Podcasts about diet culture

In this episode, I sit down with Julie Duffy Dillon, RDN, therapist, and author of Find Your Food Voice, to help clinicians replace diet-culture with practical, patient-centered coaching. We dig into what a “food voice” is, why so many people get disconnected from it, and how you can guide patients back to hunger/fullness cues without meal plans, shame, or quick fixes.You'll leave with language you can use tomorrow in clinic—plus simple interventions (like CHiPs check-ins and “letters to food”) that help patients quiet the noise, honor body diversity, and focus on behaviors that truly move health forward.Resources Mentioned:The Obesity Medicine Nutrition Course (this has a fantastic module on Intuitive Eating and use code POD15 for 15% off)Episode 104 Body DiversityFind Your Food Voice bookConnect with JulieAny Questions?

Do you Sabbath? If not, do you wish you did? Friends, it's never too late to start implementing the Sabbath! Even if it feels weird, is imperfect and hard, still practice the Sabbath as it has SUCH great benefits. I believe that choosing to do a longer period of rest each week is an act of trusting God. And learning to trust God is far more important than getting one more thing accomplished off your to-do list.  First part of this episode is about how I practice the Sabbath and includes mindsets to adopt in order to keep the Sabbath holy and walk in obedience in this command of God. Second part of this episode discusses different famous athletes and what we can learn about the importance of rest by seeing their successful training programs, which include adequate rest. We will also talk about how God's view on rest and the world/Diet Culture's views are VERY different! Today I'm chatting about: What I do on a Sabbath to recharge (and why that's different each week and person to person) How considering your Monday self can help you rest better on your Sabbath Things I do on Saturday to rest easier on Sundays How taking a restful Sunday can help me have rest rhythms all week long Something a spin bike instructor said in a workout that had me thinking about rest in a different way  The wisdom of RESTING enough first to then next WORK well (a very counter cultural order of events!) The importance of giving God our first fruits, which leads to blessing Things Sabbathing and Intuitive Eating have in common The way my cat displays rest being the highest form of trust How the strongest man in the world reminds me to rest! How an English runner breaking world records showcases the importance of including rest in our workout routines A benefit of regular Sabbath being prevention of burnout  Fun traditions my family did growing up on Sabbath!

Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, it's never enough? You try harder, you push yourself, you chase perfection—but all it leaves you with is exhaustion and self-criticism. What if the answer isn't doing more, but actually being kinder to yourself?This week, we sit down with licensed therapist and course creator Erica Thomas to talk about the radical (and practical) power of self-compassion. Erica shares her personal story of body image struggles, unpacks how diet culture keeps us stuck, and explains why self-compassion might be the missing piece in our own journeys toward peace with ourselves.From silencing the inner critic to modeling self-kindness for our kids, this conversation is full of wisdom and practical tools we can use today.If you're tired of the hamster wheel of “never enough,” you don't want to miss this episode.Special Guest: Erica ThomasErica is a licensed marriage and family therapist, psychotherapist, and the creator of an online course all about self-compassion as a practical alternative to diet culture. She works with families and teens, helping people navigate body image challenges and that ever-present inner critic, with a focus on healing and acceptance. She lives in Lafayette, California and sees patients virtually.

Coaches love control—until it controls them. In this one, Lara Days (Visionary Endotype), a board‑certified health coach and intuitive eating counselor, breaks down why so many smart, high‑capacity people are secretly micromanaging their bodies: daily weigh‑ins, body checking, earning food, and calling it “discipline.” We talk about the pendulum swing—strict rules on one side, “forget it” on the other—and how to find a livable middle. You'll hear Lara's practical lens on rejecting diet culture, using interoception and attunement as your real “data,” and why tracking feelings beats tracking macros for most humans. We also unpack program design: getting explicit buy‑in, setting agreements, and running groups where autonomy is the point—not another set of rules.

