Tired of Feeling "Broken" by Diet Advice? This Episode is Your Antidote.

Ever sat in a doctor's office or with a nutritionist, armed with lists of "good" foods, calorie counts, and exercise plans, only to leave feeling more like a failed science experiment than a human being? In this incredibly raw and personal episode, the host shares a powerful dedication from his book, "Food is Fuel." He doesn't hold back, calling out the experts who filled his head with facts but never once asked how he felt, never reassured him he wasn't a failure, and never truly understood the why behind his relationship with food. If you've ever been told you just need more "willpower," or if you've felt like a faulty machine because diets don't work for you, this is a must-listen. Discover why: Your struggles aren't about a lack of discipline. You are NOT broken, and you are not a failure.

True understanding of our food journey goes far beyond carbs and calories – it dives into our complex histories, emotions, and needs. Tune in for a refreshingly honest perspective that challenges the status quo and offers a message of profound hope and understanding. It's time to stop blaming yourself and start a new conversation about food. You might just find the validation you've been searching for.
