tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in health and recovery: body positivity. I explore how self-acceptance and personal growth can exist side by side, why your worth isn't tied to a number on the scale, and how to create a healthier mindset as you pursue your goals.

We throw around the term "body positivity" often, but do we actually know what it feels like to live it? In this episode, we're focusing on what body image positivity really is at a soul level: not a perfect score of self-love every single day, but a gentle, honest journey toward letting your authenticity take the lead. Career, relationships, your soul's purpose — when those are thriving, your relationship with your body starts to shift. And if looking good is part of what lights you up? Absolutely no judgment here.Learn more about Juan Francisco at juanfrancisco.co, or follow him at @thisjuanfrancisco on social media.
Abby's 40th birthday served as the perfect launching pad for an honest conversation about aging and all the feelings that come with it. With most of our 30s spent raising kids, we are stepping into this new decade with a fresh perspective, and we're keeping it real about the insecurities, the mindset shifts, and the things we actively do to feel and look our best. We also explore the power of having older women in our lives as role models, share a meaningful mantra from Abby's grandma, and wrap up with a reminder that making peace with aging is so much easier when you're surrounded by people who own it unapologetically.Key Topics Covered:Finding your personal balance between embracing aging and doing the things that make you feel confident and youthful.How dressing for your changing body can support a more positive relationship with it.The reality of working out as you get older, including injuries and setbacks, and knowing you're not alone in facing them.Why surrounding yourself with people who are unapologetic about their age can shift your entire outlook.LINKS AND RESOURCES:LMNT: Free Sample Pack with purchase: drinkLMNT.com/HERSELF BETTERHELP: 10% off first month at: http://betterhelp.com/herselfPatreon Book Club: https://www.patreon.com/herselfpodcastHair Supplement: https://amzlink.to/az0kELnE6fNiVLet's connect!HERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was brought to you by the Pivot Ball Change Network.
The First 60 Seconds: Don't Let the Urge Become a Story (The Urge Proof Life — Episode 4)There's a tiny moment when an urge first appears—before the binge, before the “might as well,” before the story starts writing itself. In this episode, Georgie explains why the first danger often isn't the urge itself, but the meaning we attach to it: I can't handle this, I already know how this ends, I'm going to binge.You'll learn the “two waves” of an urge: the first wave is sensation, and the second wave is interpretation. The skill in the first 60 seconds isn't to make the urge disappear or diagnose it perfectly, it's to meet it with boring neutrality: “This is an urge. That's all. It'll be here for a while, and then it will leave.” From there, you can choose one small support, and later use the Urge Map if needed.Try this week: Practice the boring sentence three times when an urge appears. You don't have to stop eating, solve the urge, or do anything perfectly. Just notice what happens when you decline the story.New to the show?

Stop Arguing With Your Cravings: A Conversation with Dr. Glenn LivingstonThis episode is a rare guest conversation on Breaking Up With Binge Eating. Georgie is joined by Dr. Glenn Livingston, psychologist, author, and creator of Defeat Your Cravings, for a wide-ranging conversation about binge eating, cravings, food rules, self-trust, and why insight alone often isn't enough to change an eating pattern.Glenn shares his own history with compulsive overeating, including how years of therapy and self-understanding helped him become kinder to himself, but did not automatically stop the binge eating. Together, Georgie and Glenn explore why emotional pain can be part of the picture without being the whole cause, how the brain can use old wounds as justification for continuing a pattern, and why clear lines or “guardrails” can sometimes reduce the mental negotiation that keeps cravings alive.They also talk about the modern food environment, hyper-palatable foods, intermittent fasting, perfectionism, self-forgiveness, and why it is often easier to prevent cravings upstream than to fight them once they are roaring. Glenn offers practical tools for identifying the thoughts that try to talk you into eating against your own best judgment, while Georgie brings in her perspective on under-eating, over-productivity, emotional needs, and the importance of responding to both hunger and fullness cues with care.A key theme in this conversation is that recovery does not have to be built on shame. You can aim clearly without attacking yourself when you miss. You can protect your recovery without making your life smaller. And you can become someone who takes your own needs seriously, even when that means being a little “weird” in public, packing food, skipping the dessert you don't want, or refusing to harm yourself with food for someone else's comfort.Try this week: Notice one craving or urge and write down the thought that tries to justify it. Is it futility? Permission? “I deserve this”? “I'll start tomorrow”? Then ask: what would actually support me here?You can learn more about Dr. Glenn Livingston and access his free resources at DefeatYourCravings.com.New to the show?

