The anti-diet movement arose as a crucial response to harmful diet culture—but has the pendulum swung too far? In this episode, we explore the complexities of navigating weight, health, and body autonomy in an increasingly polarized landscape. From privilege in intuitive eating spaces to the impact of new weight loss medications, we're diving into the uncomfortable questions many practitioners are afraid to ask. Join us as we search for nuance in the space between diet culture and anti-diet dogma.

In this episode, we walk through what the body's response to stress is, why and how we've actually become addicted to stress, and how to get out of that addiction.
We get a little woo-woo in here but I want you to stick with me. Open your mind to what's possible and experience the possibility of another way to live.
In this episode of Well Intentions we focus in on how our inner thoughts and emotions can and do influence the body's ability to heal. From chakras, energy centers, meditation and manifestation, we can harness the power of our minds to create new internal emotions that can cause the body to heal.
