Ever been targeted by a sponsored post on social media that made you question the motivations behind it and how it influences your beliefs and behaviors?

 I recently had that experience, and it led to a fascinating discussion about the manipulative tactics used by diet culture and the impact they have on our well-being. In this eye-opening episode, we explore the relationship between our exposure to certain messages and the beliefs we develop from a young age, especially when it comes to diet and weight loss.

We also dive into the red flags to look out for in wellness content and how our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors can become intertwined when it comes to overeating. You'll discover that it's not about willpower or discipline, but rather a thought process of guilt and shame that can drive us to certain behaviors.

Gain insights on what to watch for when exposed to different accounts, social media, and ads that can lead to negative beliefs and internalize our own well-being.

Finally, learn what happens when we start to engage in behaviors and beliefs that make us feel empowered, and how our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions can become intertwined and impact our behavior in powerful ways. Uncover the dangers of falling into diet culture's marketing tactics and the importance of being mindful of the people and platforms that we expose ourselves to on a daily basis. By the end of this episode, you'll be better equipped to protect yourself from the shame and guilt perpetuated by diet culture, and take control of your own well-being.

So, tune in and join the conversation!
