In this episode, we're taking a look back at the biggest diet and wellness trends of 2025, and I'm sharing my unfiltered take on which ones I actually liked, which ones were a hard no, and which trends left me feeling very conflicted.
We'll dig into what these trends reveal about where diet culture is heading, how wellness marketing continues to evolve, and why so many of these "health" fads still miss the mark when it comes to sustainable well-being. I'll also share my predictions for what I believe we're heading into in 2026, including what I hope women continue to wake up to when it comes to health, strength, and rejecting diet culture.
If you're feeling tired of the "New Year, New You" narrative and craving a more grounded, realistic, and compassionate approach to health, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.
