    2025/01/06
    Katy Harvey, a registered dietitian, shares her personal and professional journey from the diet culture to embracing intuitive eating and body acceptance. Katy talks about how her own relationship with food has evolved and how she now helps women and mothers navigate their complex relationships with food and body image. We also discuss the importance of modeling a healthy attitude towards food and body image for our children, and why dieting often leads to more harm than good. Katy offers practical insights for cultivating a positive relationship with food, regardless of body size, and emphasizes the need for self-compassion in our health journeys. Keywords: Intuitive eating, Diet culture, Body positivity, Nutrition, Eating disorders, Health at every size, Food freedom, Motherhood, Body image, Self-compassion, Parenting, Women's health Key Takeaways: The Danger of Diet Culture: Dieting often leads to yo-yo weight loss, metabolic damage, and poor body image.

Intuitive Eating: Katy emphasizes the importance of listening to your body’s cues for hunger and fullness, and how intuitive eating can help break free from restrictive food rules.

Key Quotes: “The sooner we can get off that dieting roller coaster and make peace with ourselves, the better.” – Katy Harvey “You cannot judge a book by its cover. We all know this, right? You can’t tell by just looking at a person’s body, what they eat, how much they eat, whether or not they exercise.” – Katy Harvey “Health-promoting behaviors do not need to include going on a diet. They can be about nourishing your body with what it needs, listening to your hunger cues, and moving in a way that feels good.” – Katy Harvey “Dieting is the number one predictor of weight gain, not weight loss.” – Katy Harvey “The key to body acceptance is learning to honor your body, no matter its size or shape.” – Katy Harvey Resources Mentioned: Rebuilding Trust with Your Body Podcast: Katy’s own podcast that explores intuitive eating, body image, and related topics.

  • Short: Holiday Recovery for Moms
    2024/12/26

    In this mini-episode, I am sharing my tips and tricks to debrief and recover from the holidays for the moms who make it all happen.

    I am experimenting with having these shorter episodes in addition to my long-form interviews with amazing Everyday Supermoms. I would LOVE your feedback. Click HERE for a quick one question survey about whether you like the shorter episodes. I am going to try them out for a month and see how it goes.

    Here's the tips from today's episode:

    1) Celebrate, rest and recover.

    2) Debrief the events- do a post-game analysis of what you liked or didn't like. What do you want to repeat and what do you want to avoid.

    3) Give yourself some downtime- no need to rush to get the house back to pre-holiday status.

    4) Be slow to return to routine. Rest more, schedule less, give yourself some grace!

    5) Create a holiday notes file and then set a reminder in November of 2025 to review the notes and make the changes you want to make to that next holiday season you have even more to celebrate!

    Share this episode to any mama you know who could benefit from a holiday debrief.
