Nothing screams diet-binge cycle quite like slimming clubs! We've both been to diet clubs close to 10 times each, so we know what it's like. They might work for a handful of people, but for the rest of us, they're TOXIC and destroy our relationships with food. They place moral value on foods, shame us if we put on weight, and charge us a fortune in the meantime. We don't know what the answer is, but we know our experiences with slimming clubs have impacted our relationships with our bodies for the worse - and we know we're not the only ones.

We don't know about you, but exercise has ALWAYS been made to feel like punishment.  Like the only way we can be worthy is by eating less and moving more. Exercise can be incredible for mental health and stress relief, but it's hard to untangle that from allll the diet culture bullshit. Tally Rye created intuitive movement, inspired by the concept of intuitive eating. It's all about re-learning what it is your body actually wants, as opposed to what you think you should be doing, according to diet culture. So this week she joined us to explain what intuitive movement is, and how we can improve our relationships with exercise.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This month the UK Government are introducing regulations that say all large restaurants and cafes have to start displaying calories on menus.

This week, we want to tell you a bit more about our stories so you can understand where we’re coming from when we talk about fighting diet culture and growing to love ourselves. We’re both now plus size, but we have very different stories. Laura grew up bigger and has had a problem with comfort eating for as long as she can remember.  Meanwhile, Lauren grew up smaller, but was made self conscious of her body from a young age, and gained weight later in life as a result of trauma.  In a culture rife with diet-culture and fatphobia, we all have similar experiences of low self-esteem and problematic relationships with our bodies and food. But we’ve also all been taught to hide it and feel ashamed. We're here to stop that, and hopefully, you can find some comfort in our stories today!

Lovely listeners, this week we’re hitting you with some of our HOT TAKES. Because this week, we just wanted to chat through some of the trends we’ve been seeing across our TikToks. What are almond mums, and is it a good thing that we’re joking about them? Did we all have almond mums? What are our thoughts on Ozempic? Is it ok that so many people are getting fillers? Would WE ever get fillers? Allll these burning questions and more, in this week’s episode!

Ever wondered why so many of us grew up to hate ourselves? Wellll, movies are another one of those big culprits... We've got the obvious ones like Bridget Jones, and the fat joke heavy ones like Norbit, and DON'T EVEN GET US STARTED ON SHALLOW HAL! But, there's also the more innocuous ones, that we kind of do love. Like Mean Girls and Love Actually, which sadly are actually filled with toxic diet culture. So, in this week's episode we're diving deep into movies, and how they impacted our body image ❤️ Show Notes Get your live show tickets here!

Despite essentially half the world having to deal with it, contraceptives and women’s health are STILL taboo topics. But, with so many of us suffering in silence and having little access to reliable information, we need to talk about it. So in this week’s episode, we’re chatting to Dr Becky from The Lowdown, a website where people can add their reviews of different contraceptives, and find reliable information about their options. Or, as they like to call it, the Trip Advisor for your vagina. We myth busted everything from, being on the pill for “too long” and withdrawal bleeds, to the fertility awareness methods and the effectiveness of contraception in larger bodies. PLUS, Laura has some news for us… Show Notes Get your live show tickets here!

It's no secret that magazines were toxic for our body image, especially in the 90s, 00s, and 2010s. Who can forget how people spoke about Jessica Simpson?! That might be permanently scarred in the psyche of all millennials... So, in this week's episode, we're taking a deeper look at those magazines, and how they made us hate ourselves. Spoiler alert: we never stood a chance. Show Notes Get your live show tickets here!

GUYS. It’s only bloody Katie Price!!! For the last 30 years, she’s been part of our lives. From glamour model, to reality TV star, to mum, she’s constantly been been shredded apart by the press.  To this day, she still has drones flying over her house.  We're also joined by Katie's lovely little sister Sophie who co-hosts her new podcast 'The Katie Price Show' alongside her.  And in this episode, we’re having an open and honest chat about her mental health, confidence, and why she’s had so much surgery. We also chatted about 00s nights out, the original spicy book, THAT horse outfit, and Lauren made a new history friend….

Lovely listeners, this might be our most emotional episode yet. We've recently been speaking a bit more on the podcast about our experiences with being child-free, so you might already know that, for numerous reasons, neither of us have kids, despite wanting them. And from the amount of messages we get, we've realised how common this experience is, despite how isolating it can feel. So in this episode, we're getting real about our experiences, and where we're currently at with this. We're also chatting to the incredible Jody Day, aka the BEYONCE of Childlessness, about her advice on grief and what a childless future can look like.  p.s. as you'll hear in our chat, we're aware that child-less and child-free are meant to have different definitions. We're currently more comfortable using the term 'child-free' for ourselves, so that's what we're using in the episode title. It's absolutely not to take away from anyone who's child-free by choice, it's just where we're currently at in our "journey" xx   Resources: Gateway Women: https://gateway-women.com  World Childless Week: https://worldchildlessweek.net Jody's Book: https://gateway-women.com/book/  Show Notes Get your live show tickets here!

It's been a while since we spoke about dealing with other people's opinions, and because we get SO many requests for advice on it, we thought we'd revisit it. Our experiences with it have also changed since our last episode on it: Lauren's been shocked by the water cooler chat at her new job, and Laura's had to make the difficult decision to cut someone judgmental out of her life. So, in this episode, we're diving into our experiences, as well as responding to some of your stories about office nightmares and opinionated families.
