Grace and I discuss how navigating chronic body symptoms and chronic illness can negatively impact on our body image. And how easily this can spiral in dieting, disordered eating or an eating disorder.

She shares some support and tips for how to improve body image for those navigating a chronic condition.

S2 E7. A non-diet approach to health during midlife and menopause with Sherry Pratt
Today Sherry and I discuss the challenges many women face while navigating midlife and menopause while living in a diet culture. From navigating emotions, weight changes, life changes and our society's erasure of aging women, there can be a lot to process and accept which can for some lead us toward dieting as a way to try control a changing internal and external world. Sherry shares some non-diet support and tips for those approaching or navigating this time of life.
About Sherry Pratt Sherry is a certified coach and trained intuitive eating counselor. She left an accomplished and successful 25 year career as an IT professional and corporate executive to start her own health coaching business. Her passion is helping women in midlife break free from yo-yo dieting and live comfortably in their bodies without feeling like they're giving up on themselves or their health. When she's not helping women reach their health goals, you can find her parenting her 2 teenage sons, behind the wheel of a tractor helping her husband out on their grain farm, tending her rather large vegetable garden, staying active playing pickleball and curling within her local community or relaxing with a glass of wine and a good book.

Binge eating is very common, although if we are struggling with out-of-control eating, it might not feel like it. It is a topic we don't talk about much in our culture.
Toni and I are here to change that and take the shame and stigma out of binge eating. We explore:
- What binge eating is
- Why we might develop binge eating
- What we can do to start feeling good around food

S2 E5. Why mind-body connection is so important for intuitive eating
Dieting tells you your body cannot be trusted. It tells you your body is wrong and it's normal to feel in a fight between body and mind.
This is not true and we can feel at peace with food while supporting our bodies to feel their best. The key is having a strong mind-body connection.
We will cover:
- what mind-body connection is
- what it can tell us (and why this is important)
- how you can improve your mind-body connection

S1 E8. What does it mean to be healthy?
Today, we are exploring what it really means to be “healthy”? Is health a personal responsibility? And how much impact does diet and exercise really have on our health? By understanding what makes you feel healthy, rather than what our culture says should be healthy, you can prioritise the areas of your health and wellbeing that really matter to you.
This episode is an exploration, from my own personal perspective looking into the current research and knowledge we have of what it really means to be healthy and how this differs from our common cultural perceptions of health. Of course, your thoughts about health may differ from mine and that is ok.

S1 E3. Non diet approach for PCOS with Cordula Henggeler
Today I am joined Registered Dietitian and PCOS expert Cordula Henggler. Cordula shares her knowledge and helpful advice about how you can support your body to manage PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) symptoms without diets and food restriction.
PCOS is a health condition heavily impacted by dieting and weight loss advice. But, as we discuss, this advice is rarely helpful and can cause a lot of harm to relationship with food and management of PCOS symptoms. There are many non-diet food and lifestyle changes that can help manage PCOS symptoms and support a healthy relationship with food and body.
...
Cordula is an experienced UK registered dietitian with a master's degree in nutrition. She specialises in PCOS, endometriosis, fertility and gut health. Her passion for hormonal health and the female body system comes from her own struggles with PCOS, IBS and a thyroid condition and the very limited support she received through the public health system.
She experienced first-hand how nutrition and lifestyle changes can impact our health and well-being and Cordula combines her personal experiences with her years of professional expertise to provide support to all those struggling with PCOS or endometriosis to feel comfortable in their bodies. She focuses on evidence-based nutrition solutions that go beyond quick fixes and restrictive diets.
Cordula is also passionate about inclusive care that is not stigmatising and not weight focused to ensure that the individual receives the support they deserve.
If you wonder where the accent is from, Cordula is originally from Switzerland, but left her home when she was 18 and since then has lived in the UK and then New Zealand where she also trained to become a dietitian before moving back to the UK in 2018.
