What’s one good book that you COULD. NOT. PUT DOWN. in 2019? For me, it was The Eating Instinct by journalist & author, Virgina Sole-Smith. In this book, Virginia visits kitchen tables around America to tell her own story, as well as the stories of women recovering from weight loss surgery, of people who eat only nine foods, of families with unlimited grocery budgets and those on food stamps. The book is a deep dive into how we all learn to eat in today’s toxic food culture. In today’s episode we discuss: how Virginia got into this work (it started when her newborn stopped eating) and how Virginia’s relationship with food evolved throughout the years. We also explore how social media has contributed to our heightened stress around food, how to navigate food struggles with kids, and things you can do to make sure you’re not projecting your own body image issues onto your children.   For our resources and shownotes, visit foodheavenmadeeasy.com/podcast.   HOOKUP CODES: ZOLA: Build your FREE wedding website and get $50 towards your registry using the link <a href= "http://www.zola.com/foodheaven">www.zola.com/foodheaven</a>   Produced by <a href= "https://www.dearmedia.com">Dear Media</a>

Going Deep With Astrology

Do you compare yourself with others? (Raises hand.) Our podcast guest this week, Marci Evans, spoke about social comparison theory at our annual nutrition conference, and it was hands down the most powerful presentation I have ever been to. Social comparison theory states that individuals determine their own social and personal worth based on how they stack up against others. In some cases, comparison can be helpful, but more often than not, it’s bad for our wellbeing. If you have ever compared your success, body image, relationship status, friendships or even living situation to anyone else (especially on social media), you HAVE to listen to this episode. Tune in to learn: Which personality types tend to be more prone to comparing (hint: people who are empaths), what happens to our brains when we make these cross-comparisons, and concrete things you can do to compare less…starting NOW (and for free).   For our resources and shownotes, visit foodheavenmadeeasy.com/podcast.   HOOKUP CODES: Skinsei: Personalize your skincare routine⁠ with a 1-month free trial for $45 subscription at skinsei.com   Produced by <a href= "https://www.dearmedia.com">Dear Media</a>
