Do you feel compelled to say âyesâ to food during the holidays when someone offers you something that they made? Does saying ânoâ feel rude, or like some form of restriction brought on by diet culture?
If youâre like I used to be, you wrestle with wanting to say yes to people please, and to prove to yourself that youâve broken all of your former dieting food rules. But you also want to be able to say no when youâre not hungry for something, or when your body is telling you that itâs not going to make you feel good.
With the holidays upon us, you know that Aunt Judy will be at the table telling you to take a piece of her pecan pie that she made just for you because she knows itâs your favorite. And your mom will want you to try the new cheese dip she made from a recipe she saw on TikTok.
Weâre diving into how to politely say ânoâ when you donât want to eat something, without feeling rude, and without it being diet-y or restrictive. (Spoiler - it starts with making peace with food in the first place.)
If youâre ready to make this the holiday season where you let your body lead you, so you can enjoy the foods you want, while also honoring your hunger and fullness, then you need to listen to this episode right now!
Episode Highlights:
-The importance of first having permission to say YES to food (so that saying no doesnât feel like restriction)
-When and how to say NO to food during the holidays
-Scripts for ways you can politely say âno, thank youâ and listen to your body when someone offers you food youâre not hungry for

Itâs that time of year where youâre going to be seeing people you havenât seen in a while, and if some of those people have lost a bunch of weight, it can feel really triggering. With GLP-1 medications being all the rage, itâs easy to assume that âeveryoneâ is taking it.
This episode is about understanding and managing your own personal feelings about when other people lose weight. It can stir up feelings of jealousy, envy, anger, second-guessing yourself, insecurity, comparison, inadequacy, concern, annoyance, and so much more.
In this conversation, weâre going to work on preparing you for the next time this happens, and what you can do in those moments when those emotions have been stirred up.
Episode Highlights
-Noticing and naming the emotions that youâre feeling when you see someone who has lost weight
-Shifting from judgment and comparison, to compassion and connection
-Remembering your WHY and your values on your own journey
-Tips for navigating diet talk and weight loss conversations at holiday gatherings

We need to have a heart-to-heart. If youâve ever hidden food wrappers or candy wrappers in the trash, because you want to hide the evidence of what youâve eaten, this conversation is for you.
Eating in secret, and hiding the wrappers is a far more common struggle than most people realize. And it all ties back to a sense of shame about the food youâre eating, about your body, about your weight, and about what you believe you âshouldâ be doing in order to be healthy.
Perhaps youâve gotten judgmental comments from other people about what youâre eating, or about your body. Maybe you are trying to limit or avoid certain foods, such as candy, only to find yourself giving in and eating a bunch and feeling guilty and deeply ashamed. Heck, you might have even stolen a bunch of your kidsâ Halloween candy when they were sleeping and hid the evidence so that they wouldnât be mad at you (I see you, moms and dads!).
The thing is, you donât need to be ashamed of eating. Hiding the wrappers only fuels the shame and the inner narrative that you shouldnât have eaten that food in the first place (which, ironically, just makes you want it more).
In this episode, weâre going to dig into how to break away from secretly eating food, releasing the wrapper shame, and developing the inner peace and confidence to eat unapologetically.
Pop in your earbuds, grab your favorite beverage (and maybe a snack) and letâs dig in!
Episode Highlights
-Why we sneak food
-The shame loop
-Melting the shame and creating guilt-free eating
-Releasing the wrapper shame

You know whatâs spooky to me? The ways that diet culture and fatphobia are running rampant this Halloween.
What Iâm finding is that a lot of what is happening has been so normalized, that it flies under your radar and keeps you stuck with one foot accidentally in diet culture, and the other in the world of intuitive eating.
So youâre over here, trying to make peace with food, while youâre still receiving and subconsciously buying into these messages that are holding you back. Youâre stuck thinking about food all the time, worrying that youâre eating too much sugar, eating impulsively just because you want it, stressing about weight gain, feeling ashamed of your body when you see yourself in photos or look in the mirror, and thereâs that little nagging voice in the back of your head constantly telling you that youâre eating too much and that youâd feel better about yourself if you lost some weight.
OF COURSE youâre having a hard time making peace with food when the world around us is constantly sending you these messages, and weâre going to break this down today using Halloween as our example. This is going to be pretty eye opening to you.
Episode Highlights
- Sexy Halloween costumes that perpetuate the impossible appearance standards placed upon women
- The demonization of sugar, and the fatphobic undertones in this discussion about âhealthâ
- The âearn and burnâ mentality is a dangerous and slippery slope when it comes to how you think about Halloween candy

