How do I start intuitive eating? What steps do I need to take to achieve food freedom? How can I improve my body image? Is intuitive eating even right for me? Can I really make peace with food and my body?
Welcome to the Intuitively You Podcast where you will find answers to all of these questions, and so much more.

Oh oh oh… Ozempic! As much as I hate that the catchy commercial jingle is forever stuck in my head, let’s chat about Ozempic. Really, let’s chat about the weight loss drug (aka. semaglutides & GLP-1 medications) craze that’s been going on the past year or so.
Our guest, Kirsten Morrisson, is an Anti-Diet Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. She is the Host of Intuitive Bites Podcast and runs her own virtual private practice helping women heal their relationships to food and body. Kirsten also previously worked in a bariatric clinic (weight loss surgery) and understands all the nuances of what people go through when pursuing intentional weight loss.
In this episode, we chat about:
- Kirsten’s background working as a bariatric dietitian in a weight loss clinic
- The unrealistic expectations that are place upon folks looking to lose weight
- What Ozempic and other similar drugs really are
- The side effects that come along with the use of Ozempic or similar drugs
- How Ozempic really works, and why it's not so glamorous
- The long term effects and consequences of taking something like Ozempic
- How you can stay grounded in your food freedom journey during the Ozempic craze

It can feel beyond frustrating to live in the diet culture infested world that we live in. Adding in the layers of healthism, elitism, discrimination, racism, and more can make it feel like a nightmare to attain society’s unrealistic ideals of “health.” In this episode, our guest Shana Spence and I break down these big systemic problems, shed light on them, and talk about how you can overcome them.
Our guest, Shana, is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist based in Brooklyn, New York. She currently works in public health for the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, doing community nutrition lessons, and also owns her own company, The Nutrition Tea ®. She describes herself as an "all foods fit" dietitian and creates a platform for open discussion on nutrition and wellness topics that are inclusive, non-diet, and weight-neutral, all with an intersectionality of social justice.
In this episode, we chat about:
- The important factors of health that are overlooked
- Why ‘healthcare is political, health is not’
- Healthism and how it might be impacting you
- How diet culture contributes to social justice issues like elitism, discrimination, and more
- Stigma, xenophobia, and racism surrounding cultural foods
- Processed foods and why they aren’t the ‘big bad thing’ you may think they are

A decade ago I was in the thick of things with my binge eating & dieting struggles. It felt like I was pushing a boulder up a mountain that had no peak, and the boulder kept slipping, and getting bigger and bigger, and harder to push, as I went. It was exhausting.

How long have you been waiting to feel your best? Do you feel like you have to change your body FIRST before you can feel or be healthy?
This week a client of mine said to me, “I’m taking actions to feel healthy now and am no longer waiting to lose 20 lbs first.” And this shift made her feel so much more empowered than being stuck in the narrative of, “I just need to wait until my body is smaller, then I can do the things in alignment to how I want to live my life.” And I want to chat with you about it!
In this episode, we chat about:
- Why it makes sense to feel like you have to ‘wait for weight loss’ to take action
- The messages diet culture makes us believe
- How you can actually feel healthy, happy, confident, etc. before (even without) losing weight

- The question I want you to ask yourself

Do you feel like you’re only worthy of doing certain things if you eat “well”? Or do you feel like you’re only deserving of rest if you’ve already done a certain type of workout? OR do you feel like can’t embody or have confidence until your body is smaller, different, or more toned?
If you said yes to any of the above (or if you’re thinking “I’ve never thought of that, maybe!”) then chances are you may be tying your self-worth to food & your body. This is something that many of my clients (and my past self included) struggle with. It’s what diet culture and society at large teach us to think like – you need to “prove” your worthiness by eating “good,” exercising “the right way,” or having your body look a certain way.
That ends here. It’s time to remember that you’re inherently worthy of all the things that you desire, no changes required.
In this episode, we chat about:
- What self-worth is, and what it means to me
- Why we tie our self worth to food & our bodies
- The inherent worthiness we all have
- How to untangle your self worth from food or your body
- 5 steps to shift your limiting beliefs
- Self image and how it’s related to self worth

Anxiety. Perfectionism. Low-self esteem. These are all things you may have experienced along your food freedom journey (I know I have!).

