This week on Chatting with Cara I’m diving into one of the most overwhelming and confusing topics out there right now: nutrition advice and the constant noise around what you “should” or “shouldn’t” eat.
If you’ve ever found yourself scrolling through social media wondering “Should I cut out dairy?” or feeling guilty for grabbing a takeaway after a long day, this episode is for you.
In this episode, I cover -
Why the world of nutrition feels like the Wild West and how endless conflicting advice leaves you second-guessing every meal.
How black-and-white thinking around food sets you up for failure and why flexibility, not perfection is key.
The power of guidelines over food rules and how to find the wiggle room that real life requires.
How to spot manipulative language in nutrition, “you should,” “you need to,” “you must” and how to filter out the noise.
Why it’s time to audit your media feed and unfollow people who don’t know what they are talking about.
How to build a calmer, more compassionate relationship with food by quieting the chaos and focusing on what actually nourishes you.
I want you to do three things -
Follow guidelines and not food rules.
Listen to people's language around food.
Do a media audit so anyone who makes you feel like their way is the only way - it’s time to unfollow. (that also goes for Steven Bartlett)
