Hey There, It's Me...Your Therapist: Recent Episodes
Amanda Murphy
This is not your average therapy session! That’s because it isn’t a therapy session at all! Look at this more like a great conservation over coffee, wine or a bubbly seltzer water while we talk about all things human. Being one, what’s hard about being one, how to navigate feelings, relationships, grief, insecurities and body image issues, ditching diet culture and so much more. This is not your average self-help podcast, heck some days it might not even be a self-help podcast at all. Just a real, raw and honest conversation between you and me, your therapist.
We are all very aware that the diet industry is up to no good, but what about the wellness culture? If you ask me, it's even sneakier than diet culture. It can really hook you. But I don't want you to become a victim. Let's talk about it, let me share with you how even as an intuitive eating counselor I have become hooked and a victim of the wellness industry.

This may sound like the same topic from a previous episode but I want to attack this from a different angle, more of a food angle, more of an intuitive angle if you will. This is a huge question in the lives of many these days. Can you live intuitively while still eating low-tox? Can you eat low tox while eating intuitively? Is low-tox eating a diet? It is anti-diet, is there such a thing as a gentle dieting period?
Let's talk about it all.

There has been an increase in the number of new health suggestions, tips, and diets and they are all so different but all saying they come in the name of your overall health and well-being. Well, how can that be if they are all so different? And how do we know what is what, which ones are true, who to believe, what to implement and what to ignore?
Let's talk about it, let's talk about how to navigate figuring how what is right for you in all of this.

Things are constantly changing, growing, and evolving. We would be doing ourselves a massive disservice if we didn't allow those changes to happen and that growth to blossom. Here is to the next chapter of the podcast!

How does a certified intuitive eating counselor navigate living low tox you may ask? Well with principal number 10 of course! However, there are so many red flags, and things to watch out for and keep in mind when living low tox and not wanting to fall back into old or similar patterns or behaviors. It can be so tricky and just as overwhelming to navigate the world of wellness and living more organically but it doesn't have to be. Let's dive in.
A different take on change and fear of what others things about us. This shines some more light on just what has been going on in Amanda's world, the changes that are coming, that have happened, and updates on the podcast.

As an intuitive eating counselor, as a therapist, as a chronic, crash dieter turned diet culture drop out, as a human just like you I am willing to bet that there are a few things still floating around the internet, getting buzz, that seem harmless enough as tips to help you in your health journey.
BUUUUUTTTT, I am a firm believer that these things are NOT in fact helping you in any way and actually hindering your healthy, balanced relationship with your body.
What are those things? Let's dive in.

So we have "issues" with our bodies, with the food we eat, our size, exercise you name it. We all are working hard to re-write the narrative around these things to relieve ourselves from these issues.

Things are not always what it seems to be. The things we thought we wanted sometimes turn out to be the last thing we wanted. But sometimes the things that make us the happiest look nothing like we thought they would. Sometimes that is a good thing, we are happy about it. But other times we are often disappointed in that reality.

It is what keeps our dreams and goals at arms reach at all times. Let's dive in.

In this episode, I am sharing the dirt on a part of my journey this past year or so and how it is very important information for you to hear. Knowledge is power and the more you know the more powerful you are! Diet culture and society want us to stay dumb, to be ignorant of the truth. I know I surely do not know everything, I am not trying to convince you, only to empower you! I want you to have all the information you need to make the best choice for yourself! Diet culture has been lying to us for years and now they are still lying to us under the disguise of the wellness industry.

In addition to being skinny, with perfect boobs, belly, and butt you must also look like your 18 forever! Society and the beauty industry are making millions off of you every year trying to convince you that getting older is gross. That you shouldn't look or act your age if you're over 25. You need all these things, these products, these services and procedures to ensure that you preserve your youth. They are robbing you of your gift, the gift of becoming older and wiser.

Allow me to break it to you, we will all gain weight at some point in our lives. We will probably lose weight as well. Our weight and bodies will change sometimes over the years and this is just inevitable. There are also many reasons for this, many, if not all of them are outside of our control!
But despite what society has taught you, gaining weight is not a bad thing. Often it is a very good thing. It is never a bad thing, it is just a thing. Allow me to clue you in!

Okay, okay! Not really, but I am diving into a recent bump in the road on my journey with self-love, self-acceptance, and all things body positive. Out of all things and despite it being, well, rough, it surely has been a humbling experience. One that I feel I must share and really want to share as I love each and every one of you and my story, like all of yours, we just never know who it might help! Alongside that, I NEVER want you to think for a moment that being a certified intuitive eating counselor means that it is any easier for me.
SO not the case.

This mini-sode is all about what you practice. You might be practicing failure and you don’t even realize it! I didn’t.
So we’re talking how that might be, what you can do about it, and why it’s so important!!
Listen in!
Either it is in the DM's or it is in the comment sections, sometimes it is in an email or via conversation but I am always asked how to ditch diet culture without giving up on our health? How do we continue to work towards feeling our best all-around, physically mentally, and emotionally but give up all the BS of diet culture? Can this even be done?
I am diving into all of that today on the podcast!
And if you want to listen in on the older episode of what I think about "balance" why I do not really like it and why I think it gets the wrong reputation to listen in here to this previous episode.

I know I am not the only one who seems to never find what they are truly looking for in each and every day that they wake up. It always seems as if we are still searching for it, we are still waiting to arrive at that destination one day. We are miserable each and every day trying to get to the place, the feeling, the being that we are trying to get to.
But we are doing it all wrong. This is what I realized going into 2021 and it was seriously a light bulb moment for me. I am hoping after you listen to this quicky episode that you will also agree!