I’ll take any opportunity to call out diet culture BS when I see it. The recent Washington Post article “As obesity rises, Big Food and dietitians push ‘anti-diet’ advice” has quite frankly p*ssed me off, and I want to talk about it with you! There is a large systemic issue at hand when it comes to Intuitive Eating, Health At Every Size (HAES), and weight-inclusive non-diet work. Biased publications, like the Washington Post, are spreading ignorant and misinformed information about what “anti-diet” really means.
This makes me the most frustrated because I can only imagine how confusing it must be to see headlines like this when you are someone who is trying to pursue your relationship with food & body healing journey. So in this episode, I want to set the record straight. Let’s dive into some big myth busting about anti-diet work!
I chat with you about:
- The recent Washington Post article on “anti-diet dietitians”
- What people often get wrong when they think about anti-diet or intuitive eating
- How anti-diet does NOT mean eating twinkies in unlimited amounts
- Anti-diet DOES mean improving your well-being – physical, mental, emotional, overall!
- What Health at Every Size, Intuitive Eating, weight-inclusive care, anti weight bias, etc. are really about
- How oppressive, inequitable, and harmful weight-centric ways of approaching health can be
- Restrictive diets often leading to weight cycling and/or disordered eating, or even eating disorders
- How a surface-level look at intuitive eating is not helpful, it’s very nuanced
- To not rely on social media solely for support in your health & well-being
- And so so much more.

Have you ever thought it was nearly impossible to actually CRAVE veggies? I used to think the same. I craved the sweets all the time – the chips, the chocolate, the cookies, the ice cream… but how could I possibly crave vegetables?
Back when my past self was on-and-off diets, non-stop eating sweets into the evening, and trying to be as “good” as possible during the day, I didn't think anyone could actually want to eat more vegetables. But last weekend I was really craving veggies. And I want to chat with you about it!
This episode is a good example of what intuitive eating can look like in real life. I’m sharing a lot about where I used to be and how I got to this point where I can feel so at peace with all foods, that I actually crave vegetables.
I chat with you about:
- What my life looked like when I was stuck in the diet-binge cycle
- My negative past relationship with food
- How things changed for me and what life looks like now in my intuitive eater era
- My now positive relationship with food
- Why I was craving vegetables
- What was going through my mind and how I responded to the “craving” for veggies
- How this is very different than the diet mentality

Self trust. Something that is so important to living a full, authentic, intuitive life, but is also something that can be super tricky to foster. Especially when we may have gone years and years with dieting and breaking our self trust by “not sticking to the plan” or “eating unhealthy” or whatever other messages you’ve learned to believe from diet culture.
Dieting erodes our self trust. But don’t fret – choosing a more intuitive path and healing your relationship with food and with yourself allows you to rebuild that self trust. Even better yet is using different tools and modalities to rebuild and foster a greater sense of self trust. Tools like human design! In this episode, we’re chatting with human design expert Rowan Asad. This is a juicy one!
We chat about:
- What human design really is
- How to figure out your human design
- Using human design to rebuild self-trust
- Intuition and self compassion
- The different energy types and authorities of human design (don’t worry we cover what the heck that means too, haha!)
- Some fun things like how digestion, environment, and much more
- And of course, how all of this relates to your intuitive eating journey

What causes us to do the things we do? Get the results we get? And feel the way we feel? It’s a little bit of a complex answer, but a big piece of this puzzle boils down to our mindset.
If you know a thing or two about me, it’s no surprise to you that I LOVE all things mindset work. I totally like to geek out on why our minds do what they do, the foundations of neuroscience, how to change our limiting beliefs, and more, all in the pursuit of being able to live the lives that our souls deep down truly desire. And build the relationship with food that allows us to live the lives we’re meant to.
In this episode, I’m going to chat with you about why and how I combine intuitive eating and mindset work together to help folks like you see impactful and lasting changes in their relationships with food.
We will chat about:
- How I combine intuitive eating + mindset work together
- What kinds of tools of mindset work I love to use
- Thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and core beliefs
- Why taking a look at your mindset is so dang important on a food freedom journey
- How to actually change your behaviours
- Why “bad” habits with food are hard to shake, and how to make new ones

