As the year comes to a close, there is a lot of messaging to keep going, to push through—to push harder, even. We’d like to offer up another perspective: chill the f*ck out. Jokes aside, we like to use December as a month to reflect on the past year and prepare for the next. Want to perform a 2024 audit? Here’s how we do it. (We do say 2021 in this episode, but hey, it still works for 2024!)

(This episode is a replay from December 2021.)

Yes, food is fuel but it is so much more than that. Food is community and connection, and honestly, sometimes that shit is simply delicious. We used to be those kinds of people who weighed every ounce of food and cried if you asked for a bite—aka, we were obsessed and dysfunctional. Now we can share food without a second thought and it no longer has the same kind of power over us. If you’re stuck in an unhealthy relationship with your food, know that food freedom is possible! It takes a little mindfulness and a lot of practice, but we’re here on the other side, waiting for you to join us (and share a French fry or two).

The holiday season is just around the corner and with the holidays comes a lot of stress, expectations, and obligations. Fuck that. Just because someone said you “should” spend the holidays with your family (who you might not even like!) doesn’t mean you have to! If it takes away from your peace and joy, it doesn’t have to be a priority. You may end up having a few difficult conversations and you may end up breaking a few traditions, but there’s always time to make some of your own.

(This episode is a replay from November 2022.)
