Do you feel compelled to say “yes” to food during the holidays when someone offers you something that they made? Does saying “no” feel rude, or like some form of restriction brought on by diet culture?
If you’re like I used to be, you wrestle with wanting to say yes to people please, and to prove to yourself that you’ve broken all of your former dieting food rules. But you also want to be able to say no when you’re not hungry for something, or when your body is telling you that it’s 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 it’s your favorite. And your mom will want you to try the new cheese dip she made from a recipe she saw on TikTok.
We’re diving into how to politely say “no” when you don’t 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 you’re 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 doesn’t feel like restriction)
-When and how to say NO to food during the holidays
-Scripts for ways you can politely say “no, thank you” and listen to your body when someone offers you food you’re not hungry for

It’s that time of year where you’re going to be seeing people you haven’t 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, it’s easy to assume that “everyone” 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, we’re 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 you’re 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 you’ve ever hidden food wrappers or candy wrappers in the trash, because you want to hide the evidence of what you’ve 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 you’re eating, about your body, about your weight, and about what you believe you “should” be doing in order to be healthy.
Perhaps you’ve gotten judgmental comments from other people about what you’re 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 kids’ Halloween candy when they were sleeping and hid the evidence so that they wouldn’t be mad at you (I see you, moms and dads!).
The thing is, you don’t need to be ashamed of eating. Hiding the wrappers only fuels the shame and the inner narrative that you shouldn’t have eaten that food in the first place (which, ironically, just makes you want it more).
In this episode, we’re 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 let’s 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 what’s spooky to me? The ways that diet culture and fatphobia are running rampant this Halloween.
What I’m 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 you’re over here, trying to make peace with food, while you’re still receiving and subconsciously buying into these messages that are holding you back. You’re stuck thinking about food all the time, worrying that you’re 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 there’s that little nagging voice in the back of your head constantly telling you that you’re eating too much and that you’d feel better about yourself if you lost some weight.
OF COURSE you’re having a hard time making peace with food when the world around us is constantly sending you these messages, and we’re 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 “health”
- The “earn and burn” 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 it’s a bad boyfriend that you want to like, but just aren’t able to commit to long-term? You’re not alone!
In this episode, we’re going to dig into the blocks you might be experiencing with exercise. Whether you enjoy working out, but you just can’t seem to stick with a routine, or you hate working out and can’t 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 “diet and exercise” together as if they are peanut butter and jelly.
Let’s 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 isn’t going to be based on calories or weight)
- Shake things up and work through discomfort - discover how!

Today we are talking about something that doesn’t get discussed very often in the intuitive eating space…fruits 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 “bad/unhealthy.”
But rarely do we talk about intentionally including fruits and veggies, or how to make peace with the “good/healthy” 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 doesn’t 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 “gloom” to “bloom” 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 you’re doing again)
-Questions to ask yourself while you’re eating and after you’re 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 “fat,” 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 “Macronutrient Series” where I’m covering the macronutrients: carbohydrates, protein and (you guessed it) FAT!
In this episode we’re digging into fat and what your body fat does for you, as well as the role of fat in your food. If you’ve 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.
We’re 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.
Let’s 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 (they’re NOT the same thing)
-Should you worry about “healthy” fats vs “unhealthy” fats?
-How to approach fat within the context of intuitive eating

In this episode, I’m 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.
I’m 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: You’ve 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 you’re not “officially” on a diet).
2. Changing the way you eat requires changing the way you think about food: It’s one thing to let yourself eat the foods you consider “unhealthy” - it’s 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.