Have you found yourself in the place of wanting to jump into an intuitive eating journey, but feeling fearful of not knowing what would happen to your weight? Maybe you still want to lose weight, but at the same time, you know that you don’t want to keep fighting your body anymore.
Meet Merrill, a graduate of the Embodied Food Freedom group coaching program. Before she joined, her journey started as being a binge eater since she was a pre-teen, trying to do all the “right” things with eating, being stuck in the comparison trap to others, what they ate & their bodies, feeling so entrenched in diet culture, and just not feeling comfortable or in control around food. While working through the FREEdom Method in the EFF program, Merrill was able to change her relationship with food to look more like: eating intuitively, not feeling guilty about food, knowing what to do if the inner food police voice does creep in, ditching the scale and external validation from it, found joy in movement again, and so much more!
If you can at all relate to those struggles or shifts, please take episodes like this one where we chat about someone’s real-life-journey as an example that YOU can do this too.
We chat about:
- The fears Merrill had before joining EFF
- How much diet culture impacts our entire lives
- This food freedom journey not being a “perfect” one, and how there’s no final destination, but great life-changing shifts along the way
- The journey to ditching the scale
- Taking her power back with food, movement & her body image
- How she shifted to having less food-related stress, thoughts, and urgency
- What Merrill loved about the EFF program
- And her advice for YOU!

Have you ever felt that you have all the “nutrition knowledge” or know what you “should do,” but still feel like something is missing in how you relate to food? Maybe you have a lot of nutrition knowledge but are still struggling with food, feel insecure in your body, struggle with binge eating, or are simply having a hard time feeling satisfied in your relationship with food. This was Madiha’s story as well. In this week’s episode we talk about her journey through my signature program, Embodied Food Freedom, and how she was able to completely transform her life and relationship with food in a few short months together!
In this episode things get personal and we cover:
- Weight comments and criticisms Madiha endured in her teenage years and how that shaped her relationship with food
- Navigating postpartum body changes and criticisms
- What happens when nutrition “knowledge” falls short or doesn’t work
- The shift that had to happen for Madiha to take the leap and invest in herself
- How Embodied Food Freedom changed Madiha’s relationship to food and life in general
- Where Madiha is today in her relationship to food and her body
- The one piece of advice Madiha wants YOU to hear
This is a beautiful story of how you can go from feeling stuck and overwhelmed by food and your relationship with your body, to feeling complete peace and empowerment. I hope you will take some time to listen and be encouraged by this story today.

Are you still struggling to break free from the diet culture mentality? Do you find yourself engaging in "clean" eating or using phrases like "cheat" days or weekends? If so, you might be unknowingly holding onto sneaky forms of dieting that are preventing you from truly achieving food freedom. In this episode, I chat with you about the sneaky ways that diet culture can still impact our relationships with food, even if we think we've left our dieting mentality behind.
We’ll chat about the 10 common signs that you might still be dieting without realizing it, such as:
- Focusing on "clean" eating
- Doing extreme challenges like 75 Hard
- Using phrases like "cheat" days or weekends
- Saving up calories for nights out or events
-
- more!
I also share alternative mindset shifts for each of these behaviours for you to make impactful change in your relationship with food. It’s so important to let go of restriction and tune into our body's needs to get to a place of true food freedom. The ultimate goal is to break free from the diet-binge cycle and find a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food. Who’s with me?!

