Obsessed with food, your body, or your weight? In this episode, I share why disconnection is at the root of every meltdown about body changes, and how connection is the opposite of obsession. I dive into how vulnerability (without over-sharing) helps you build real connection, and how connecting with yourself cultivates lasting self-worth. I also offer actionable guided journal prompts to help you practice self-honesty, tune into your body and emotions, and take tangible steps toward peace and presence. If you’re ready to stop criticizing your body and start living in it fully, this episode will give you both insight and tools to get started.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Jennifer Caspari, author of You Are More Than Your Body, for a compassionate and deeply practical conversation about body image healing, body acceptance, and self-worth. We explore what body neutrality and radical acceptance actually look like in real life, not forced positivity or “just love your body,” but learning how to stop fighting reality and step out of the constant tug-of-war with your body. Drawing from both clinical expertise and lived experience with disability, chronic pain, and fatigue, Jennifer shares grounded tools for emotion regulation, easing harsh self-talk, making room for discomfort, and understanding the difference between pain and suffering. Whether you struggle with body image, food, chronic illness, or perfectionism, this episode offers tangible guidance for staying connected to yourself, building unconditional self-worth, and using your energy to live your life instead of battling your body.

In this Q&A-style episode, I answer the most common vacation and holiday questions IG users submitted after my first trip traveling with a five-month-old. I share how I navigate eating more on vacation without guilt, being in a swimsuit postpartum, noticing bloating and water retention without letting it hijack my mood, letting go of food rules and routines, making food choices effortlessly, and taking breaks from exercise without panic.
Drawing from my own recent experience, I explain why discomfort on vacation doesn’t mean you’ve done something wrong, and how healing your relationship with food and your body is less about avoiding triggers and more about staying regulated, present, and self-compassionate when they arise. This episode is for anyone who wants to enjoy travel, holidays, and time away without food obsession, body shame, or the urge to “get back on track” afterward.

In this episode, I sit down with therapist and body image expert Zoë Bisbing, LCSW, to unpack the evolution of body positivity—what it is, where it’s gone, and whether it’s truly helping us heal. We explore the rise of “Skinnytok,” the shift toward body neutrality and food neutrality, and why these concepts may be more supportive for those recovering from a childhood shaped by diet culture.
Whether you're doing your own healing work, or you're a parent—or hope to be one—you'll find compassionate, practical strategies here. Zoë shares ways to support kids through body image struggles, weight changes, and how to talk about food, exercise, and health without linking them to worth or identity. This is a must-listen for anyone wanting to break the intergenerational cycle of body shame and raise resilient, body-confident kids!
