Super Personal Episode! My 30-Year Journey From Diet Culture to Self Love and (Pretty Good) Health
LISTEN ON: SPOTIFY | APPLE PODCASTS
“I promise I’ll lose X amount of weight.”
“I’ll exercise every single day this year.”
“No more carbs.”
Sound familiar? For years, I made similar promises to myself, thinking they’d lead me to happiness. Instead, they left me feeling trapped, ashamed, and never “good enough.” If you’ve ever felt this way too, you’re not alone. In this deeply personal episode, I’m sharing how I finally found peace, self-love, and pretty decent health – not by chasing perfection, but by learning to listen to myself and let go of all the noise.
Here’s What We’ll Talk About
- Why It’s Okay to Skip This: If this episode feels too heavy for where you are right now, that’s 100% okay.
- Diet Culture in the 90s: The pressure to shrink myself and its lasting impact.
- The Pizza Pact: Our family’s funny resolution to eat less pizza – and what it taught us.
- Breakthrough Moments: Three events that changed how I see food, exercise, and my body.
- Joyful Movement: Finding workouts that feel good, not punishing.
- Food Freedom: Letting myself eat what I want and how it changed everything.
- Real Self-Love: How I learned to see my beauty and worth just as I am.
This isn’t about being perfect or “fixing” yourself. It’s about realizing you’re enough, exactly as you are. My journey wasn’t quick or easy, but I hope sharing it reminds you that peace, joy, and self-love are absolutely possible. Join me for this heartfelt conversation!
