tired of trying to accept your body? same... what's next

Episode 90

Sunday, November 12, 2023 • Duration 08:43

In a world that is so obsessed with being thin, it feels like an endless upstream battle to eat without guilt and feel good about one's body. You're probably exhausted, I'm exhausted. I'm also tired of seeing my patients struggle and I'm exhausted hearing about doctors pushing ozempic/weight loss on my patients.

In this ep, I talk about how I feel about my industry, how hopeless it can feel sometimes, and why I'll be pausing this podcast for now.

For 7-8 years of my 20s my self-worth revolved around my body, food was my obsession. Now that I'm in my early 30s, my obsession has transferred over to career and financial success. Living in a big city (Silicon Valley), it feels like all that matters is your job title, career progression and financial status. It feels like diet culture, trying to be better, do more, like nothing is enough.

If you want to follow me in this next chapter where I tackle this desire to success and not get left behind financially, then I invite you to...

Feeling like people are better than you, kinder, smarter, prettier...

Episode 89

Tuesday, August 8, 2023 • Duration 44:04

Shame causes us to feel less than, different, not good enough. It causes us to feel one degree of separation from the person we think is better than us in some way (success, money, intelligence, appearance, etc.

"I am lesser than the other person or other people, and I am on the outside looking in." - Joanne Kim

Today I have on Joanne Kim, a therapist-turned Feelings Translator who helps Highly Sensitive Persons turn their BIGGEST feelings into their GREATEST superpower! The people who work with her are often the first (or only) person in their family or communities to intuitively process and express feelings; consequently, they are often judged or criticized so that they learn to people-please, placate, or perform until they hit a wall. When Joanne shares about her approach to working with feelings, the #1 response she gets is, "Why didn't they teach me this in school?!?" Grab the free guide "The BIG Feeler First Aid Kit" to learn how to navigate your feelings when they show up when you least expect (or want) them! www.IntelligentEmotions.com/FirstAidKit You can find Joanne on Instagram: www.instagram.com/intelligentemotions LINKS AND RESOURCES

A binge eating dietitian reviews The Whale - how grief and low self-esteem can spiral

Episode 79

Monday, January 16, 2023 • Duration 22:42

SPOILERS AHEAD

"He's literally trapped himself in his body. At one point he disregarded that he had a body. He no longer cared. He didn't feel like he deserved any better".

In today's episode, I share my thoughts on this gut wrenching movie and what it means for all of us.

how low self-esteem causes us to self sabotage
the negative spiral of disappointing yourself over and over again
what do you feel you deserve
why someone may be burying themselves alive with food/binge eating
how grief, remorse, regret, low self esteem, self hatred can cause us to binge
why someone may not be able to stop eating
how much do youu value yourself and your own happiness/health
how many patients of mine are like Charlie
how guilt/shame causes binges
how judgement of others, feeling disgusting causes more self sabotage
can we really be healthy at ANY size

In his last days, the main character Charlie wanted to do things differently, change his beliefs, and make things right.

It's always possible to believe new things, build up our own self esteem by doing the things that matter, and in turn feel more deserving of good tthings. We have a whole life ahead of us. Imagine spending the majority of our days believing that we're good people, that we can do good for the world, that we can say true to our words, that we deserve more. Had Charlie done that earlier, he probably would have felt better about himself and perhaps gotten the support that he needed.

If you don't TRUST yourself around food, how can you trust yourself to make big life decisions...

Episode 78

Monday, January 9, 2023 • Duration 34:09

TRUST is a forever work in progress - with yourself, with others, with food, with anything in life. If you can trust yourself with something small, you likely have the ability to trust yourself with bigger things.

Today I have the absolute pleasure of welcoming Emily Feikls, host of the podcast I'm Trying. Emily just took a BIG leap of faith. She quit her job and is living on her own in Houston as a content creator, entrepreneur, and podcast host. She is trying like all of us and has cultivated such a tremendous amount of trust in herself. Hopefully this episode will help you cultivate more confidence and trust in yourself, whether it's with food decisions or otherwise.

In this episode, we get to hear:

Emily's struggles with food/body and mental health
doing the work of calming her nervous system
ways to stop intrusive thoughts
how to make huge life transitions and just GOING FOR IT
cultivating trust with herself around food AND big life decisions

Is Intuitive Eating Right for YOU? (after years of dieting and bingeing)

Episode 77

Monday, January 2, 2023 • Duration 24:38

Take the quiz - Is Intuitive Eating Right for YOU?

One last diet? Or is it time to try something radically different?

Why you're here - perhaps years of dieting hasn't worked and you're tired of having seasons of being on the bandwagon/disciplined and then seasons of going off the rails.

Today's ep:

What is Intuitive Eating --> TLDR venn diagram between LOGIC x EMOTIONS x PHYSICAL CUES
We can't be 100% logical everyday forever because WE ARE NOT ROBOTS
Do you trust your hunger/fullness
Fear of losing control
Is food your answer to every emotion? What do you really need?
What beliefs do you hold about your body, where do they come from?

Remember, the most beautiful and appreciated among us are those who dared to be different and remain true to themselves. They pushed forward until the world recognized what they had to offer.

If you're ready to release the brainspace that dieting has controlled for so long, I encourage you to stay tuned and join along.

Feeling stuck: overeating & not exercising

Episode 76

Monday, December 26, 2022 • Duration 09:39

Overwhelmed by the idea of starting a new year and getting back "on track"?

In today's episode, I talk about why you're feeling stuck and I have a feeling it has to do with your need to do everything perfectly. Whenever we think about new habits, we have lofty ideas of doing it everyday (i.e. journaling, sleeping earlier, moving daily, eating more veggies, etc).

BUT are you being realistic and sprinkling in a healthy dose of flexibility?

Today's ep:

what's causing you to stay stuck
why lofty goals may be causing you to feel overwhelmed
how to close the gap between lofty expections and your actual day-to-day life
what does CONSISTENTLY SUSTAINABLE look like to you

How ketamine therapy can shift the way we see our bodies

Episode 75

Monday, December 19, 2022 • Duration 33:29

"Psychedelics can help us remember truths we've always known about ourselves."

Jenny Weinar, LCSW

Today I have the pleasure of welcoming Jenny Weinar, LCSW onto the podcast!

Jenny is a Psychedelic Assisted Therapist providing ketamine assisted psychotherapy in Philadelphia as well as virtual psychedelic integration therapy in Pennsylvania, Colorado and New Jersey. She weaves Western mental health treatment with the sacredness of psychedelics to help people come home to themselves and remember the truth of who they are.

"People logically want to believe that they're beautiful enough, good enough... but just can't.

Sometimes with psychedelics, you get a glimpse of universal love and that is fertile ground for healing."

Jenny Weinar, LCSW

"I'm feeling bloated and hate my stomach"

Episode 74

Monday, December 12, 2022 • Duration 10:04

Why we may feel so strongly about our stomachs
- biological
- health
- a sign of willpower, self control, SES, and more

Do a check in - does bloating have a pattern, does it relate to your menstrual cycle, what foods you eat
There's nothing you're doing wrong
Gas is a transient thing, it will pass
So what if your stomach is bigger
So what if it doesn't fall under the ideal shape
Body appreciation exercise
- what function does this body part provide you
- what messages have you received about this body part in your life?
- what would you adult self react in that past situation?
