Have you ever been at a party, a work lunch, or a family gathering and realized there’s nothing you can eat? 

Everyone else is digging in, and you’re trying to smile through it while feeling left out or awkward. I’ve been there more times than I can count, and it can really sting. In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to handle those moments when being gluten-free feels isolating — how to prepare ahead, what to say, and how to take care of your emotions when food becomes a dividing line. 

Stick around until the end, because I’ll share the simple mindset shift that helped me stop feeling excluded and start feeling empowered.
