Undieting your life doesn’t mean stopping dieting. Although stopping dieting is the first step.

This is today’s episode!

294-Body Compliance Sep 30, 2021

Show notes

Thru their body women are asked to comply with society's prescribed norms. Body compliance defines, controls, and constrains women.

As women, we learn to perform via our bodies. We demonstrated our ability to be self-disciplined, self-controlled, and to comply with social norms via body constraint.

As a result, we learn not to disturb and take space through our bodies. That it is its size or its sign of aging.

Body compliance and beyond

At first, it's compliance with our body, but it spreads quickly to many other aspects of our life:

Need to perform at work
People-pleasing our way through a relationship
Being productive at all times...

Compliance becomes a way of life for many women.

We aim to comply not to stand out and feel the judgment of others. Compliance becomes a safety net that spreads through our life.

What you'll learn listening to this episode:

The history of body compliance for women
The link between compliance and safety
The Intersection between grind culture and diet culture
How to liberate ourselves from the desire to comply

292-Overeating, Binging & Diet Culture Sep 16, 2021

Show notes

Most often, when women start their journey beyond dieting, it’s because they want to overcome compulsive eating behaviors like binging or what they self-describe as “overeating.”

They have learned that restriction is causing these compulsive eating behaviors, so they quit dieting... but is it the solution? Is it the only action that needs to be taken in order to end compulsion around food?

That’s what we discussed on today’s podcast. If perhaps you are at this point where even though you have lifted the restriction and still struggling with "overeating," binging & diet culture this is a must-listen!

What you’ll learn listening to this episode:

The link between restriction and compulsive eating behavior
What most people miss when it comes to compulsive eating behavior
Why making peace with food is not the ultimate solution for binging, overeating or any compulsive behaviors.
The belief that is fundamentally holding your back from eating “normally.”

288-Believing in Yourself More Than Diet Culture Aug 19, 2021

Show notes

Diet culture beliefs do not support your amazingness, your goodness and your brilliance.

Diet Culture has been manufactured in order to create self-doubt in women, feeling of victimhood, distrust of self and disempowerment.

In order to believe in yourself and the possibilities that can be present for you in your life, you need to have beliefs that support this amazingness, goodness that is in you now. And these beliefs aren’t shared by Diet Culture.

How do we get to believe in ourselves more than diet culture? That’s what we are going to explore in this episode of our podcast.

What you’ll learn listening to this episode:

The diet culture beliefs that stop you from believing in yourself
The process of deepening your self-beliefs
Believing it’s possible for you to change
10 non-diet culture beliefs that can transform your life

287-The Not Good Enough Voices with Vanessa Preston Aug 12, 2021

Show notes

Today, we are sharing stories and unpacking one of the most common beliefs women share: the belief that we are not good enough.

And very often, controlling our bodies and beauty are the tools offered to us in order to access our self-worth and confidence, always selling us with the promise that we will feel good enough when we get to the “right body” size and beauty.
Although I consider myself a confident woman today, it hasn’t
always been this way.

Diet culture conditioning and the pursuit of the thin ideal kept me from accessing what was a fact: my innate worth. I was chasing externally what was already present internally.
Our guest expert today Vanessa Preston will help navigate our way back to confidence and feeling good enough.
Vanessa will help us navigate the path back to feeling good enough.
