In this episode, we unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in wellness: weight loss without diet culture. Michelle shares her unique approach to supporting intentional weight loss without shame, restriction, or disordered thinking. We also answer some hard questions relating to metabolism and leptin, and unpack the flawed idea that all restriction is diet culture. Buckle up, this one is a deep dive!Timestamps:[1:39] Noelle intro[3:47] Conversation with Michelle[4:09] Talk about your own personal experience with diet culture[10:47] Let's talk about body neutrality and being science neutral [21:43] What are some strategies that you recommend to clients to have a positive relationship with food before starting to make changes that will put them in restriction?[25:54] What strategies do you have for the push-pull relationship of wanting overall health and wanting to be smaller while trying to accept your body where it is?[29:18] How do we know someone "needs" to lose weight (in their head) versus it being beneficial for them?[31:05] What are your thoughts on your thoughts on anti-diet? Some say restricting gluten and dairy is "diet culture"? [39:13] How do I combine intuitive eating with still keeping integrity of what makes me feel good? [42:15] Can you talk about weight loss resistance when you feel like you're doing everything right?[49:53] How do you manage anxiety if you're hoping to stop or reduce medication? [56:26] How do you know when your symptoms are caused by anxiety rather than an actual disease or underlying condition?[1:04:11] I know it's not a one size fits all approach, but how much time would you give a specific change before trying something else?

As I wrapped up a Create Your Shape cohort today, they shared that prior they were stuck not making progress for 1-3 years because they thought, "I know what to do" and "All of the information is already out there". I have also been in a similar boat which left me never truly making body composition changes, questioning everything on my plate, and honestly uncertain on how it worked besides following a few rules and "hitting macros". I understand the desire to learn this on your own, to make it work with your life and set yourself up for long-term success.There are ladies who can make progress on their own by gaining the knowledge and lifestyle first. In today's episode, I walk through the check-list to know if you're in a position to change your shape DIY, or if you'd benefit and fast track results by working with a coach or a program. You want to be clear on which bucket you're in and which makes the most sense for you.If you've been spinning on your own, I invite you to sign up for Create Your Shape to gain the knowledge, routine, and strategy to ensure you make the changes now and for the long-term!

It is frustrating when you're lifting heavy (maybe even doing 2-a-days), tracking your macros, hitting high protein, and still don't have the shape that represents it. The worst is you look FINE, but just not what you imagined for the effort you're putting in. "Could there really be more than what I'm already doing? What am I missing?" were the questions my client Jennifer had. In this episode, we walk through what we changed and the missing pieces to create her best shape yet at 46. Her defined abs and ability to look good from every angle did not come from working out more and eating less, quite the opposite. Take a listen to hear all of the details and what we implemented.Work with Jenny the Nutritionist in Create Your Shape:https://jennythenutritionist.com/create-your-shape/Follow Jenny the Nutritionist on Instagram:@jennythenutritionist [Take the Quiz] What are you missing to Be Fit, Well-Fed, and Fully Energized?

Welcome to the Women's Health Series! We're going beyond our usual focus on nutrition and fitness with five special guest interviews covering a range of holistic health and well-being topics.I am so glad I came across Kristin and Maria while looking for resources to support women's hormones in their 40s, 50s ,and beyond. I read their book, The Great Menopause Myth, which opened my eyes to the misunderstandings and support women really need during this time. This goes beyond just feeling our best. The Wise and Well team aligns with the nutrition and fitness I already teach and in this episode, they expand on that with the use of HRT.

Welcome to the Women's Health Series! We're going beyond our usual focus on nutrition and fitness with five special guest interviews covering a range of holistic health and well-being topics.In this episode, Dr. Morgan MacDermott discusses key factors to prepare us (especially high-achieving females) for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

If you want to offer private pay packages in your future or existing private practice to better serve your clients (and yourself!), tune in to this episode!Today I'm talking with SLP Lauren Thompson, owner of Well-Fed Feeding and Swallowing Therapy in Londonderry, New Hampshire. I've loved watching Lauren flourish after going through our programs and I'm so excited for her to share the one thing that has recently transformed her business.In this episode, Lauren shares how transitioning to private pay packages helps her balance accessibility for her clients and sustainability for her business.Lauren Thompson, MS, CCC-SLP, CLC, is a Speech-Language Pathologist, Certified Lactation Counselor, and the owner of Well Fed Feeding and Swallowing Therapy. Lauren founded Well Fed to offer families expert, evidence-based feeding support—without the red tape of insurance delays or the frustration of waitlists stretching for months.Realizing that simply being out of network wasn't enough to distinguish her practice from traditional in-network clinics, Lauren reimagined her service model to better meet the needs of families. She introduced visit packages that provide transparency around both cost and time commitment, allowing caregivers to invest in their child's feeding journey with clarity and confidence. These flexible packages enable her to offer semi-intensive therapy, gradually taper services as families build skills and confidence, or front-load support before major life transitions, such as vacations or milestones.Through this innovative approach, Lauren has not only built a sustainable, thriving practice but has also empowered families with individualized feeding therapy that fits their needs—not a rigid, one-size-fits-all schedule.In Today's Episode, We Discuss:Lauren's original plan to be a physical therapist and why she switched to SLPProviding personalized in-home care for familiesShifting her business model to private pay packages When to think about having patients come to see you in your own spaceHow packaged pricing creates financial security and predictabilityImproving client commitment (which results in fewer no-shows!) Refining your pricing model is just another way to bring flexibility to your practice, from how you treat your clients, to easing the stress that comes with running the business side of things.

Want to build muscle but worried about looking too bulky? You're not alone—I hear this concern all of the time from my ladies who love to lift heavy weights. And unlike the usual "weights don't make you bulky" response, I actually get it. As someone who wants muscle in certain areas while maintaining a feminine look, I know there's more to the conversation. In this episode, I break down the three common "bulky" looks women may fear and dive into the five key factors that influence them—genetics, muscle placement, body fat distribution, body part ratios, and overall muscle mass. There's also one more bonus factor that gets overlooked you'll want to consider. You'll learn how to tailor your training and nutrition to achieve the strong yet feminine physique you want, with a fresh perspective on the "bulky" topic that goes beyond just muscle size.Work with Jenny the Nutritionist in Create Your Shape:https://jennythenutritionist.com/create-your-shape/Follow Jenny the Nutritionist on Instagram:@jennythenutritionist [Take the Quiz] What are you missing to Be Fit, Well-Fed, and Fully Energized?