You’ve probably tried to lose weight before in order to feel healthier or more confident. Heck, you’ve maybe even experienced increased confidence and better health as a result of weight loss in the past…But was it sustainable?
We don’t want to build your confidence on a house of cards that crumbles the minute you fall off the bandwagon or gain weight.
You deserve to have more stable confidence than this. And it ain’t going to come from chasing the number on the scale.
In this episode, I’m going to share what you need to focus on instead of weight loss if you want to feel better about your body.
Key Takeaways
1. What we have been taught “looks good” is based on diet culture’s narrow definition of health, beauty and attractiveness.
2. The problem(s) with attaching your confidence to weight loss: It hinges upon doing something nearly impossible.
3. 2 key strategies to improve your confidence: HOW you can choose to start thinking differently about your weight, your body, your health…and your confidence.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain to share with you what the conversation sounds like with my clients if they’re slipping back into old habits.
I want to normalize that this happens, and it doesn’t mean you’re failing, that intuitive eating doesn’t work, or that there’s something wrong with you.
Rather than going into a shame spiral that makes you just want to throw in the towel, it’s important to be curious when you’re 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.
I’m 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 we’ve been trying to change. This happens to everyone, whether it be with food, or exercise, or going to bed on time, or maybe you’re 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 don’t 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 “non-dieter” actually is)
2. What I say to clients when they’ve 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, it’s so tempting to try and lose weight before vacations. In fact, it almost feels like you’re supposed to lose weight before a trip.
I’m here to have a big sis heart-to-heart with you today to let you know that cutting out carbs and restricting your food isn’t going to make you happier on vacation. It’s going to make you miserable.
In this episode, we’re 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 I’m going to show you what to do instead when it comes to your strategy with eating.
You’ll learn how to incorporate satisfying food, without cutting out your favorite sweets or desserts, and how to do this without going overboard. I’m going to show you the utility of flexible structure with food and menu planning (minus the diet mentality).
We’re 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
Don’t 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). (Don’t 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 haven’t seen in a while. Even if they judge you, it’s going to be ok. You don’t have to spend your life dieting and obsessing about food to win their approval. Be in the photos. Capture the memories. Don’t scrutinize yourself.Today’s 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 we’re 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 you’re feeling stuck, frustrated, ashamed, and worried that things will never get better - I’ve got you covered. We’re 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, that’s 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 you’re eating enough The areas of your life to audit to see what’s 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, I’m here to support you through it. Let’s dig in!
Today’s Wellness Woo is euphemisms like “play food” and “sometimes food.”

Do you have old clothes in your closet that no longer fit, but you’re hoping that you’ll 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 “motivation” 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 isn’t a magic potion for weight loss. (In fact, it’s a recipe for failure - and I don’t use that word lightly.)

What to say if your child ever says, “I feel fat,” or if they are called fat by kids at school or someone in their life.
Learn the do’s and don’ts 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 children’s 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 “get healthier” (i.e. lose weight) to feel better about herself and to silence the bullies, and how these attempts at helping missed the mark.
It’s 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 “healthy body image” doesn’t 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, “I feel fat”: 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 you’re feeling lost or confused with intuitive eating!
Given that intuitive eating is an approach towards food that’s much different from dieting because it doesn’t include rules to follow, it’s easy to feel like you’re floundering like a fish out of water, or that you don’t 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, “Discover the Satisfaction Factor,” as our North Star to help all of the other Principles fall into place.
I’m 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). I’ll be teaching you how to approach eating intentionally each day, so that your body gets what it needs, and it doesn’t become a free-for-all with food.
Key Takeaways
1. Satisfaction as the “hub” of intuitive eating: Why you should focus on this if you’re feeling lost or stuck
2. Importance of having a consistent eating schedule: This is going to help you tune into your hunger/fullness, and it’s 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, “Discover the Satisfaction Factor” will help you implement all of the other principles with more clarity Just because you feel stuck or worried that intuitive eating won’t work for you doesn’t mean you should give up.

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 didn’t know and things I didn’t realize in the very beginning.
In this episode, we’ll dig into Principle 3 of intuitive eating, which is called “Make Peace With Food,” you’re going to see that having peace with food doesn’t just mean eating whatever the heck you want, whenever you want it.
If you’ve been trying to figure out how you can ditch dieting, embrace intuitive eating, and make peace with food, today’s episode is exactly what you need to hear! I’m 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 “ah-ha” moments as well.
Key Takeaways
1. Neutralizing your judgments about food: You can’t truly have peace with food if you’re still labeling it as good/bad or healthy/unhealthy
2. Intuitive eating vs impulsive eating: Eating “whatever you want, whenever you want” isn’t going to get you where you want to be.
3. Peace with food means saying yes AND no to food: It’s equally as important to let yourself eat what you desire, as well as being able to say no to food when you’re not hungry or it doesn’t meet your body’s needs.
Episode Highlights
A deep dive into why Principle 3 of Intuitive Eating, “Make Peace With Food” is such a game changer. Saying “no” to food without it feeling restrictive Make sure you go listen to Episode 140 which pairs with this episode!Resources Mentioned

This episode is part of the MACRONUTRIENT SERIES which contains episodes about carbohydrates, protein and fat. Make sure you’re subscribed so that you automatically get all of the episodes, and go back and listen to the protein episode after you’re done with this one. IIt’s linked below.
Today we are talking about carbohydrates, aka “carbs.” Carbs are so scary these days that you could dress up as bread for Halloween and send chills down people’s spines (maybe a slight exaggeration). Diet culture has us thinking that we’re going to gain a ton of weight and instantly get diabetes if we have carbs, but that’s not how it works.
We’re going to break down the science behind carbs, how to figure out what amount of carbs is right for YOUR body’s individual needs, and how to use the skills of intuitive eating to figure this out…no tracking or measuring required!
Key Takeaways
1. What even are carbs?
2. What happens when you don’t eat enough carbs
3. What happens when you eat too many carbs
4. How many carbs do you need per day?
