Why does body image get worse on vacation? In this episode, Aimee explores the psychology of body image on vacation and explains why so many people struggle with feeling bigger, more self-conscious, or uncomfortable in their bodies while traveling. She breaks down the science of body perception, including why your brain’s view of your appearance can shift so quickly and how factors like bloating, water retention, alcohol, disrupted routines, mirrors, social comparison, and vacation photos can intensify body image anxiety. If you’ve ever felt insecure in a bathing suit, hated the way you looked in pictures, or felt frustrated by vacation weight gain fears, this episode offers compassionate insight and practical perspective to help you feel less alone and more at ease in your body while traveling.

Happy eating.

The weather is getting hotter, and your next vacation is on the horizon. Maybe you're planning something involving bikinis or swim trunks. And while that sounds like a lot of fun, you're also feeling a bit nervous about how you look in a bathing suit. Or, maybe you feel a general sense of body anxiety around wearing shorts and tank tops.

It's the time of year that predatory fitness and wellness coaches are ready to swoop in to sell you the ultimate solution to your body dissatisfaction: the Six Week Shred.

If you've ever been tempted to lock in for several weeks because a program promised insane results, or maybe you do a crash diet every year before vacation, this podcast will cover what's really going on.

Before you sign up for any program that promises "30 POUNDS In 30 DAYS," be sure you can confidently answer the two main questions I pose in this episode. Chances are doing what you've always done and expecting this to be the year you're finally going to love your body is a teeny weeny bit of a fantasy.

Hey friends! We're back for a second week talking about cravings and how to manage them.

And if you know anything about behavior change, you already know you're not going to hear anything about willpower or discipline here.

But managing cravings and emotional eating does require the willingness to be uncomfortable and tapping into your courage to change.

In this episode, I talk about why cravings can feel so intense and what to do when food urges seem out of control. I explain how cravings are created in the brain, why willpower alone usually is not enough, and how self-compassion can help you change your eating patterns without shame. I also share the practice of urge surfing, a mindfulness-based tool that helps you pause, observe cravings, and let them pass without automatically acting on them. We explore the role of dopamine, emotional eating, food cues, and neuroplasticity, and I explain why you are not broken if food feels harder for you than it seems for other people.

This episode is for anyone struggling with cravings, secret eating, or feeling powerless around food and wanting a more compassionate, sustainable approach to nutrition and behavior change.
