"It helps ground me when I remind myself that what people say about food or bodies reveals their own relationship with food, not mine."
Family gatherings can stir up heavy feelings when old patterns of food and body talk resurface, especially when you’re working hard to heal your relationship with food. In this episode, I’m sharing my own experiences with triggering family comments about food and body image, why they stay with us, and how to navigate them without losing your progress. We talk about why these moments can feel especially heavy when you're working on healing your relationship with food, and I offer practical ways to protect your emotional well-being, set boundaries, and stay grounded even when loved ones are stuck in diet culture.
