I talk with Elyse Resch, a nutrition therapist and founder of Intuitive Eating, about the way we relate to food. She shares the harms of weight stigma, The intuitive eaters approach to emotional eating, why she likes to think of eating through the lens of satisfaction, and how to maintain our children’s natural instinct for intuitive eating.

Rachel Tuchman, LMHC and I are joined by Alyssa Goldwater to wrap up our winter long mental health series with a discussion on stigma. We discuss the difference between mental health and mental illness, the hypocrisy of judging others, how Alyssa handles other peoples reactions to her sharing and the problem with saying ‘they’re just doing it for attention’

I go solo to talk about fast fashion, how clothes are made and the reason I decided to make a denim dress. I also share my real reaction to when a piece in my closet I loved no longer fit, and the work I had to put into it to make it work for my lifestyle. 

I talk with Malkie Knopfler, a comedian and entertainer, about her career. She tells us about her first gig, and quitting her first job with absolutely no plan. She also share the process of finding her voice in Kosher media and what she hopes to accomplish with the movies she makes.

Rachel Tuchman, LMHC and I continue a winter long series on mental health with a discussion on grief. We talk about why grief belongs in the context of a mental health conversation, what happens in our heads when a public figure goes through a loss, the problems with the five stages of grief, spiritual bypassing and the place of religion in grief and grieving.