So you've tried to diet your way to control, but instead, you end up feeling more out of control than ever. Why is that? It's not just about willpower or “falling off track.” Dieting actually dysregulates your entire system — your hunger cues, your emotions, your hormones, even your nervous system. The very rules you're following are what cause you to swing back and forth on the pendulum: restrict, rebel, repeat. In episode 257 of Fitness & Sushi, we'll show you why dieting keeps you stuck in chaos, and how to finally break free by learning to stay regulated instead. In this episode — “How Dieting Dysregulates Your Body and Mind (And What to Do Instead)” — you'll learn…

What if the harder you try, the more stuck you actually get? I know, sounds backwards, but I learned this lesson the hard way. Picture this: I'm in Hawaii, surrounded by paradise, and instead of enjoying the damn beach, I'm in full-blown meltdown mode over whether I earned my Mai Tai. That was the moment I realized… something had to change. Enter: The Flip Flop Life, my “napkin manifesto” that sat on my hard drive for six years before I finally brought it to life. In this episode, we're diving into: ·       Why perfection and all-or-nothing dieting are making you miserable (not healthy). ·       How to ditch the food police soundtrack running in your head 24/7. ·       The boring (a.k.a. unsexy) basics that actually move the needle, sleep, stress, protein, fiber, consistency. ·       What happens when you finally let it be easy instead of chasing six-week shred promises. This isn't another 30-day quick fix. It's a lifestyle shift for women who are done white knuckling their way through diets, workouts, and “earning their food.” So, if you're ready to trade the mental gymnastics for ease, fun, and actually living your life, welcome to The Flip Flop Life.

Welcome to Slim Fast Kids, the podcast where we unpack the diet culture circus that raised us — one decade at a time. In this debut episode, we're heading back to the 1980s, the era of spandex leotards, moms power-walking with Jane Fonda tapes, and refrigerators stocked with Diet Coke like it was holy water.This was the decade where diet culture really strapped on its leg warmers and hit the treadmill. With more moms entering the workforce, TV booming, and glossy magazines screaming “thin is in,” kids of the '80s were basically set up for a lifetime subscription to body shame. We'll break down the neon-lit nonsense, the “miracle” products, and the pop-culture moments that taught a whole generation that calories were evil and cottage cheese was a meal.Funny, biting, and just a little tragic — this is the start of the diet drama that shaped the rest of us.****made with AI

Author and coach Jen Butler joins me to talk about the wild Venn diagram of midlife: perimenopause, PMDD, motherhood, and the courage to break up with both alcohol and diet culture. Jen shares how cycle tracking helped her spot a clear mid-cycle mood crash, the conversation that led to her PMDD diagnosis, and why taking fluoxetine (Prozac) in her luteal phase lets her feel like herself all month.We get into night sweats, brain fog, strength training by your cycle, communicating with partners and kids, and how seven years alcohol-free opened the door to deeper healing—plus her forthcoming memoir, Mom Rediscovered: My Midlife Breakup with Drinking and Diet Culture. If you've ever wondered whether thriving in this season is possible… this one's for you.We cover:Perimenopause signs & PMDD (and what finally helped)Luteal-phase SSRIs: what it's like on Prozac only half the monthFitness + strength: adjusting weights across your cycleQuitting wine-mom culture & becoming alcohol-freeDitching diet culture for body appreciationParenting through hormones: honesty, safety, and therapyTo connect with Jen: Website: jenbutlerwrites.comInstagram: @jenbutlerwrites---The Cycle Codes:Instagram: @thecyclecodes

In episode 297 of Fitness & Sushi, I sit down with my Gen Z daughters for an honest conversation about what it's like to grow up surrounded by diet culture — and how they're learning to navigate it in today's world. From almond moms to social media pressures, you'll hear their perspective on what diet culture looks like for their generation, their memories of watching me trapped in it (and then breaking free), and what moms and grandmas can do to protect the next generation. In this episode — “Gen Z, Almond Moms & Diet Culture: A Daughter-Mom Talk on Body, Food & Freedom” — you'll learn…