Do you find yourself in an on again, off again relationship with exercise, like itâs a bad boyfriend that you want to like, but just arenât able to commit to long-term? Youâre not alone!
In this episode, weâre going to dig into the blocks you might be experiencing with exercise. Whether you enjoy working out, but you just canât seem to stick with a routine, or you hate working out and canât fathom ever finding it fun or enjoyable.
Our relationship with exercise tends to be complicated, just like our relationship with food. And these two topics are often closely intertwined as well, because diet culture has taught us to pair âdiet and exerciseâ together as if they are peanut butter and jelly.
Letâs break down the reasons you have a block against exercise, as well as how to overcome these blocks so that you can learn how to move your body in ways that work for you at this phase of your life.
Episode Highlights:
- Create your exercise timeline, to gain clarity on what exactly is blocking you with exercise, and what types of movement you might actually learn to enjoy long-term
- Identify your WHY when it comes to exercise (and no, it isnât going to be based on calories or weight)
- Shake things up and work through discomfort - discover how!

Today we are talking about something that doesnât get discussed very often in the intuitive eating spaceâŠfruits and veggies.
We (of course) focus a lot in the beginning of the intuitive eating journey on making peace with things like donuts, burgers, pizza, french fries, ice cream, and things that diet culture has told us are âbad/unhealthy.â
But rarely do we talk about intentionally including fruits and veggies, or how to make peace with the âgood/healthyâ foods that diet culture told us we HAD TO eat for so long - to the point that you might gag at the thought of forcing yourself to choke down another salad.
Diet culture doesnât get to co-opt fruits and veggies anymore! We get to reclaim them as part of enjoyable eating, and gentle nutrition.
Hit play and get ready to dig into how to think differently about fruits and veggies as part of intuitive eating.
Episode Highlights:
-How to take your feelings about fruits and veggies from âgloomâ to âbloomâ so you can enjoy them again!
-The key mindset shift that you need to make about fruits and veggies before you try to intentionally increase your intake of them
-My easy strategy + tool for how to start eating more fruits and veggies (without it becoming a diet-y thing youâre doing again)
-Questions to ask yourself while youâre eating and after youâre done eating to help you learn to intuitively desire and ENJOY fruits and veggies as a normal part of your daily routine

When I say âfat,â what comes to mind? Do you think about the fat in food, or the fat in our bodies? Does it have a negative connotation in your mind?
This is the 3rd part of the âMacronutrient Seriesâ where Iâm covering the macronutrients: carbohydrates, protein and (you guessed it) FAT!
In this episode weâre digging into fat and what your body fat does for you, as well as the role of fat in your food. If youâve ever felt like eating high-fat foods is unhealthy, or worried that eating things high in fat was going to cause weight gain or increase your risk of heart disease, then this is the episode for you.
Weâre going to break down everything you need to know about fat, and how to approach it from a gentle nutrition standpoint within your intuitive eating journey.
Letâs do this!
Episode Highlights
-What we learned from the low-fat era (besides how bad fat-free salad dressing tastes)
-The difference between fat in food and fat in your body (theyâre NOT the same thing)

In this episode, Iâm sharing how my client was able to FINALLY find peace with both food and her body after struggling with dieting, food obsession, forcing herself to exercise, and hating her body for over a decade.
Iâm walking you through the exact steps we took, and the strategies I taught her that allowed her to heal her relationship with food, her body and exercise.
If you are struggling with any of these things, then this episode is a *must* listen!
Key Takeaways
1. Dismantling the diet mentality and letting go of dieting behaviors: Youâve got to understand how the diet mentality shows up in your thoughts in order to move away from dieting behaviors (which are often still present even if youâre not âofficiallyâ on a diet).
2. Changing the way you eat requires changing the way you think about food: Itâs one thing to let yourself eat the foods you consider âunhealthyâ - itâs another thing to change how you view these foods and how you feel about yourself for eating them. This is essential for lasting peace with food.
3. Weight and health are not the same thing: You can improve your health without obsessing about weight loss. True health is so much more than this, and by letting go of your weight obsession it opens the door to you addressing your health in ways that are effective.

