If Oprah Winfrey, with all her success, still feels broken by societal expectations of weight and beauty, what does that mean for the rest of us? On this episode, I challenge common narratives about obesity, Ozempic, and self-worth, offering a different perspective that I hope Oprah will hear.I’m talking about Oprah's recent comments about the obesity gene and her struggles with body image. Oprah, who’s been at the forefront of many conversations on weight loss and health, has recently gone viral for sharing her belief that genetics is to blame for obesity. I have a different perspective on this issue, one that opposes decades of societal conditioning and the idea that our worth is tied to the number on a scale. Together, let's explore how this message impacts every woman, including Oprah, and how we can reframe our approach to health, food, and self-love.Conclusion:It’s time to embrace the self-love and worth that we all deserve. Forget chasing numbers on a scale. Focus on the healthiest, most balanced version of yourself, inside and out. We have to stop the cycle of shame based on weight and start honoring our true value.In This Episode:- Introduction & Oprah's viral statement on obesity- The corset of cultural conditioning- Obesity gene and medical misconceptions- Food noise and its true source- Oprah's public shaming because of weight- A new message and legacy for Oprah- Embracing self-worth and your healthiest versionMentioned in the Episode:-Oprah’s First Video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTgHAaxEcD_/?igsh=MzMyYmZpOTV0Z2c4 -Oprah’s Second Video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTgJgRpiec8/?igsh=MWprbmxkajBzdzh2dA%3D%3DJoin the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown!-Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrownListen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel:-Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016-Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f-Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1Connect with Carrie Lupoli:Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepageInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blogOther Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

The new food pyramid is getting a lot of attention, and with all the hype, it’s clear there’s more to it than just a graphic. In today’s episode, I’m exposing the truth behind these guidelines, why they changed, what’s missing, and how to approach health choices free from bias or confusion.I’ll explore why it’s important to view this new pyramid through a lens of clarity rather than emotion, and how understanding your body, behavior, and beliefs is crucial to achieving real health rather than just following rules.I’m also offering my personal perspective on the pyramid’s strengths and weaknesses, and a new, balanced outlook on nutrition to help you serve your body and soul well.Conclusion:The new food pyramid may be controversial, but it offers a clearer path to understanding how to nourish your body with whole foods.

Every January starts with renewed hope, new meal plans, and gym subscriptions, but somehow ends in frustration, guilt, and the feeling that you are the problem. Don’t believe that feeling. In today’s episode, I’m unpacking why New Year’s resolutions and diets fail at such staggering rates and why it has nothing to do with willpower or discipline.I walk you through what’s really happening inside your brain when you try to make big changes all at once, and why “self-sabotage” is actually self-preservation. We talk about why restriction always leads to rebellion, why perfection guarantees burnout, and why weight loss can’t be the goal if you truly want sustainable health.Plus, I introduce the concept of the 1% shift. This is how you stop starting over, build trust with your body, and finally create a lifestyle that lasts without rules, extremes, or falling off a wagon that never existed in the first place.ConclusionYou are not broken. You don’t need more willpower. You need a different approach. When you stop trying to change everything at once and start building trust with your body, consistency becomes possible. Let this be the year you stop starting over and finally build something that lasts.In This Episode:- Why New Year's resolutions and diets fail- Building a healthy relationship with your body- How the brain responds to change- The power of small changes and a strong why- Morning routine for successful behavior changeMentioned in the Episode:-Carrie’s morning time guide: https://www.carrielupoli.com/morning-Carrie’s Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown!-Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrownListen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel:-Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016-Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f-Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1Connect with Carrie Lupoli:Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepageInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blogOther Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

The FDA has just removed the black box warning from hormone replacement therapies, a huge win for women’s health! In today’s episode, Dr. Sarah Daccarett, a leading hormone expert, and I break down why this is such a monumental shift and what it means for your hormone health. This label, which has scared many women away from HRT for decades, suggested serious risks like heart disease, cancer, and dementia. Now, with updated research, the truth is coming to light, and women can make empowered, informed decisions about their hormone health without fear or confusion. We explore the science behind this shift, how it will impact women in midlife, and why it’s so important to prioritize hormone health before menopause hits. If you’ve ever felt uncertain or overwhelmed by the world of HRT, this episode will help clear up the confusion and give you the confidence to make the best decision for your body.Conclusion:With the removal of the black box warning, we’re one step closer to empowering women to take control of their health, especially as they approach menopause. Remember, knowledge is power.

You don’t need a new diet or exercise program for better health. You need a complete reset of how you live, think, and care for yourself. The reset requires consistency, which has little to do with doing the same thing daily without fail. It is all about being adaptable and responsive to what your body and mind need in the moment.Courtney Townley, the author of The Consistency Code,  joins me today to redefine consistency for midlife women. What I love about Courtney’s perspective is how deeply it aligns with what we teach here: that health is not a look, a number, or a size. It’s the foundation that helps you pursue the real purpose you were put on this earth for. We explore the truth about stress, why women are carrying more emotional and mental load than ever before, and how to begin honoring your needs in a consistent, compassionate way—without perfection, punishment, or hustle. Courtney also breaks down her powerful four-part consistency framework and shares the broken mindset keeping so many women stuck. Conclusion:Your health is not a destination. It’s a direction that requires consistency. And when you redefine consistency as self-honoring rather than self-punishment, everything shifts. Start with one small aligned choice today, build awareness around what you truly need, and give yourself permission to grow, expand, and evolve without perfection.In This Episode:- The inspiration behind “The Consistency Code”- Why health is not about appearance- Necessary versus unnecessary stress- What is the consistency code?- How to organize your life for consistency- Creating power moves to honor yourself- Building emotional agility and a follow-through planBooks Mentioned in the Episode:-The Consistency Code by Courtney Townley: https://graceandgrit.com/book/the-consistency-code/ -The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter: https://a.co/d/32qbRGfJoin the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown!-Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrownListen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel:-Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016-Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1Connect with Courtney Townley:Website: https://graceandgrit.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gracegrit/Connect with Carrie Lupoli:Website –

Do you feel stuck in a cycle of counting calories, restricting food, and still not seeing the results you want? You're not alone.