In this deeply moving and inspiring conversation, Dr. Cristina Castagnini welcomes Haley Schiek, an eating disorder recovery coach and founder of COSANA Coaching, to share her personal journey from years of struggling with anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating to building a life of freedom, purpose, and joy. Haley recounts how childhood bullying, social media pressures, and the cultural obsession with thinness shaped her early sense of self and triggered her eating disorder. She opens up about her healing path—starting with yoga teacher training at just 15, discovering energy work and spiritual connection after college, and ultimately finding peace with her body and food. Together, Haley and Dr. Cristina explore how trauma, systemic pressures, and the “thin ideal” keep so many people trapped in cycles of shame and self-criticism, and why true recovery often requires addressing mind, body, and spirit—not just behavior. This episode is for anyone who has struggled to feel at home in their body, or who is curious about incorporating yoga, mindfulness, and energy work into their recovery process.SHOW NOTES: Click hereFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behind_the_bite Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Trying to raise kids who have a genuinely healthy relationship with food and their bodies? Join Jennifer Reid, MD as she speaks with Oona Hanson, educator, writer and parent coach, about how much power parents have to nurture kids who trust their own hunger cues, enjoy movement for joy rather than punishment, and develop the kind of inner voice that supports rather than sabotages them throughout life.Understanding Diet CultureDiet culture isn't just about dieting—it's pervasive beliefs about food and bodies that we're systematically taught."It's the air we breathe. It's the water we're swimming in... We aren't born with these ideas [about good/bad foods]. These are something we're systematically taught through culture."Parent Guilt and Self-Compassion"Parents don't cause eating disorders and parents can actually be the most powerful source of support for recovery."About OonaOona Hanson is a writer, educator, and parent coach specializing in helping families navigate diet culture. She holds master's degrees in educational psychology and English, is a regular CNN contributor, and writes the "Parenting Without Diet Culture" newsletter.

Il rapporto con il cibo, di conseguenza col proprio corpo, riveste un ruolo importante. Anche se non ce ne accorgiamo, siamo di sovente immersi in una diet culture che tende a far vivere male un eventuale slancio verso la voglia di buono. Una serie di regole sociali quasi oppressive che evidenziano corpi magri, abili e magari bianchi come quelli più desiderabili; in chiave salute una serie costante di modelli da seguire che deprecano il resto. È evidente come queste convinzioni siano discriminatorie e abbiano uno sfondo razzista, classista e sessista, ma purtroppo incidono in maniera inconscia su molte persone.Quello che serve, invece, è una divulgazione positiva, la possibilità di trasmettere e vivere la propria passione per il cibo con serenità e gioia, ovviamente senza andare a briglie sciolte. Non esiste un unico schema da seguire, la mente non deve essere perennemente stressata da costrizioni e restrizioni, bisogna godersi le cose ma anche avere la consapevolezza di stare bene con sé stessi, avendo rispetto del proprio corpo.Prima di addentrarmi nel cuore del discorso, bisogna fare una premessa doverosa: se avete patologie o sovrappeso importanti, è bene avvalersi di medici e professionisti, prima di dedicarsi in autonomia alla cura del proprio benessere. Quello che segue è frutto di esperienze personali che possono tramutarsi in consigli da persona comune a persona comune, accorgimenti che potrebbero servire come spunto per migliorare il proprio rapporto con il cibo ma anche con la mente.Da dove partire? Separando lo sgarro – che ci vuole! – dal quotidiano, trovando godimento nello stare più in forma e comprendendo quello che succede al corpo in base a quello che si fa.

In this solo episode of Life After Diets, Stefanie Michele takes a deeply personal look at identity — how it forms, how it gets tangled up with food and body image, and how it shifts in the process of recovery. With her co-host Sarah leaving the podcast, Stefanie reflects on what it means to carry the podcast forward on her own and how that mirrors the ways we all renegotiate who we are when familiar roles change. She shares vulnerable stories from her teenage years, including moments when dieting and comparison became tied to her sense of belonging, and how those early identities carried forward into adulthood. Stefanie unpacks the pull of societal validation — being seen as the “fit one,” the “healthy one,” or even the “struggling one” — and how these labels can feel both protective and limiting. The episode also explores the everyday challenges of navigating diet culture, from handling casual food and body talk to setting boundaries that protect your well-being. Stefanie discusses practical ways to self-soothe, create space for uncomfortable emotions, and question the narratives that no longer serve you. More than a story of food or recovery, this conversation is about identity itself: the parts of us we protect, the roles we cling to, and the freedom that comes with exploring new ways of being.

