🥛 Proteinification, Pilates, Glucose Monitors & The Wellness Trends That Shaped 2025

In this episode, Leah's reflection on 6 wellness trends that shaped 2025.

She covers:

• GLP-1s and the normalization of thinness at all costs
• Increased body monitoring— Oura Rings, Glucose Monitors, & Apple Watches— & how this might impact intuitive eating
• Pilates culture: the matching sets, the "toned but not too muscular" promise, & the elitist, weight stigmatizing undertones
• The pros & the cons of our cultural obsession with steps