In this episode, I respond to and unpack some of the most common comments I received after the viral Jillian Michaels vs. Body Positivity debate video was published.I'll be honest: it took me a long time to record this episode. Reading through hostile and misinformed comments is unpleasant. But I ultimately decided this conversation was worth having, because the comments reveal deep misunderstandings about weight, health, and what ethical nutrition care actually looks like.In this episode, I cover:Why I said that I believe its unethical to encourage weight los ( and how this differs from judging people who choose to pursue weight loss.The flawed assumption that a dietitian's role is to control someone's body sizeWhy weight is not a measure of healthThe criticism I received from fellow dietitians and why this hurt the mostMentioned in the episode:Behind the Scenes of the "Jillian Michaels vs Body Positivity" Debate with Edie StarkWe Watched The Jillian Michaels Debate Back...

In this episode of Health, Wellth & Wisdom, host and head coach, Nicole Hagen is joined by Liberation Psychotherapist and Body Justice Activist, Paula Atkinson for a powerful conversation about body justice, diet culture, weight stigma, and the complicated ways our society links thinness to health, morality, and personal worth.Nicole and Paula explore what it means to pursue health while honoring body autonomy, how binary thinking shapes our relationship with food and fitness, and why conversations about weight are often far more nuanced than social media makes them seem.Throughout this episode, you'll learn:What body justice and body liberation actually meanHow societal pressures around thinness, beauty, and worth impact our relationship with food and our bodiesWhether body liberation and intentional weight loss can coexistThe role weight stigma plays in healthcare, wellness spaces, and everyday lifeHow binary (all-or-nothing) thinking shows up in diet culture and disordered eating patternsPractical ways to cultivate more flexibility, nuance, and self-compassion around eating and body imageThis conversation explores the gray areas that are often missing from discussions about weight and body image. Whether you've struggled with dieting, questioned the messages you've received about your body, or simply want to better understand the intersection of health, autonomy, and social justice, this episode offers a thoughtful and compassionate perspective.Paula's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pauladatkinson/Paula's Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-if-nothings-wrong-with-you/id1732345906Jillian Michaels vs 20 Body Positivity Activists:https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=LMpsOxU3a6oVrqT_&v=M7K87rGoGps&feature=youtu.be

Start Here: https://breakingupwithbingeeating.transistor.fm/start-here Pick the listening path that fits what you're dealing with right now.Show Notes: Have you ever thought, “I don't even like this that much… so why do I still want more?” In this episode, Georgie explains the difference between wanting and liking—and why urges can stay loud even when pleasure is fading.You'll learn how wanting and liking are supported by partly different brain systems: dopamine-heavy motivation circuits help generate the “go get it” drive, while pleasure is more tied to hedonic circuits involving opioid and endocannabinoid signaling. The takeaway: drive and pleasure can decouple. That's why food can feel magnetic even when it's not actually delivering much satisfaction.Georgie also walks through three common reasons wanting can run hotter than liking: cues and habit loops, scarcity, and stress or depletion. You'll learn how to use a not worth it list, a pleasure check, and the concept of diminishing returns to interrupt the trance of “more will fix it.”Try this week: Pick one risk food or one risk time when wanting tends to get loud. If you eat, pause partway through and ask: “Am I actually liking this, or am I chasing relief?” If liking is low, try one re-route action from your urge map: nourishment, soft landing, soothing, permission with structure, or breaking a cue chain.Coming next: What to do in the first 60 seconds of an urge—before it escalates and before you start negotiating with yourself.

Heela Yang built Sol de Janeiro, one of the most beloved body care brands, from her dining room, but her path there looked nothing like a typical business plan. After twelve years in corporate beauty following stints at Goldman Sachs and a Harvard MBA, she left New York for Brazil for love, only to find herself pregnant, isolated, and unable to do the work that had always defined her. A single afternoon on a beach, surrounded by women of every shape in a very small bikini she'd been talked into, changed everything. In this episode, Heela shares how that moment became the emotional blueprint for Sol de Janeiro, the cult-favorite brand that launched a craze for mists and body care and built a business around embracing your body and skin as it is, no matter what size or shape.

