    #204: Brutally Honest Conversations that Happen Inside Hot Seat Coaching

    If you’ve ever wondered what types of intuitive eating, health and body image conversations are happening behind-the-scenes inside my coaching programs, this episode is literally going to allow you to listen in!   What you’re about to hear is me putting 4 members of my Intuitive Eating Made Easy Facebook community in the “Hot Seat” and coaching them through their questions, as if they were my private client sitting right in front of me.    If you’ve been thinking about hiring me or joining us inside Non-Diet Academy, this is where you’re going to get a taste of what it’s like so that you can hear with your own ears the power of being in a group coaching program where you not only get the benefit of being coached yourself and being guided through your own struggles, but you also get to reap the benefits of others’ work too!    I honestly think you’re bonkers if you don’t want to get inside this program right now, because I know in my soul that it could 10x your progress and help you to have more peace and freedom with food, your body and your health than you can even imagine - before the holidays even hit this year!!   Episode Highlights   🔥 “K” asked, “How do I deal with strong urges to emotionally overeat?”   🔥 “E” gets coached through where candy fits in with intuitive eating (and health), and whether Diet Coke is really as dangerous as we’ve been told.    🔥 “P” was wondering, “How do I fully support my body and stay on track with intuitive eating when life gets busy or stressful?”   🔥 “A” is navigating how to set boundaries with her roommate who is on a diet, and what to do if she still hasn’t found ‘joyful movement’ even after trying for a couple of years.    Resources Mentioned:   - Email or DM me to sneak into the current cohort of Non-Diet Academy that just started!  - Join the Intuitive Eating Made Easy Facebook Group   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey   Intuitive eating education on the blog Work with Katy Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster   Connect with Katy Harvey   Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD    Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

    #202: Why You Do Awesome On Diets (And Then It All Falls Apart)

    Do you feel like dieting is where you shine? Where you can follow the plan, feel in control, and you feel like you’re doing something positive for yourself?...But when you’re not dieting everything falls to pieces and suddenly you’re stuffing your face with cookies and feeling like crap?    Dieting offers a sense of structure, security, and the hope that if you just “stick with it” and “do it right” that you’ll have the body (and life) of your dreams.    My guest today is a client of mine who grew up in a home shaped by diet culture where her mother was always dieting, "bad" foods were hidden, and she was shamed for eating, and shamed for not eating (hello, Clean Your Plate Club). Meanwhile, there were shaming comments made about her body that set her up for a lifelong struggle with body image and yo-yo dieting.   Diana McNeill is a recently retired fitness instructor who had a wakeup call when her husband was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and she realized that she couldn’t keep wasting her precious time, energy and attention on dieting anymore.    That’s when she discovered intuitive eating, and has been on a journey towards making peace with food, healing her body image and navigating life without dieting any longer.    Listen to Diana share her story of healing, the specific steps she’s taken to “do the work” of intuitive eating, and how you can follow in her footsteps to make peace with food too.    Episode Highlights   “Life is too precious to spend at war with your body. Stop treating your body so poorly and remember your freedom begins when you stop letting your appearance define your worth.” – Diana McNeill   Resources Mentioned   - Join Non-Diet Academy Here!   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey   Intuitive eating education on the blog Work with Katy Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster Connect with Katy Harvey   Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD  Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

    Let’s lay it all out on the table. What feels hard about letting go of dieting? What is holding you back from going all-in with intuitive eating?

(Because the truth is, it ain’t all sunshine and rainbows.)    We’re also going to talk through how to navigate this “messy middle” where you know in your heart that dieting isn’t the answer, but you also don’t feel convinced about intuitive eating either.    Episode Highlights   #1 - The things you give up when you give up dieting.

    #199: 5 Things We'd Do Immediately If You Wanted to Improve Your Health While Eating Bagels and Pasta

    I used to think that in order to be healthy I had to avoid things like carbs, and fat...and basically anything that tasted good. Even as a dietitian, I got sucked into thinking of food as good/bad, and I approached my eating with restriction being my strategy for health.   It wasn't until I flipped things around and started practicing "nutrition by addition" and embracing ALL foods as part of 1) listening to my body, and 2) overall balanced eating, that I saw how it's totally possible to get healthier while eating bagels, pasta, ice cream, and Oreos.   That's because the all-or-none mindset with food actually backfires. It either leads to restriction, deprivation, and a life of rigid rule following...or it leads to being off the rails bingeing on food.   In this episode, we’re going to cover 5 things we'd change immediately if you came to me and wanted to eat bagels while watching your labs improve, your digestion feel better, and your blood sugar stabilize.   When you do all of these things consistently, enjoying bagels and pasta while simultaneously watching your health improve doesn't just become possible...it becomes your reality.   If you're ready for this to happen, hit play and let’s go!   Episode Highlights   1️⃣ The #1 daily behavior I would tell you to STOP doing immediately. (Besides dieting…obviously we’re not doing that anymore around here, right?)   2️⃣ The first thing that you should do each morning that will improve your health and get both your metabolism and digestion working properly.   3️⃣ My mix-and-match strategy for pairing food together to allow you to eat the foods you enjoy, while balancing your blood sugar and honoring your health. (aka my “Have Your Cake and Eat It Too” method!)   Today’s Wellness Woo is Poppi.   Resources Mentioned   - Sign up for my weekly email newsletter here!   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey   Intuitive eating education on the blog Work with Katy Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster   Connect with Katy Harvey   Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD    Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

    #198: Why You Binge on Weekends (And How to Stop)

    Find yourself doing well with your eating during the week, only to end up bingeing on the weekends? Here’s the fix.   Let’s face it, whether you’re on a diet, or you’ve been doing intuitive eating (or you’re somewhere in between), weekends are harder with food. There are social events, dinners out, cocktails, tailgates, bridal showers, your kids’ sporting events, and so many things that can throw you off your normal eating routine…and lead to a binge…on the weekends.   In this episode, I’m giving you real, simple, and doable ways to stop the weekend binges, so that your weekend eating can be enjoyable, balanced and easy.    These aren’t going to be time-consuming things like meal prepping or journaling a novel. Instead, they’re mental reframes, anchor points, and strategies that will keep you connected with your body (rather than off the rails with food).    I also talk about something that might sound counter-intuitive…why menu planning for your entire week at a time might just be the most powerful way to cut down on the weekend binges, allow yourself to eat all the foods you love (not just on the weekend but during the week as well), and to still include things like veggies, fiber and protein on the weekends so that your body is getting the consistent nourishment it needs.    (And trust me, you’re still going to be able to enjoy weekends full of dinners out with your girlfriends, cake at weddings, brunch, and your favorite adult beverages - without guilt, and without going overboard.)   Episode Highlights   🍽️ Why weekends are so triggering (and the variables you’re probably overlooking that are feeding into the cycle)   🍽️ Losing track of listening to your body - and how to stay connected with your hunger, fullness, and gentle nutrition ALL week (and weekend!) long   🍽️ What to do instead: Intuitive eating tools for weekends   Today’s Wellness Woo is Javvy Coffee   Resources Mentioned   - Grab my free menu planning guide + templates here!   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey   Intuitive eating education on the blog Work with Katy Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster   Connect with Katy Harvey   Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD    Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!
