    "I made the wrong choices": Alice Liveing and the 'wellness' lie

    Throughout our body image series - we’ve had so many powerful, inspiring and life-affirming conversations with people who have incredible advice on how we can build better relationships with our bodies. One of those people is Alice Liveing.  Alice is a personal trainer, influencer, columnist, podcaster and bestselling author who has inspired thousands of people with her relatable, motivational and balanced health advice.  In this conversation, we take a look back to the 2010s - when she inadvertently became the poster girl for so-called “clean eating”. We found out how Alice found herself in that situation and what led her to move away from it to build a healthy relationship with her body image.  If you want to hear our full investigation of wellness - you can listen to our episode ‘The “Wellness” Rebrand’ which is available now.  Follow @aliceliveing on Instagram  You can buy your copy of Alice’s book Give Me Strength here If you would like to get in touch - you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com Follow us on Instagram: @shouldideletethat @em_clarkson @alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye Lawrence Music: Dex Roy Studio Manager: Dex Roy Trailers: Sophie Richardson Video Editor: Celia Gomez Social Media Manager: Emma-Kirsty Fraser Hosted on Acast.

    What if we stopped hating our bodies?

    We’ve downed tools - because it’s time to reflect on everything that we’ve learned and felt throughout our big body image series.  Join Em and Al to discuss what we’ve learned through this series - from the history of diet culture to the way the diet landscape is shifting and morphing in front of our eyes.  We chat about where we’re at with our own body image journeys, how we’re going to move forward from this series, and how we might be able to - as a society - fix our relationships with our bodies.  Thank you to our brilliant listeners who sent us their voice notes for this episode - we couldn't feature all of them in this episode but we loved listening to them all. A special thanks to: Sophie, Jessica, Marsy, Hannah, Riss, Aimee, Eimear and Catherine from the IVF BFF Podcast If you want to dig further into diet culture, self-acceptance and making peace with your body - Alex’s book You Are Not A Before Picture is available now.

    Ozempic: miracle or myth? ... with Dr Giles Yeo

    It’s time to address the elephant in the room - Ozempic.  We know that Ozempic will change - and is already changing - the body image landscape. There is so much noise online, in the media and in our personal lives about the so called ‘miracle’ drug - so we decided to call in the help of an expert, to clear up the myths from the facts.  Dr Giles Yeo is a professor at the University of Cambridge, whose research focuses on food intake, genetics and obesity. We got him in the studio to answer all the questions we had about Ozempic - to help us understand the science behind the drug that everyone is talking about.  You can buy Giles’ latest book Why Calories Don’t Count here Follow @gilesyeo on Instagram   If you would like to get in touch - you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com Follow us on Instagram: @shouldideletethat @em_clarkson @alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye Lawrence Music: Dex Roy Studio Manager: Dex Roy Trailers: Sophie Richardson Video Editor: Celia Gomez Social Media Manager: Emma-Kirsty Fraser Hosted on Acast.

    Ozempic: the truth behind the weight loss revolution

    The body image landscape is changing in front of our eyes - and we have Ozempic to blame - or thank - for that.  For the last few years - Ozempic has been the topic that has dominated the cultural conversation. Is it the silver bullet to help us with our body image or are pharmaceutical companies taking advantage of our collective desire to be thin?  In this episode we speak to a doctor who is an expert on Ozempic, a psychologist and someone who has taken the drug to dig right to the core of this thorny, controversial topic. Is Ozempic a miracle or is it causing more damage than it’s worth? We don’t know where it’s going to end - but we know for certain that this isn’t the last we’ll hear of the drug.

    Growing up in a world that hates your body… with Stephanie Yeboah

    After growing up in a world that teaches us to hate our bodies - how can we come to feel at peace with, or even begin to feel positive about our bodies? And what happens when the movement that made you feel better about your body shifts to a position you no longer align with?  Stephanie Yeboah is a content creator, author and journalist - and we spoke to her as part of our exploration of the body positivity movement. It was a movement that she was closely associated with, but one that she has moved away from in recent years. In this extended edition of our conversation we find out why - and how we can move forward in dismantling fatphobia as a society.

    What happened to body positivity?

    If you’re listening to this episode, we reckon it’s safe to say you’re well aware of the body positivity movement, or at the very least, one of the fractions of its evolution; whether that be the self love movement or body confidence one. It’s within those, after all, that we really made our names.  Today, we’re taking you back to the inception of the body positive movement, which started by and for plus-size black women. In this episode, we dive into how the movement has changed beyond recognition - and where its future may lie.  Thanks so much to our amazing guests who feature on this episode: Stephanie Yeboah, Jade Elouise, Holly Hagan and Phillippa Diedrichs Follow @stephanieyeboah on Instagram Pre-order Stephanie’s book Chaotic Energy: The hilarious, heartfelt, must-read romantic comedy now!   Follow @justjadeelouise on Instagram Read more about the work of Fat Liberation London here Follow @fatliblondon on Instagram Follow @hollyhaganblyth on Instagram Follow @phillippa.diedrichs on Instagram  Read more about Phillippa’s work at: https://www.phillippadiedrichs.com/  If you would like to get in touch - you can email us on shouldideletethatpod@gmail.com  Follow us on Instagram: @shouldideletethat @em_clarkson @alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye Lawrence Music: Dex Roy Studio Manager: Dex Roy Trailers: Sophie Richardson Video Editor: Celia Gomez Social Media Manager: Emma-Kirsty Fraser Hosted on Acast.
