Beyond the Plate: Food, Fear, and the Stories We Tell Ourselves
Description
In this continued conversation, Sam and Madi dive even deeper into the emotional and practical realities of managing food, nutrition, and language around chronic illness. Building on their previous episode, they discuss why the way we talk about food and our bodies can shape not just perception, but experience.
Together, they unpack the fear that often surrounds eating, especially when every bite feels like a gamble. From self-advocacy and understanding dietary tolerances to the role of mindfulness and support systems, this episode emphasizes the importance of individualized care, nutrition education, and compassionate communication in gastrointestinal health.
Whether you're struggling to find balance in your diet, feeling isolated in your food fears, or just need to hear from someone who gets it, this conversation is a reminder that you're not alone and that there’s power in continuing to ask questions, speak up, and find what works for you.
