Episode 56: Body Positivity, Part 1-Is the BMI Still Helpful?

4/5/2019

Keeley joins me today to kick off our four part series on Body Positivity! Is this a phrase you've heard before? We're spending today's episode talking about what the concept means to us and why we think our definition doesn't leave space for the BMI to hold power. After listening, you may want to hang onto this definition, so here it is for you in writing:

Here at We Feel Super Nourished, Body Positivity means:
1. Yes! All bodies are good bodies.
2. We tell the truth about our bodies in love.
3. Health is available to shapes and sizes of all sorts and must be determined through a holistic lens.

Episode 55: Supplements!

3/29/2019

Today, I get to sit down with Leah to talk supplements: what are they, why do we take them, and when do we take them? And then we get into..."but what about when they're not our top priority?" If you've been wondering whether or not you're taking enough supplements, we hope today's episode gives you permission to breathe easy and keep focusing on your most important things (which may include supplements). Let's get into it!

Episode 53: Approaching the Tricky Conversations

3/15/2019

Keeley is back to help us talk through a sensitive topic! What do you do when a close friend or family member needs help with health? Is it your place to intervene? If so, how do you even start the conversation? We're here to tell you that while it's not our responsibility to fix people or to assume ourselves the experts of their experiences...if they're open to have a conversation, good can come of it! As proof, here's a photo of the female side of our family clan...most of whom have graciously let me ask dignifying questions about their health. And the relationships survived!

Episode 52: Eating Out

3/8/2019

Well now that we've thoroughly discussed why we prefer eating at home...let's turn the tables and talk about how we approach eating out. Because even for those with the most sensitive of diets, eating out is part of thriving in society from time to time. Leah and I have two very different perspectives to offer you. For me, eating out is all about focusing on people over food (but never ignoring the food) and for Leah, eating out is mainly about safety now that managing Celiac Disease is her primary health task. She was very generous to lend us some insight into how having a serious food sensitivity impacts social life. So let's dig in!

Episode 50: Low Carb, Unloaded

2/22/2019

To say carbs are getting the most attention of the macronutrients these days would be an understatement! Fat used to be under attack...protein has stayed relatively safe from diet trends...but carbs? People are eager to talk about this! In all seriousness though, recent research on sugar has caused more conversations about carbohydrate consumption to pop up in various nutrition circles, and for good reason. Today, Jackie and I are comparing and contrasting 3 of the most popular low carb approaches. Let's dive in!

Episode 49: When Diets are Different

2/15/2019

What do you do when you eat one way, your kid eats another way, and your partner eats in a way that doesn't resemble either one of those diets? Whatever your household look like, if you live with other people, chances are you share some of your meals and chances are you don't have the exact same nutrition goals as the person sitting across the table from you. Today, Leah and I are exploring how to make a single meal work for multiple lifestyle diets...and we're speaking from experience, as women who eat very differently from our husbands! Let's jump in.
