Description

Were you raised on Special K diets, low-fat yoghurts, and the belief that being thin was your ticket to happiness? 😩
This one’s for the women who inherited a broken food relationship from the media, our mothers, and an era that praised restriction and punished appetite.

In this episode, we unpack:

  • The toxic messages of 90s & 2000s diet culture

  • How these beliefs still shape our behaviour around food today

  • Why it’s so hard to change — and how to start healing, one mindset shift at a time

It’s time to stop blaming yourself for struggling — and start unpacking the programming you never asked for.
This one’s honest, emotional, and long overdue. 💛

🎧 Listen now and let me know what landed with you.
Feeling ready to work on your food relationship and your health goals — without shame or obsession?
