Welcome back to Rebuilding Trust With Your Body! In this powerful episode, Katy gets real about the fear and shame that often come up when you notice weight gain—especially if you’re doing the brave work of walking away from dieting.

This isn’t about toxic positivity or ignoring reality. It’s about compassion, curiosity, and understanding the truth: you’re not failing… you’re feeling. And that’s a crucial part of healing.

Whether you’ve been triggered by the scale, your jeans feeling tight, or the endless parade of “SkinnyTok,” this conversation will help you ground yourself in truth and navigate the discomfort with clarity.

We Discuss:

• Why body changes are normal (and often healing)
  
• The illusion of control that dieting promises—and why it backfires
  
• How to identify the story you’re telling yourself about your weight
  
• Tools to ride the wave of body image panic without spiraling
  
• Why choosing not to diet is one of the bravest acts of self-care