- How to Dress Confidently at Any Body Size with Dacy Gillespie
Do you struggle not knowing what to wear? Feel like you can’t find clothes that truly fit your body and feel unique to you? Does the media influence your personal style or does your body type not feel well represented in clothing brands? Chime into this podcast to hear how you can embody your true self through fashion!
This week’s guest Dacy Gillespie, Personal Stylist and Owner of Mindful Closet, discusses how to dress confidently at any body size and break free from any fashion “rules” that limit one’s self expression.
We go deep into:
- How unlearning and relearning beliefs around food AND clothes is an essential part of the journey
- How feeling comfortable in your clothes can impact your confidence and how you feel in your body
- Top tips for finding your personal style and clothing confidence
- How to remove the fear of spending money on clothes and what to do if you can't afford new clothes right now
- Clothing tips for bad body image days and how to let go of clothes that no longer fit or serve you
A question that I’m LOVING from Dacy in this episode is, “If you didn’t have limiting beliefs about what you could wear, what would you WANT to wear?” By squashing societies standards and “rules” for fashion and our bodies - we can truly find our own personal style, express ourselves freely and be our truest selves, no matter our body’s size. Now let’s fight against the “body ideals” and narratives and create body respect, together!
This episode also mentions Brianna Campos, aka Body Image with Bri, who talks extensively about body grief and self acceptance. You can follow her here.

As we close out 2022, the “New Year, New Me” talk is quickly approaching. Maybe you’re feeling that little voice in your mind pull you towards starting a new years diet, making new years ‘healthy eating’ resolutions, trying to finally ‘eat clean,’ focusing on losing a certain number of pounds, ‘getting back on track’ after the holidays, or forcing yourself to go to the gym when you actually dread it.

Rebuilding trust is absolutely a foundation for having a healthy, peaceful relationship with food and overcoming binge eating, overeating, and emotional eating. It’s pretty hard to have food freedom if we don’t have trust. Dieting erodes your self-trust around food. All the ‘shoulds’ about how, when, and what we should be eating teaches us to not trust ourselves around food and detaches us from our body’s inner wisdom.
So let’s change that and learn how to trust yourself around food. In this episode, we’ll chat about how to trust your body, trust yourself to make aligned food decisions, trust yourself around sweets and fun foods, and how to foster trust in your ability to actually HAVE food freedom.
In this episode we cover:
- Why we feel like we can’t trust ourselves around food
- The 3 main things that make us feel out of control around food
- What trusting yourself around food is and is not
- 2 tips on how you can start to build trust around food for yourself
It’s time to take your power back, instead of food holding power over you.

This episode is so near and dear to my heart and just filled with so much cuteness because our guest is… my 94-year-old grandma! She is the sweetest lady I know. Why on the Intuitively You podcast you ask? To share her food freedom wisdom with you.
My grandma has never dieted in her life, she’s always allowed all foods (all the fun foods included!) into her life, and she definitely embodies a healthy relationship with food, her body + movement. I’m SO excited for you to tune into this episode, and get all the warm and fuzzy grandma vibes sent your way through your earbuds!
We chat about:
- How she’s a very healthy 94-year-old lady
- Her love for food + cooking
- Growing up on a farm and how that impacted her (and my) relationship with food

It was such a joy for me to sit down and have tea with my grandma and record this episode. The original idea to record this was mainly for fun, but I truly believe she’s going to give you some great nuggets of wisdom for your own relationship with food!

Fitness culture and diet culture really go hand-in-hand, both disconnect us from our bodies and our inner wisdom. Remember the Tumblr days? Yup. big eye roll there! Even if you weren’t hanging out on Tumblr, you’ve probably heard the phrases surrounding exercise like: “No pain, no gain.” “The only bad workout is the one that didn’t happen.” “No excuses.” or “You have to earn your body.” These phrases aren’t really motivational, they’re filled with shame.
In this episode, our guest Zabrina Motwani and I bust these exercise myths and help you see how fitness culture may have influenced your view of exercise. We cover what body neutral fitness is, how to start enjoying movement again after a broken relationship with exercise, listening to your body instead of the “shoulds,” and more!
Guest Bio:
Zabrina is a body neutral personal trainer and group fitness instructor. She lives in Denver, CO, she’s half Indian, half Peruvian and grew up in Ecuador. She quit her corporate job (as a social media manager at a marketing agency) because she knew that she wanted to create a space free from diet culture, where folks could explore joyful movement without the pressure to change their bodies. She absolutely LOVES what she does, and it makes her so happy to help folks implement movement into their lives from a different lens than mainstream fitness! Strength training and dancing are her favorite forms of movement.
