Hey Rebel!
Imagine waking up every day consumed by thoughts of food, haunted by the scale, and trapped in a relentless cycle of restriction followed by loss of control. If this resonates with you, know that you're not alone. This was once my reality, and it was also the reality for today's guest, my past group coaching client, Rachel.
In today's episode, we delve into how Rachel has rebuilt her relationship with food—from a regimen of strict control to embracing body cues with compassion, from emotional eating to savoring meals with genuine pleasure, and becoming a confident intuitive eater. Rachel not only enjoys a wide variety of foods today but also sets an empowering example for her children, raising them now as intuitive eaters!
Fear and insecurity around food has opened up a path to true food freedom for Rachel and her family, and I hope you leave inspired by her transformational story!

Today we are answering a question submitted by a listener named Veronica. She asks, "What do you think about coaches who promote body transformations, the before and after, the way they work?

There's nothing I love more than hearing people who struggled with their relationships with food for so long recount how intuitive eating changed their lives for the better. That's the story you'll be hearing today, as my past group coaching client, Michelle, shares how she went from obsessing over food, struggling with her body image, and overcoming addiction, to now being in a place where she can go on spontaneous dates, listen to her body, and never diet again!
Michelle shares so much wisdom about the mindset shifts she made to begin challenging her relationship with food. She realized that if you are going to have to eat every day for the rest of your life, you might as well make the best of it!
You'll also hear her discuss:

Hey Rebel. Recently, an Oprah special came out titled "shame, blame and the weight loss revolution", all about the popular weight loss drugs right now... and it got a lot of attention. So I decided to watch the special so you don't have to and today I am breaking it down with all of my thoughts... and I have a lot.
Surprisingly, there are a few things I agree with. But there are more things that I have concerns about...
Give it a listen to hear all about the special and even more about the science (or lack thereof) behind these medications.
