    30 Lessons I Learned Before 30 (I turn 30 Today!)

    Today is my 30th birthday. Ahhh!!! And after a month away from the podcast, which hasn't happened since I started it, this felt like the right episode to come back with. My 20s were challenging and beautiful and full. Living in Italy, living in France, the pandemic, building a business, falling in love, moving between friend groups, failing A LOT growing A LOT. I am SO proud of my 20s. And I am even more excited for what comes next. In this episode, I'm sharing 30 things I figured out before 30. Some are big life lessons, some are embarrassingly simple, and a few go deep into the stuff I talk about every week: nervous systems, healing patterns, why you can't think your way into change, and why your relationship with food and your body might just be your Mount Everest and what to do about it. This one is a good one to listen to on a walk. Bring a journal if you want to. And if something lands, come tell me over on Instagram.  ✦Get first access to my brand new free mini- course: Decode Your Food Noise → sabrinamagnan.com/decode-podcast 📲 Come hang out over on instagram →  @sabrina.magnan.health 🤝 Ready to get support in healing your relationship with food and your body?

    The "Wellness Trap" : How To Avoid The Dark Side of Wellness Culture w/ Christy Harrison, RD

    Have you ever found yourself spiraling down the "wellness" rabbit hole? One week you’re told your bloating is from gluten. The next it’s dairy. Then suddenly you’re on your 5th elimination diet, $300 deep in supplements, and still feeling exhausted, anxious, and confused. I know that trap because I lived it. And so did my guest today - Christy Harrison. Christy is a registered dietitian, journalist, host of Rethinking Wellness, and author of the books Anti-Diet and The Wellness Trap. She has spent years pulling back the curtain on how wellness culture often isn’t the solution, it’s just diet culture with green juice and lab tests. In this episode, Christy and I get real about:  ✨ The sneaky overlap between diet culture and wellness culture (and how both make you feel like you’re the problem)  ✨ The “care effect” & why just being heard can make you feel better, even when the treatment itself doesn’t work  ✨ Common wellness buzzwords (root cause, adrenal fatigue, candida) and what they actually mean  ✨ Why we fall for restrictive diets & wellness protocols even when they make us sicker  ✨ How to tell if your pursuit of “healing” is quietly stealing your joy, money, and freedom  ✨ The difference between wellness and true well-being - and how to move toward the latter This isn’t about shaming anyone who’s tried alternative medicine, elimination diets, or supplements. It’s about giving you the clarity, context, and compassion you need to protect yourself from getting stuck in another endless cycle of “fixing.” Christy’s work has helped thousands of people untangle from both diet culture and wellness culture , and after this conversation, you’ll have a new lens for spotting when health advice is helping… or harming. 📚 Resources Mentioned: Substack: https://rethinkingwellness.substack.com/Website: christyharrison.comBook | Anti-Diet:  ChristyharrisonAnti-Diet BookBook | The Wellness Trap: ChristyharrisonThe Wellness Trap Book ✦Get first access to my brand new free mini- course: Decode Your Food Noise → sabrinamagnan.com/decode-podcast 📲 Come hang out over on instagram →  @sabrina.magnan.health 🤝 Ready to get support in healing your relationship with food and your body?

    How To Stop Hating Your Body

    Affirmations aren't going to fix the fact that you haven’t felt safe or comfortable in your body for decades. Neither is journaling. And neither will knowing, intellectually, that your body is the least interesting thing about you. Because body hatred doesn't live as a thought. It lives in your nervous system. It's a survival program, wired in at some point that linked your size, your weight, your appearance, to your safety. And you cannot think your way out of a program that lives in your body. In this episode, I'm breaking down why everything you've tried hasn't worked (and it's not because you didn't try hard enough), what hating your body is actually doing for your nervous system, why you can want to lose weight and still do this work, and the three-step process for rewiring body hatred at the level where it actually lives. The goal isn't to love your body. It's to stop linking worth/safety/confidence to something that will inevitably fluctuate throughout your life. ✦Get first access to my brand new free mini- course: Decode Your Food Noise → sabrinamagnan.com/decode-podcast 📲 Come hang out over on instagram →  @sabrina.magnan.health 🤝 Ready to get support in healing your relationship with food and your body?

    The Real Reason You Feel the Need to Control Everything About Food (The Nervous System Series, Ep. 5)

    You don't have a control problem. You have a nervous system that found control through food.  Episode 5 of the Nervous System Series is about the real reason behind the compulsion to track, restrict, and micromanage everything around food, including my own story of moving to university at 18, my nervous system hitting DEEP dysregulation,  and realizing years later that what I thought was my personality was actually a strategy. A really effective, really painful, really exhausting strategy. We go into why the brain keeps filing "control food = feel safer" even when you knowwww it's not logical, the loop where external control creates more dysregulation over time, why this bleeds into your to-do lists and your relationships and everywhere else, and what it actually means to rewire at the root rather than just get better at managing it. You've wanted to let go for a long time. This episode is about why you haven't been able to, and what actually has to change. ✦Get first access to my brand new free mini- course: Decode Your Food Noise → sabrinamagnan.com/decode-podcast 📲 Come hang out over on instagram →  @sabrina.magnan.health 🤝 Ready to get support in healing your relationship with food and your body?

    Why "Just Listen to Your Body" Isn't Working For You (The Nervous System Series, Ep.4)

    You've tried to "just listen to your body." And it either feels like silence, or static, or something comes through that feels way too scary or confusing to stay with. And then you wonder what is wrong with you, because this is supposed to be natural. Nothing is wrong with you. But there are three very specific reasons why this feels impossible, and this episode breaks all of them down. In Episode 4 of the Nervous System Series, we go into why survival mode literally turns off your body's signals, what years of overriding your hunger actually trained your brain to do, and why tuning inward can feel actively scary when your body is holding unprocessed emotions. We also cover the comfort zone, growth zone, panic zone framework, and why trying to do too much too fast always sends you straight back to where you started. Intuitive eating is the destination. But there's a step that has to come first. This episode is about that step. ✦Get first access to my brand new free mini- course: Decode Your Food Noise → sabrinamagnan.com/decode-podcast 📲 Come hang out over on instagram →  @sabrina.magnan.health 🤝 Ready to get support in healing your relationship with food and your body?
