You do not need to eat perfectly to be healthy, and one snack will not undo you.I just spent five months living out of a quarter of a fridge. Coming home to my own pantry nearly knocked me over.Eight garbage bags later, I finally understood what gentle nutrition actually is, and what it is not.This classic episode breaks down Evelyn Tribole's definition of gentle nutrition, why intuitive eating is a process and not an endpoint, and why food and exercise only account for 15% of your health.What you'll learn:What gentle nutrition actually means, straight from the woman who coined the termWhy wellness culture sells the same fraud as diet culture, just with a healthier labelThe real reason obsessing over nutrition rarely makes you healthierHow to tell the difference between gentle nutrition and healthismWhy intuitive eating is a process, and gentle nutrition is where it leadsMentioned in the show:Confident - Join the waitlist: https://stephaniedodier.com/confident

Everyone is making less money right now, and almost nobody is saying it out loud.Hilary Kinavey has been doing weight-neutral work for twenty-five years. Right now, she is making less money. So am I.In this conversation we name the shame underneath that, and the grief of watching the anti-diet movement lose ground to GLP-1 marketing.Then we get practical.

Most women who call themselves a binge eater are just eating normally after years of restricting.Dr. Sarah Cooke was an NHS doctor for twelve years before a Crohn's diagnosis sent her down a completely different path.Now she works exclusively with women untangling binge eating, emotional eating, and the belief that they have no off switch with food.In this conversation we get specific about what actually separates binge eating from overeating from normal eating, why the “no off switch” feeling almost always traces back to restriction, and what the emerging research on GLP-1 for binge eating is actually showing.What you'll learn:The real difference between binge eating, overeating, and normal eatingWhere the “no off switch” feeling actually comes fromWhy food noise is so hard to research, and what it actually isSarah's clinical take on GLP-1 medications for binge eating specificallyHow to tell if occasional emotional eating is a problem or just being humanMentioned in the show: Thursday Sessions- Free training (Until Sept 2, 2026) - https://program.stephaniedodier.com/thursday-sessionsNDCC - Registration - https://stephaniedodier.com/non-diet-coaching-certification/Free Intake assessment Forms - https://stephaniedodier.com/clientassessmentBeyond GLP-1 series - https://program.stephaniedodier.com/beyond-glp-1Connect with our guest:Dr. Sarah Cooke's Instagram: instagram.com/drscnutritionDr. Sarah Cooke's Facebook: facebook.com/drscnutritionDr. Sarah Cooke's Free 7-Step Guide: sarahcookenutrition.lpages.co/entry-offer-lead-magnet-7-steps-registration-pageDr. Sarah Cooke's Podcast: When Food Feels Hard: https://open.spotify.com/show/66AUrj0RUROUykrwOKPQD9

You can look at another woman's body and see nothing but beauty. Look at your own, and the story changes completely.That gap has a name and a research base behind it. In this episode I teach the psychology of body acceptance in two parts: why the gap exists, and what actually moves you through it once you're ready to close it.What you'll learn:The psychological theory that explains why women learn to see their bodies as objects before they see themselves as peopleWhy body positivity keeps women in the same trap as body hatred, and what body neutrality does differentlyThe real reason resistance shows up once you've decided to change your relationship to your bodyA three-step process, compassionate self-leadership, internal safety, and self-consent, to build the self-trust that makes lasting change possibleMentioned in the show: Thursday Sessions- Free training (Until Sept 2, 2026) - https://program.stephaniedodier.com/thursday-sessionsNDCC - Registration - https://stephaniedodier.com/non-diet-coaching-certification/Free Intake assessment Forms - https://stephaniedodier.com/clientassessmentBeyond GLP-1 series - https://program.stephaniedodier.com/beyond-glp-1

GLP-1 clients are already in your practice. The question is whether you have a clinical framework for what comes next. After the Beyond GLP-1 series and months of supervision conversations with my mentoring students, I compiled the list that keeps getting longer: 15 clinical considerations every non-diet practitioner needs when working with clients who are on GLP-1, thinking about it, or coming off it. This is not a position statement. It is a framework built from what I am seeing in the field right now. What you will learn:How GLP-1 disrupts hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues — and how to coach each oneWhy the food noise that goes quiet on GLP-1 comes back with a vengeance when the medication stopsWhy body image work is non-negotiable and why I am predicting a body image crisis in 2027The bridge analogy and the one coaching question that opens everythingWhy group coaching is the wrong container for this workWhat post-GLP-1 coaching actually looks like, including the first six weeksMy answer to the episode question: yes, butMentioned in the show: Thursday Sessions- Free training (Until Sept 2, 2026) - https://program.stephaniedodier.com/thursday-sessionsNDCC - Registration - https://stephaniedodier.com/non-diet-coaching-certification/Free Intake assessment Forms - https://stephaniedodier.com/clientassessmentBeyond GLP-1 series - https://program.stephaniedodier.com/beyond-glp-1

Confidence is not a personality trait you either have or don't.That is the conversation in this episode. Denise Wogan, a psychotherapist and Non-Diet Coaching Certification graduate, joins me four years after we worked together on the exact thing she was too scared to build: her own business.She has since done her first national TV interview, finished a psychotherapy degree, and started building a bricks and mortar clinic in Ireland.

Right as weight-inclusive medicine started gaining real ground, GLP-1 walked in and put BMI back at the center of the conversation.Dr. Lesley Williams has spent the last several years practicing weight-inclusive medicine inside a system built around this class of drugs.She is not on a side. She is in the room, every day, holding both a weight-neutral framework and a patient who wants a prescription.This conversation goes into what that actually looks like in practice.What you'll learnWhy the rise of GLP-1 felt like a step backwards for weight-inclusive medicine, even to a practitioner who believes in itThe shared decision-making framework she uses before ever discussing medicationWhy rapport has to outrank advocacy if a practitioner wants to stay in the room long termWhat she is already seeing: early adopters starting to come off the medicationWhere she believes weight-inclusive care is headed over the next five to ten yearsMentioned in the show:Beyond GLP-1 Expert Podcast Series: https://program.stephaniedodier.com/beyond-glp-1Dr. Lesley Williams website: http://www.lesleywilliamsmd.comDr. Lesley on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DrLesleyW/Coach Corner Vault: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/coach-corner/Non-Diet Client Assessment Tool: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/clientassessmentNon-Diet Coaching Certification Waitlist: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/non-diet-coaching-certification/Groundwork: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/groundwork
