Sami and Aleen are back for the final episode of Dear DST of 2021. We kick off by sharing our Non-Scale Wins and then dig into listeners' emails, which focus on the importance of getting a second medical opinion and how to set little goals for yourself to avoid doom scrolling on social media. Let’s continue to be the best version of ourselves in the new year and take these WTF moments and turn them into taking control of our problems.
This week we’re joined by Dr. Sandra Gelbard, a board certified internal medicine physician, who previously served as the Chief Medical Officer of the Endometriosis Foundation of America. Dr. Gelbard gives us an extensive overview of endometriosis, clears up some misconceptions and gives us tips on how to best support loved ones who may be experiencing it themselves. You can read more in Vogue about Dr. Gelbard's approach to treating endometriosis and how she's helped many women including Lena Dunham to make tough medical decisions.
Sami and Aleen are back for this week’s Dear DST episode with author and ex-dieter Caroline Dooner. They kick off the episode by sharing their Non-Scale Wins and then dig into some intense listener emails.

They give tips for how to turn wtf situations into learning moments, and handling awkward situations moving forward.
On this week’s Back For Seconds, Sami and Aleen are here to answer all of your unfiltered questions. Nothing is off limits as they answered questions that have never been discussed on the podcast before: from what they’d change about the past, to which topics they’d choose for their own TED Talk.
Sami and Aleen are re-joined by author of The F*CK It Diet and returning DST guest, Caroline Dooner, to talk about that all-too-familiar topic: burnout. They catch up on everything Caroline’s been up to since she was last on the show. Then they talk about her new book, TIRED AS F*CK, and discuss the best ways to avoid burnout, both at home and at work. (Is there even a difference anymore?) Caroline also shares some tips on how to say no to the things that don’t bring joy to our lives.
Today for Dear DST Sami and Aleen are back together! They chat about Aleen’s first few months of motherhood, Sami shares more details on her embryo freezing process, and they read a listener non-scale-win about giving yourself grace during the winter months of the year. It’s too f*cking cold to move anyway. Then they respond to a listener email about telling people the real reason you’ve lost weight (illness) and communicating that their unwanted compliments are actually… well, unwanted.