The new Fit for TV documentary on The Biggest Loser has us fired up. This reality show wasn't just “entertainment,” it reshaped diet culture, fitness, and the way we think about bodies in ways that were harmful, abusive, and dehumanizing.    In this episode, we're breaking down why the show was so damaging and what it means for how we approach health today. This documentary was a stark reminder that your body isn't a spectacle, you don't owe anyone a before-and-after picture, and health should never come at the cost of your dignity. In this episode: How The Biggest Loser normalized extreme and unsafe weight loss practices. The ripple effects it created in gyms, workplaces, and wellness programs across the country. Why diet culture about profit, not health. Weighing benefits vs costs of weight loss programs. Red flags to look out for in trainers, programs, and “health” challenges. What compassionate, sustainable, and whole-person wellness actually looks like. This episode is brought to you by Jukestir.

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

Today I'm sharing all about my bizarre recent half marathon training. Preparation for this 21.1km race looked NOTHING like previous training plans, due to sickness and injury this time around.

Dietitian and Eating Disorder specialist, Sumner Brooks, shares insights about raising an intuitive eater in a diet- and body-focused culture.

Wellness is more than weight, and health is more than numbers. In this episode of BHT Bytes, host Sharlee Dixon is joined by Peter Fenger to unpack the complex intersections of diet culture, body image, and mental health. From the rise of weight-loss fads in the '80s and '90s to the emergence of body positivity and fat visibility movements, we trace how cultural messages about size and health have shaped generations. The conversation dives into the psychological toll of diet culture—covering disordered eating, negative self-image, and the mental health struggles tied to societal ideals. We also explore the new wave of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound—hailed by some as groundbreaking, but raising critical questions about identity, stigma, and long-term impact. Together, Sharlee and Peter break down the science, the stigma, and the shifting narratives of weight and wellness in today's world.   Follow Behavioral Health Today on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/behavioralhealthtoday/ Follow us on TikTok at: https://www.tiktok.com/@behavioralhealthtoday Follow us on Threads at: https://www.threads.net/@behavioralhealthtoday Or watch us live on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvOeCMGsF7B2gNBHuWxt-fQ

Diet culture has a sneaky way of showing up everywhere. From weightloss plans disguised as “lifestyle changes” to wellness trends promising to heal everything from your skin to your soul. In this encore episode, I'm joined by Christy Harrison, MPH, RD—author of The Wellness Trap and Anti-Diet—to unpack how diet culture infiltrates the wellness world and impacts women's health in ways that are anything but healthy.Christy explains how the multi-billion-dollar wellness industry often sells us pseudoscience, dubious diagnoses, and rigid food rules that can lead to disordered eating and body-image struggles.

The conversation explores the emotional, physiological, and social dimensions of menopause, while inviting listeners to step away from control-based approaches and move toward a more compassionate, liberatory path of healing.Together, they challenge the dominant narratives of “fixing” the body, especially through diet fads or medications like GLP-1s, and instead call for a return to self-trust, grief work, and embodied wisdom.SHOW NOTES: Click hereFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behind_the_bite

What if the foods marketed as “healthy” are actually keeping you stuck? Tasha Rosales shares how years of gut issues, gestational diabetes, and chronic fatigue pushed her to reevaluate everything she thought she knew about health. What started as a quest to heal her body turned into a full family transformation. From raising informed eaters (not restricted ones) to finding real balance in a world of conflicting nutrition advice, Tasha walks us through how her family now eats 85–90% real, whole foods and why it's not about perfection or fear, but intention. She gets candid about the moment she realized being too restrictive backfired with her kids, the emotional impact of imagining life if they hadn’t made these changes, and the shocking truth about what’s really in our spices, snacks, and “health” foods.

Eating disorders are complicated illnesses that skyrocketed among teenagers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pediatrician Eva Trujillo says they "literally rewire the brain," decrease brain size, and make it harder to concentrate and to regulate emotions. Malnutrition can slow the metabolism, impact bone density and even lead to cardiac arrest. But Eva says, with the right treatment, people can also recover fully. She's the president of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals and co-founder of Comenzar de Nuevo, a leading treatment facility in Latin America. Today on the show, host Emily Kwong talks about the physical and mental impacts of eating disorders with Dr. Trujillo and Moorea Friedmann, a teen mental health advocate and host of the podcast Balancing Act. Plus, how to recover in a world steeped in diet culture. Want us to cover more mental health topics? Tell us by emailing shortwave@npr.org! We'd love to know what you want to hear from us!
