This is hard. Doing things differently is hard. In this episode, I talk about the excitement of the "aha" moments of insight and clarity. In a recent talk I gave to nutrition students, a brave student shared how hearing the talk was bringing up a lot for her and that she may be ready to get support for her own relationship with food. There was beauty and pain in that moment - beauty in h...

How does that change how we feel about our progress? Who gets to define our success? In putting ourselves out there, could success be us being courageous enough to just show up? Maybe success is the proce...

Two dietitians, two podcasters - Michelle Yates, RD and I discuss some of the many nuances around intuitive eating and practicing nutrition from a weight-inclusive perspective.

Special Guest: Jesse Saffold, LCSW! My partner in life has agreed to come on the podcast!
