    374 // Diet Culture Rules I Had to Unlearn Before I Could Trust Myself Around Food

    In this episode of the Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast, Nutrition Coach Nicole Hagen shares the specific diet-culture beliefs she had to unlearn in order to build a healthier relationship with food and pursue sustainable fat loss without obsession. Nicole walks through the first step of her Rewrite coaching framework and explains how old beliefs about hunger, exercise, the scale, “good” and “bad” foods, and perfection can continue driving your behavior even after you’ve stopped actively dieting. In this episode, you’ll learn: How diet-culture beliefs can affect weight loss and maintenance Why hunger, scale fluctuations, and missed workouts can trigger old patterns How all-or-nothing thinking keeps women stuck in the restrict–restart cycle Why losing weight doesn’t automatically improve your relationship with food How to identify the thoughts and rules underneath your eating behaviors If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, so why can’t I stay consistent?” this episode will help you identify the food rules and patterns that may be making fat loss harder than it needs to be.

    373 // “I Deserve This”: What Emotional Eating Is Actually Trying to Tell You

    In this episode of the Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast, host and Nutrition Coach Nicole Hagen talks about emotional eating - specifically the moments when food starts to feel like comfort, reward, relief, or the one thing you “deserve” after a long day. Throughout this episode, you’ll learn: Why “I deserve this” is often about more than the food itself How stress, depletion, and emotional needs can make highly rewarding foods feel especially compelling The difference between using food for comfort sometimes and relying on food as your default coping strategy Why under-eating earlier in the day can make emotional eating harder to untangle Why more restriction and tighter food rules often miss the real problem How coaching support can help you slow the pattern down, understand what’s driving it, and practice a different response If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “I know what I should do, so why do I keep doing X?” this episode will help you look at emotional eating with curiosity (not shame) so you can understand the pattern instead of just trying to control it harder.

    369 // How to Lose Body Fat Without Reliving 2003 Diet Culture

    In this episode, Nicole talks about why today’s body and weight-loss landscape feels eerily familiar to Millennial women who grew up in 90s and early-2000s diet culture; and why old beliefs about food, weight, discipline, and thinness can start feeling louder when everyone around you suddenly seems to be getting smaller. Nicole breaks down how you can be “done with dieting” and still mentally follow the rules you learned from Weight Watchers, Atkins, SlimFast, The Biggest Loser, and the rest of the diet culture that raised us. She also explores the important difference between wanting to lose body fat and feeling like you need to become as small as possible to be successful, disciplined, or worthy. Throughout this episode you’ll learn what sustainable, health-promoting fat loss can look like; including creating a manageable calorie deficit, protecting muscle and strength, eating enough to support your body, maintaining flexibility around food, and building habits that can survive your actual life. Nicole also introduces The Rewrite, her approach to identifying the old diet-culture rules still influencing your choices and replacing them with evidence-based nutrition skills so you can finally create fat loss you can confidently maintain.  Apply for 1:1 Nutrition Coaching: https://nutritioncoachingwithnicole.com/1-on-1-coaching Check your HSA/FSA Eligibility:   https://app.truemed.com/qualify/tm_qual_q0c29x5n9v

    368 // When Skinny Isn’t Healthy: The Cost of Chasing Your Smallest Body

    In this episode, Nicole unpacks the difference between pursuing thinness at all costs and pursuing fat loss in a way that actually supports your health. She shares her own experience of being at her smallest - and simultaneously her least healthy - as years of restriction and over-exercise cost her energy, strength, her menstrual cycle, bone health, and a healthy relationship with food. Nicole also explores where our obsession with thinness comes from, how 90s and early-2000s diet culture taught women to equate smaller bodies with health, discipline, and worth, and how weight stigma and fear of gaining weight continue to influence the way women eat and care for their bodies today. Throughout this episode you’ll learn how to tell the difference between weight loss at all costs and health-promoting, sustainable fat loss - including why muscle, strength, nutrition, menstrual health, energy, flexibility around food, and your ability to maintain your habits matter more than getting the number on the scale as low as possible. Because weight loss tells you your body got lighter, but it doesn’t tell you what you lost to get there.