In this episode, Iâm pulling back the curtain to share with you what the conversation sounds like with my clients if theyâre slipping back into old habits.
I want to normalize that this happens, and it doesnât mean youâre failing, that intuitive eating doesnât work, or that thereâs something wrong with you.
Rather than going into a shame spiral that makes you just want to throw in the towel, itâs important to be curious when youâre slipping back into old habits, and to explore what is happening to better understand it so that you can gain clarity on how to move forward.
Iâm going to walk you through exactly how I do that with my clients. This is an important episode for anyone to hear, because we all slip back into old habits that weâve been trying to change. This happens to everyone, whether it be with food, or exercise, or going to bed on time, or maybe youâre trying to show up differently in your relationships or at work.
Bottom line, behavior change is hard, and this conversation is going to help you see how to get through some of the ups and downs so you donât give up on yourself or your process towards finding peace with food.
Key Takeaways
1. A roadmap to making peace with food: My 5 phases to becoming a non-dieter (and what a ânon-dieterâ actually is)
2. What I say to clients when theyâve slipped into old habits: How I melt the shame, the questions I ask them, and next steps to move forward
3. 2 Case Examples: Clients who struggled with falling back into old habits, and how they worked through this

I know, I know, itâs so tempting to try and lose weight before vacations. In fact, it almost feels like youâre supposed to lose weight before a trip.
Iâm here to have a big sis heart-to-heart with you today to let you know that cutting out carbs and restricting your food isnât going to make you happier on vacation. Itâs going to make you miserable.
In this episode, weâre going to talk about how to handle those urges to get back on the dieting bandwagon before a trip or special event such as a party or wedding, and Iâm going to show you what to do instead when it comes to your strategy with eating.
Youâll learn how to incorporate satisfying food, without cutting out your favorite sweets or desserts, and how to do this without going overboard. Iâm going to show you the utility of flexible structure with food and menu planning (minus the diet mentality).
Weâre also going to dig into some strategies with body image so that you can wear the swimsuit, show your bare arms in that dress you bought, and be in the photos - no more avoiding these things!
Key Takeaways
Donât be dieting and restricting to lose weight before a vacation or event. This will backfire on you. Plan satisfying meals and snacks to help you stay in the headspace of eating intuitively and providing yourself with food you enjoy (rather than restricting). (Donât forget to grab the templates for this at nondietacademy.com/menuplan) Wear the darn swimsuit. Desensitize yourself to it by DOING IT. Wear it at home to practice if you need to. Find a style you like. Work through your fears of judgment about your body from people who you havenât seen in a while. Even if they judge you, itâs going to be ok. You donât have to spend your life dieting and obsessing about food to win their approval. Be in the photos. Capture the memories. Donât scrutinize yourself.Todayâs Wellness Woo is cortisol.

Ice cream is hands down my favorite food of all time. I often eat it as my snack in the evening before bed (and yes, sometimes I literally eat it in bed).
However, if you find yourself binging on ice cream (or any other food) at night, and if it is basically the only thing you have to look forward to in your life, then (I say this lovingly, because I care about you), we need to have a chit chat - which is what weâre doing in this episode.
If food is the only thing that brings you joy, and if binging every night is your pattern at the end of the day, and youâre feeling stuck, frustrated, ashamed, and worried that things will never get better - Iâve got you covered. Weâre going to talk about how to break out of this cycle, so that you can still enjoy food AND your life outside of food, without food having more importance than it should.
Key Takeaways
If food is the only thing in your life you look forward to, thatâs telling us something really important What your Total Conscious Time (TCT) has to do with your eating How to decrease food obsession by first making sure youâre eating enough The areas of your life to audit to see whatâs lacking and what areas need attention outside of foodDecreasing the space that food is taking up will allow you to let LIFE in, which might be really fun and exciting, and it might be really hard and challenging. No matter your experience, Iâm here to support you through it. Letâs dig in!

Do you have old clothes in your closet that no longer fit, but youâre hoping that youâll lose some weight and be able to wear them again?
Have you ever bought something in a smaller size that you currently wear to use it as âmotivationâ to lose weight? Perhaps a smaller bathing suit for an upcoming vacation, or you ordered your wedding dress a size smaller than you are now?
Well, I hate to tell ya, but purchasing and holding onto clothes that are too small isnât a magic potion for weight loss. (In fact, itâs a recipe for failure - and I donât use that word lightly.)
In this episode weâre not just digging into your closet - weâre digging into your BELIEFS about your body. Grab your pen and paper, and maybe a sparkling water, and letâs unpack your clothes AND your body image.

