Ever catch yourself diving headfirst into the latest diet trend one minute, then eating all the goodies the next? Yup, me too! If you’ve ever questioned health advice, felt pressure to look a certain way, or struggled with self-kindness, this episode is for you!

Today, I’m sitting down with the fabulous Rachel Goodman—a registered dietitian, body image expert, and all-around truth-teller—to unpack the mixed messages we receive about health, weight, and self-worth.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

🧐 How to critically evaluate health & diet trends – Stop falling for misleading nutrition advice.

📺 Why media pushes appearance = self-worth – The impact of social conditioning on body image.

💖 The power of self-compassion – Why being kind to yourself is essential, not just a cliché.

🔄 How cultural messages shape our beliefs – Unlearning toxic dieting scripts & embracing real health.

🚀 Actionable strategies to rebuild a healthier body image – Practical steps to feel confident & free in your body.

Rachel’s insights hit home, and she brings a powerful mix of expertise and real talk to help you redefine your relationship with food and your body.

If you’re ready to rethink, relearn, and challenge societal scripts, this episode is a must-listen!

xoxo,

Jackie
