The Problem with Loving Your Body
August 09, 2019 08:00 - 21 minutes - 25.9 MBThere's a really specific reason that I decided the subtitle of my new book, The Core 4 couldn't be, "Love Your Body, Own Your Power."

While I think most people who encourage you to "love your body" mean well, if you're in the depths of really negative body image, lacking self-confidence, and struggling with self-acceptance, self-love can feel...

On the Wagon, Off the Wagon
June 28, 2019 08:00 - 28 minutes - 32.9 MBAll-or-nothing thinking is not helpful when it comes to how you approach eating.

If you keep coming back to this way of thinking, start by asking yourself if it's actually helping you find better health and more ease. Probably not.

6 Reasons BMI is Bullshit
June 21, 2019 08:00 - 25 minutes - 30.3 MBI've dabbled with this topic before in other podcast episodes about the scale and diet culture, but I haven't taken on BMI as a separate topic until now.
