    15. The Difference Between Managing PCOS and Healing Your Relationship With Food

    If you have PCOS and feel like you’re doing everything you were told to do, eating “clean,” being consistent, following the rules, but still feel exhausted, anxious around food, or stuck in constant food noise, this episode is for you. In today’s episode, we’re talking about the difference between managing PCOS and actually healing your relationship with food. Most women are taught how to control symptoms, but not how to support their bodies in a way that feels safe, sustainable, and flexible long term. When fear-based nutrition and restriction are layered on top of PCOS physiology, symptoms often get louder, not better. I walk through why this happens, how under-eating and food rules can backfire hormonally, and what it really means to nourish your body with PCOS instead of fighting it. We also talk about how healing your relationship with food doesn’t mean ignoring nutrition or structure, it means building an approach that supports hormones and mental health. This episode is for anyone who wants to manage PCOS without obsession, loosen the grip food has on their thoughts, and finally feel more confident trusting their body again. This is the exact approach I teach inside PCOS Thrive Academy, where we combine evidence-based PCOS education with food freedom and personalized support, without diet culture.

    13. Why Telling Women With PCOS to "Eat Less" Is Making Things Worse

    For many women with PCOS, nutrition advice sounds like: eat less, cut carbs, and try harder. But what happens when following that advice leads to food guilt, obsession, restriction, and worsened symptoms? In this episode, Brooklyn dives into the often-overlooked connection between disordered eating and PCOS, inspired by a real client story that highlights a much larger issue in PCOS care. You’ll learn why weight-focused recommendations are so common, how chronic restriction impacts hormones and metabolism, and why eating more, not less, is often the missing piece for PCOS management. This conversation is for anyone who has felt confused, blamed, or discouraged after doing “everything right” and still not seeing results. Why women with PCOS are 2–3x more likely to struggle with disordered eatingHow calorie restriction and carb fear fuel food obsession and binge-restrict cycles The role of stress hormones and under-fueling in worsening PCOS symptoms Why weight loss is not required for improvements in insulin resistance or hormone balance How eating more consistently can actually support blood sugar and metabolism Why healing your relationship with food is a core part of PCOS care, not an afterthought What to focus on adding to meals and snacks instead of what to cut out You didn’t fail PCOS management.PCOS management often fails women by ignoring biology, stress, and mental health. The solution isn’t more control or less food, it’s more nourishment, consistency, and compassion. If this episode resonated with you and you’re ready to manage your PCOS without restriction, guilt, or food rules, Brooklyn supports women inside PCOS Thrive Academy, a program focused on fueling your body, balancing hormones, and healing your relationship with food at the same time. 👉 Apply here: https://form.typeform.com/to/iKnpNXF5 If this episode hit home, share it with a friend or leave a review, it helps more women find this message!!
