Ep 44: 2025 Wrapped: Building Binge Free Bestie, Backing Myself, and What’s Coming in 2026

Spring often means one thing for your feed. The "summer body" ads are back, the gym marketing is ramping up, and diet culture is about to get loud. In this episode, I am breaking down why restriction, not willpower, is the actual binge trigger, how to spot diet culture hiding inside "wellness" content, and what to do instead of shrinking yourself for the season ahead.

In this episode, Emma Wright, a feminist health coach, shares insights on how societal power structures influence body image, dieting, and the use of medications like GLP-1s. We explore the intersection of feminism, health, and food, offering practical perspectives on reclaiming worth and navigating diet culture.

In this episode, Nic is joined by Alaina Booth for a conversation about courage, joy, and building a life that feels meaningful now, not after weight loss or perfection.

You've eaten fine all day. You're not even hungry. Then 9pm hits and you're standing in front of the pantry like it owes you money.

But here's what nobody's telling you: half of what gets called food noise is just... hunger. And the other half is diet culture, dressed up in a scarier name so it can sell you a fix.
