Quitting Diet Culture

We broke up with macros.

Listen to episode 95 of the Naturally Caroline podcast 🎧

Katie Crokus, recipe creator and storyteller, is back on the podcast today! Our life paths intertwined during my years as a health coach when Katie came to me on a journey to leanness, but ended up walking a much more challenging path… One away from diet culture and towards freedom, confidence, peace, and yes - bigger clothes.

Our stories are similar as we each spent YEARS as chronic dieters (myself competing as an IFBB bikini pro for two years), obsessed with fat loss, never missing a workout, and only eating what fit into our daily macros.

Fast forward to today - neither of us hardly even thinks about food! We feel happy in our bodies, we are thriving in life & motherhood, and eating healthy just feels EASY.

How did we get here?
What were the biggest hurdles to overcome?
Weren’t we afraid to gain weight?
Is moderation actually real? Even with ice cream?!
Do you ever want your leaner body back?

We dig into the answers to these questions and so much more in this deep, authentic, and honest AF conversation. If you’re in the thick of body image challenges right now, I hope you feel seen & supported today 🤍
