#ActuallyICan

Ever feel like you’re stuck in the endless loop of dieting and self-criticism?

Trust me, I’ve been there. In this episode, I sit down with Emmy Bright from Real Good Nutrition to dive into intuitive eating and body acceptance.

In this raw, honest conversation, I get real about my rollercoaster ride with diet culture. From chasing that "perfect" body to dealing with the emotional stress of weight gain, it all led to a life-changing realization: diets were never the answer.

Emmy brings her own transformative story to the table, sharing how her celiac diagnosis reshaped her relationship with food. Together, we shatter diet myths, celebrate self-compassion, and encourage you to embrace your body just as it is.

Here’s a taste of what we get into:

• My personal story of breaking free from diet culture and finding true body acceptance

• The truth behind common diet myths—and why they need to be challenged
• How to start practicing intuitive eating and listen to your body’s natural signals
• Tips for building self-compassion and cultivating a positive body image

This episode is your invitation to ditch the guilt, quiet the food police, and find freedom in your body. Emmy and I want to inspire you to let go of the toxic narratives around dieting and start living a life that feels joyful, healthy, and true to who you are. Tune in for a conversation that’ll leave you feeling empowered to develop a joyful, guilt-free relationship with food.