What to say if your child ever says, âI feel fat,â or if they are called fat by kids at school or someone in their life.
Learn the doâs and donâts of navigating these tricky conversations, whether you have small kids at home, teenagers, or even adult children.
Erin Kerns Vazquez is my guest today, and she is going to walk us through how she went from dieting since the age of 10, to wholeheartedly embracing body acceptance and intuitive eating.
Erin was bullied about her weight as a kid, and she wrote a childrenâs book about what messages she looks back and recognizes she needed to hear at a young age about her body. She describes the well-intentioned ways that adults in her life tried to help her âget healthierâ (i.e. lose weight) to feel better about herself and to silence the bullies, and how these attempts at helping missed the mark.
Itâs a powerful conversation about healing your own body image, unpacking the messages you received about your body (and bodies in general) during childhood, the way that diet culture has reinforced these messages, and what you can do to foster a healthy body image for yourself and the children in your life.
Key Takeaways
1. Beliefs about our bodies start young: The way we see our parents talking about their own bodies impacts how we feel about our own bodies, even now as adults.
2. A âhealthy body imageâ doesnât necessarily mean body positivity: Rather, it means that you have peace and neutrality with your body (even on the days you might wish it were different).
3. What to say (and NOT say) to your kids if they say, âI feel fatâ: Be clear and confident for how you navigate these tricky conversations with your kids, as you support them in navigating body image in a weight-obsessed world.

Get unstuck if youâre feeling lost or confused with intuitive eating!
Given that intuitive eating is an approach towards food thatâs much different from dieting because it doesnât include rules to follow, itâs easy to feel like youâre floundering like a fish out of water, or that you donât know what you do.
Rather than winging it with food, I am going to show you how to regroup and refocus your energy on the things that are going to help you master the skills of intuitive eating like a seasoned pro.
To do so, we are going to use Principle 6 of intuitive eating, âDiscover the Satisfaction Factor,â as our North Star to help all of the other Principles fall into place.
Iâm also going to show you how having structure with food is going to HELP you eat more intuitively (and yes, this might sound counter-intuitive, but hear me out). Iâll be teaching you how to approach eating intentionally each day, so that your body gets what it needs, and it doesnât become a free-for-all with food.
Key Takeaways
1. Satisfaction as the âhubâ of intuitive eating: Why you should focus on this if youâre feeling lost or stuck
2. Importance of having a consistent eating schedule: This is going to help you tune into your hunger/fullness, and itâs going to help your body know what to expect
3. The 3 questions to ask yourself before you eat: This is going to help you honor your cravings AND your nutritional needs
Episode Highlights
Focusing on Principle 6 of Intuitive Eating, âDiscover the Satisfaction Factorâ will help you implement all of the other principles with more clarity Just because you feel stuck or worried that intuitive eating wonât work for you doesnât mean you should give up. Join my upcoming masterclass on how to troubleshoot why intuitive eating isnât working for you, and how to get unstuckResources Mentioned

What I would tell you in the very beginning so that you can implement intuitive eating the right way, without getting lost, stuck or way off base! This episode goes hand-in-hand with the next episode, #140: How to Refocus If You Feel Lost or Stuck With Intuitive Eating. You can think of these episodes like sisters or besties, so make sure you listen to that one next!
Looking back, I wish someone would have told me a few things when I was first getting into intuitive eating and healing my own relationship with food. Even as a dietitian, there were things I didnât know and things I didnât realize in the very beginning.
In this episode, weâll dig into Principle 3 of intuitive eating, which is called âMake Peace With Food,â youâre going to see that having peace with food doesnât just mean eating whatever the heck you want, whenever you want it.
If youâve been trying to figure out how you can ditch dieting, embrace intuitive eating, and make peace with food, todayâs episode is exactly what you need to hear! Iâm going to share the mindset shift that completely changed how I approach my eating, and it is something that has given tons of my clients their own âah-haâ moments as well.
Key Takeaways
1. Neutralizing your judgments about food: You canât truly have peace with food if youâre still labeling it as good/bad or healthy/unhealthy
2. Intuitive eating vs impulsive eating: Eating âwhatever you want, whenever you wantâ isnât going to get you where you want to be.
3. Peace with food means saying yes AND no to food: Itâs equally as important to let yourself eat what you desire, as well as being able to say no to food when youâre not hungry or it doesnât meet your bodyâs needs.
Episode Highlights
A deep dive into why Principle 3 of Intuitive Eating, âMake Peace With Foodâ is such a game changer. Saying ânoâ to food without it feeling restrictive Make sure you go listen to Episode 140 which pairs with this episode!Resources Mentioned

Diet culture has us thinking that weâre going to gain a ton of weight and instantly get diabetes if we have carbs, but thatâs not how it works.
Weâre going to break down the science behind carbs, how to figure out what amount of carbs is right for YOUR bodyâs individual needs, and how to use the skills of intuitive eating to figure this outâŠno tracking or measuring required!
Key Takeaways
1. What even are carbs?
2. What happens when you donât eat enough carbs
3. What happens when you eat too many carbs
4. How many carbs do you need per day?
