Episode 65 - Ditch the “perfect” fertility diet with Deanna Wolfe

Fertile Ground: A mind-body approach to getting pregnant - without it taking over your life.

Imagine this…You go to bed at night…satisfied. No hunger. You wake up refreshed. You have NO guilt around what you ate the day before. No more gluten-shaming yourself. A “perfect diet” is no longer your target, and this makes you feel as though your body is enough and ready for pregnancy – despite eating foods on the “no-go-fertility” list. You feel open. You ARE open. In simpler terms, your worthiness is not determined by your diet. For real though – do you even know how much drama you (and all women) have around food and the mental story around what they put in their mouths? It’s not your fault though. Diet culture is a $71 BILLION industry. We’ve been conditioned to restrict, withhold and be as small as possible (physically, mentally and emotionally) since we were little girls. And without a doubt, the fertility journey will make this pressure stronger. So what’s the alternative to food shaming/food drama/food guilt? In this weeks podcast, I interviewed Deanna. Deanna is a dietician that specializes in ditching diets, cultivating gentle nutrition and learning intuitive eating. I asked her ALL the questions like: How to let go of guilt around food. What exactly is intuitive eating? How to aim for body neutrality over body positivity. Why you don’t have to eat perfectly to be healthy. If you want to learn how to change your relationship with food – even after decades of conditioning – this podcast will teach you what’s possible. Because your worthiness is not dependent on your diet. It’s time to let that patriarchal shit go. Listen now!
