    376 // I Got Really Good at Losing Weight... Until It Cost Me My Health

    In this episode of the Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast, Nutrition Coach Nicole Hagen shares the personal experiences that shaped her approach to fat loss coaching, from years of restrictive dieting that led to a fractured hip in her twenties to an unforgettable moment during a weight loss challenge that changed how she thought about long-term results. Nicole explains why knowing how to lose weight isn't the same as knowing how to maintain it, how old diet culture beliefs can continue influencing your relationship with food, and why she created The Rewrite Method to help women pursue fat loss without making food, weight, and their bodies the center of their lives. In this episode, you'll learn: How Nicole's experience with extreme dieting changed her perspective on weight loss What one woman's comment about wanting to eat cake after a weight loss challenge revealed about traditional dieting approaches Why knowing your calorie and macro targets doesn't automatically undo years of guilt, restriction, and all-or-nothing thinking How old diet culture rules can keep you stuck in the same frustrating cycle, even when you're no longer actively dieting Why long-term fat loss requires building habits and skills that work with your actual life How The Rewrite Method combines nutrition science with the work of unlearning old dieting patterns and building confidence around food If you've spent years losing weight, gaining it back, and convincing yourself you just need more willpower, this episode will help you see why the problem might not be your discipline, but the dieting approach you've been trying so hard to follow.

    375 // 5 Diet Culture Rules That Are About to Hijack Your Holiday Season (And How to Rewrite Them)

    In this episode of the Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast, Nutrition Coach Nicole Hagen breaks down five common diet-culture rules that tend to get louder during the holiday season and discusses how beliefs about restriction, holiday treats, compensation, perfection, and the scale can quietly drive your behavior even when you’re no longer actively crash dieting. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why “being extra good” before Thanksgiving can backfire How fear around holiday treats can reinforce the restrict–overeat cycle Why eating more than planned doesn’t require compensation the next day How all-or-nothing thinking can turn one meal into weeks of feeling “off track” Why a higher scale weight after a holiday weekend doesn’t automatically mean fat gain Why sustainable fat loss requires learning how to adapt when routines, meals, and schedules change If you’ve ever thought, “I’ll just start over Monday,” “I need to make up for what I ate,” or “I’ve already blown it,” this episode will help you recognize the beliefs underneath those reactions and practice a different response.

    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. And if you’re ready for support navigating the habits and patterns that keep getting in the way of your fat-loss goal, apply for 1:1 nutrition coaching through the link below.

    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
