A decade ago I was in the *thick* of things with my binge eating & dieting struggles. It felt like I was pushing a boulder up a mountain that had no peak, and the boulder kept slipping, and getting bigger and bigger, and harder to push, as I went. It was exhausting.  I was so tired of trying to eat so "good" and “healthy," only to end up eating everything in the pantry until I felt sick to my stomach.    Knowing what I know now, there are SO many things that I wish I could go back and tell that younger version of myself.

How long have you been waiting to feel your best? Do you feel like you have to change your body FIRST before you can feel or be healthy?  This week a client of mine said to me, “I’m taking actions to feel healthy now and am no longer waiting to lose 20 lbs first.” And this shift made her feel so much more empowered than being stuck in the narrative of, “I just need to wait until my body is smaller, then I can do the things in alignment to how I want to live my life.” And I want to chat with you about it!  In this episode, we chat about:  Why it makes sense to feel like you have to ‘wait for weight loss’ to take action The messages diet culture makes us believe  How you can actually feel healthy, happy, confident, etc. before (even without) losing weight Some real life examples of how one of my clients is making these shifts The question I want you to ask yourself  Links: ⭐ Apply for 1:1 private coaching here 💗 Details about how to work with me & get food freedom support – Currently accepting new 1:1 coaching clients!  🍪 Take the Free ‘Why Do You Binge Eat’ Quiz  📱 Connect with Jenn on Instagram (@the.intuitive.nutritionist) 🎧 Podcast Show Notes If you’re enjoying the Intuitively You Podcast, please be sure to leave a rating or review!

Do you feel like you’re only worthy of doing certain things if you eat “well”? Or do you feel like you’re only deserving of rest if you’ve already done a certain type of workout? OR do you feel like can’t embody or have confidence until your body is smaller, different, or more toned? If you said yes to any of the above (or if you’re thinking “I’ve never thought of that, maybe!”) then chances are you may be tying your self-worth to food & your body. This is something that many of my clients (and my past self included) struggle with. It’s what diet culture and society at large teach us to think like – you need to “prove” your worthiness by eating “good,” exercising “the right way,” or having your body look a certain way.  That ends here. It’s time to remember that you’re inherently worthy of all the things that you desire, no changes required.  In this episode, we chat about:  What self-worth is, and what it means to me Why we tie our self worth to food & our bodies  The inherent worthiness we all have  How to untangle your self worth from food or your body  5 steps to shift your limiting beliefs  Self image and how it’s related to self worth  Links: 💗 Work with me & get food freedom support 🍪 Take the Free ‘Why Do You Binge Eat’ Quiz  📱 Connect with Jenn on Instagram (@the.intuitive.nutritionist) 🎧 Podcast Show Notes If you’re enjoying the Intuitively You Podcast, please be sure to leave a rating or review!
