    S3E5 Getting Real About Disordered Eating

    Being skinny and being healthy aren’t the same thing. In this deeply personal episode, I sit down with my close friend Hanna Park for a heartfelt conversation about something that affects so many of us: our relationship with food. In her 20s, Hanna struggled with bulimia, and she shares her journey to recovery with honesty and vulnerability. I open up about my own gut health challenges and the restrictive habits I developed in the name of healing—and how both of our relationships with food and wellness have evolved in our 30s. We talk about how easy it is to slip into disordered patterns, especially when they’re disguised as “healthy” trends like intermittent fasting, elimination diets, or the pursuit of longevity. And we explore how to recognize when well-intentioned choices might actually be doing more harm than good. If you’re working on healing your relationship with food—or just want to stay grounded in today’s overwhelming wellness landscape—this episode is for you. CONTENT WARNING:  In this episode, we discuss personal experiences with disordered and restrictive eating. It’s a conversation we believe is important—but if you’re currently struggling or in recovery, please consider whether this content might be triggering for you.

    S3E4 Food as Medicine: Everyday Strategies to Heal and Nourish

    In this solo episode of Mona-Vated, I dive deep into one of my favorite topics: food as medicine. Whether I'm dealing with uncomfortable bloating, inflammation, or fatigue, I love finding ways to nourish and heal myself with simple whole foods and creative strategies. From soaking and pressure-cooking beans to increase digestibility, to preparing mineral-rich water with leftover veggies, to syncing meals with your menstrual cycle using wisdom from traditional Iranian, Chinese, and Ayurvedic medicine — there are a lot of simple steps you can take in your everyday life that can have a big effect on how you feel in your body. In this episode, I really nerd-out and share my personal food strategies to support gut health, reduce inflammation, and optimize energy. Plus, I go into my unexpected prep list for blood draws and why I keeps seaweed snacks in the fridge. This is a shorter episode, so if there are any health challenges you're facing right now that you'd like to tackle holistically— let us know, and I'll try to share what's worked for me and other holistic strategies you can try!