There's an entire industry built on the idea that if you hate yourself enough, you'll eventually change. And yet everything we know about shame tells us the opposite is true. So why do we keep going back there? And more importantly, what does it actually take to break free?This week on Live Well Be Well, I'm sitting down with Shahroo Izadi, Behavioural Change Specialist, NHS clinical trainer, and bestselling author of The Kindness Method and The Last Diet. Shahroo spent years working in addiction recovery, and what she found there transformed not only her professional understanding of change, but her own relationship with food, her body, and herself. We go deep into why so many of us associate change with self-loathing, why willpower alone will always fail us, and how the tools used in addiction recovery hold the blueprint for any meaningful behaviour change. Shahroo also shares her own story with complete honesty, including binge eating, a gastric band, eight stone lost, and what finally made the difference. This is one of those conversations that reframes everything.Here's what we dive into:- How shame becomes the enemy of lasting habit change.- Why the only habit worth learning is how to change habits.- What addiction recovery gets right that mainstream wellness misses.- How to interrupt the shame spiral after a setback.- Why body neutrality is a more honest goal than body positivity.Love,Sarah Ann

Start Here: https://breakingupwithbingeeating.transistor.fm/start-herePick the listening path that fits what you're dealing with right now.Show Notes: In this episode, Georgie gives you a practical “urge map” to answer the question that matters in real life: what kind of urge is this? Because the same pantry moment can come from very different mechanisms—and if you use the wrong tool, it's easy to assume you “did it wrong” when you were simply solving the wrong problem. The core skill is matching the tool to the mechanism.You'll learn five common urge types and what each one actually needs: the Low-Fuel urge (under-fueling—food that counts), the Depletion urge (low capacity—less load and a soft landing), the Pain Relief urge (emotional or physical discomfort—soothing and often connection), the Scarcity/Rebellion urge (restriction and “I can't” energy—a believable yes and permission with structure), and the Autopilot urge (cue chains—pattern interruption, not self-criticism). You'll also get a quick five-question check-in to identify what's driving the urge in the moment, plus concrete examples of “permission with structure” and simple ways to break an evening cue chain.Try this week: Pick your most common urge type and run one experiment for seven days—data, not a test. (Afternoon anchor snack; a 10-minute downshift after dinner; a two-word feeling label + one moment of contact; a planned “yes” with structure; or breaking one link in your autopilot routine.)Coming next: Why urges can feel so persuasive even when the eating isn't that enjoyable—wanting vs liking.

In this season opener, Georgie reframes urges as signals, not commands, and explains why urges get so loud when pressure rises and capacity drops. You'll learn why the goal isn't to eliminate urges, but to keep them from escalating.This episode also tackles a common trap: the belief that you have to binge to make an urge go away. In reality, urges can rise, peak, and pass without a binge—and bingeing often creates more urges by reinforcing the relief loop and adding extra pressure afterward (shame, fear, compensation thoughts, and scarcity). You'll also learn what fuels escalation in the moment—panic language, negotiating, future-tripping, shame/secrecy, and all-or-nothing thinking—and how to step out of that spiral.You'll get a simple four-step “first move” for any urge: label it (“signal, not order”), use neutral language (“uncomfortable, not dangerous”), take a small pause to restore choice, and ask what the urge is actually asking for (food, rest, relief, connection, or predictability).Try this week: Catch and label three urges. Don't make it a test of whether you eat—just reduce escalation by 10% and treat it as data, not a verdict.Coming next: Episode 2 builds your Urge Map—how to identify what kind of urge you're having and match the tool to the mechanism.

Weeks and months of behavior change are data. You're allowed to trust data.Coaching/support: georgiefear@gmail.com

Not because it's quick or simple, but because binge eating and emotional eating aren't random or a personal flaw—they're understandable system responses to pressure, depletion, and the search for relief. This episode reframes what real progress looks like: not dramatic turning points, but quieter shifts—more time between binges, shorter spirals, urges that don't hijack you the same way, and hard days met with steadiness instead of punishment. You'll hear a new definition of progress (“what happened next?” and “did I reduce pressure anywhere?”), a compassionate way to understand setbacks as data (pressure exceeded capacity), and a framework for moving from self-surveillance to self-understanding. If you take one thing from this finale, let it be this: you're not failing—you're learning a pattern that responds to understanding, steadiness, and support. You're allowed to keep learning at your own pace, and you don't have to do it alone.