I once was addicted to sugar, or so I thought. In diet cultures opinion I was SOOOOO addicted to sugar. I thought I was too. I believed them.

It wasn't until two years post-diet culture break up that I learned the truth. Let me share this truth with you and help you end your sugar addiction.

Of course diet culture and society ruin that for us among many things. SO today I want to talk about why your cravings are actually your friend, how to listen and how to respond as well as more. Tune in!

I feel confident I can speak for the majority of us when I say that we all have an inner mean girl that we just wish to punch in the face.

It is pretty much officially summer and we all know what that means even if we are not saying it or talking about it. That means that it is the time where we are all looking to go to the beach or the pool, it is hot out so we are wearing less clothing. This means that more of our bodies are going to be showing.
Now this might not sit the same with all of us. We all have our own feelings about this, however, some of us might find it more difficult than others. So, I am here today to talk about if that someone is you just how you can turn your frown upside down when you think about putting on a swim suite or a slinky sun dress and get out there and squeeze the most of out of your life.

We are mad! We are all angry! We are upset and down right frustrated at time. It is normal that we want someone to blame. We want to know who is responsible for all of this and when we have something outside ourselves to point the finger at it just seems easier.
But it isn't really all that much easier. However, I want to dig deeper into this idea of blame and who we should be blaming and who we should be more gentle with.

Who the heck is Lindsay!? Well she is only just one of the sassiest, body liberation warriors I have met to date! I loved hearing her story and getting to pick her heart and soul for some really juicy stuff.
Lindsay has spent most of her life, literally most of her life, trying to change her body and thinking that her best life, everything she ever wanted was in a smaller pair of jeans, a smaller body, with a smaller label. But she finally came to realize that it wasn't.
And that isn't all she learned. There has been SO many lessons that came along the way but she is now spending her time trying to reach as many woman as possible to share her story and help spread the message that you ARE enough as you are.
This story is so beautiful and it is just the first. I can't wait for you to hear it.

Ok, now here me out and allow me to explain! We all have times in our lives, personally I think we have multiple times like this a year, where we just feel like we are in a funk. We feel like things are not aligned with where we want to go, who we want to be and things just feel like a mess. These times in our lives feel anything BUT magical or healing, nor do we feel like growth is coming from them. But is that really what is happening?
I think so! So listen in as I explain.

While it doesn't work that way we can learn from those who have already logged miles on their journey to help support us on ours! That is exactly what this episode is about! I am sharing with you some big things, some big takeaways that I feel would of been great to have known from day one!

I have had so many light bulb moments around what exactly is trauma, what it means to recover and to achieve the growth we really want to have to become the highest version of ourselves, the ones that we always envision.

In this episode I dive into my own personal belly issues, what I did about them and everything I learned from trying to cure my belly issues. No one wants to live with belly issues, IBS or IBS like symptoms! However, in this "wellness" culture (AKA DIET CULTURE) the "cure" they are selling is might just be the PROBLEM for you. It was for me!
Now I know we are all different and I am NOT giving you medical advice, this is NOT a recommendation to NOT see a doctor, or NOT listen to them or anything of the sort. This is just my personal experience, some stories others have shared with me and my thoughts around this topic.
The reason I am sharing this is to enlighten and education you loves. We can truly make the BEST choices for ourselves when we are fully informed. I can't wait to hear what you think!

In this episode I literally let whatever words came up come out! When I say I recorded this episode on the spot, last minute at 5:48 am I am NOT KIDDING! I just had to share this because it has been on the brain! Honestly though, I am not sure what podcast topic hasn't been on my brain!
But in all seriousness, I think we need to ask ourselves are we taking ourselves, our goals, our dreams, etc seriously or are we just half a$$ing it and letting ourselves down then wondering why we are super frustrated?!
But I think in order to do this we have to get even more clear on what we do want, what is truly important and what we can weed out of our lives so we can start making more room for the things that really matter.
This can be in any and ALL area's of our lives. So let's dive in! Let's chat!

In this episode I am diving into what hunger directed eating is, why is completely NOT intuitive eating and not getting my vote or support.
Maybe you have heard of it, maybe you haven’t. But from what I can see it all started with a book and many are jumping on the bandwagon. But I warn with caution! It might seem like a good idea, like it promotes and follows intuitive eating, but it doesn’t.

Paige literally holds nothing back in this episode. Not only is she the cutest she is also a yoga instructor and a recovery warrior. Paige is in recovery from a long-time battle of Anorexia. Now what is a little different and horrific about her past with an ED is that Paige never looked the part. What I mean by that is while going through the thick of her battle with anorexia Paige maintained a body weight and size that was acceptable by society. To society and others because of society people did not really notice that Paige was struggling or that she needed help.
We talk about all the details of her ED, how it came about, her struggles with not being accepted by others and herself as having an eating disorder, how she came to finally get recovery and how this has helped empowered her through her yoga teachings and to help others as well.
Paige is simply the sweetest hands down. But don’t take my word for it. Once you have finished listening check her out on Instagram.

In this episode I share with you my story and my history with dieting and how I came to realize I could no longer live my life this way! I am sharing with you the exact moment that I decided I needed a new way of living that did not include diet culture (ravioli was involved, no seriously!) Sometimes I call it my breaking point but it is really the moment I gained my life back and it is the solid foundation for where I am today and why I am here with you loves!
