Similar to religion, we see people backing their diet of choice as 'the best' or 'the only true diet' that everyone else should adopt while ignoring all the potential pitfalls or deficiencies that may arise from it.

HAES, IE, mindful eating, informed eating. These are all alternatives to a traditional 'diet' and through this episode, we aim to improve the dialogue around these alternatives.
Traditional diet strategies are commonly discussed as the only options to create change, but this is a fresh take on things. In this episode with 2 guests, Dr Gabby Fundaro and Flex Success Coach Shannon Beer, we dive into HAES, IE (intuitive eating) and mindful eating. We discussed their benefits and when these may be a more appropriate approach than traditional strategies, and the common misconceptions surrounding them.
