New on the Pod! We're talking to @katiesturino t New on the Pod! We're talking to @katiesturino this week all about her new book Body Talk: How to Embrace Your Body and Start Living Your Best Life. And make no mistake, this book might be funny and beautiful to look at but, as Katie says in our interview, underneath all those cute & colorful illustrations, it's a a real f&ck the patriarchy book deep down. If you've been struggling to embrace your body and stop waiting on the weight to go make the life you really want happen, today's episode is a must-listen. We dive into exactly how kick body shame to the curb and start showing up as the woman you're truly meant to be. Because honestly, you were made for more than counting almonds and jumping in the pool with your t shirt on. Tap the link in the bio to tune in👆.
⠀ When we were deep in our own struggles with fo ⠀ When we were deep in our own struggles with food and body image, constantly starting a new meal plan just to “fall off the wagon” a few days later, it didn’t seem like there was any way out other than getting better at dieting. ⠀ ⠀ We told ourselves that we just needed more willpower, more discipline (which, of course, never actually panned out).⠀ ⠀ It wasn’t until we learned about weight set point that things really started to shift in a positive direction. Understanding that we each have a built-in weight regulation mechanism that works exactly as it should unless we mess with it, was a major light bulb moment. ⠀ ⠀ We'd been messing with ours for about 20 years.⠀ ⠀ So at that point, we could either continue dieting, beating ourselves up every time we failed/binged and get nowhere, no matter how hard we tried. Or we could just chill with the damn meal plans and let our bodies do their thing, trusting that our weight would land in its most natural, healthiest place. ⠀ ⠀ Kind of a no brainer. And yet many women continue to battle their bodies day in and day out, without ever seeing the outcome they want.⠀ ⠀ If you’ve never heard of weight set point, or perhaps you have but don’t know what to do with it, don’t miss this week’s podcast lesson. We’re diving into this important concept, the one that changed everything for us personally, and turned out to be our gateway into a healthier, happier relationship with food and body. ⠀ ⠀ We believe it can do the same for you.⠀ ⠀ Link in bio to tune in. ⠀
