Vic is sharing advice on her most passionate topic: helping women find real peace with their bodies and food! Based on her own lived struggles and everything she’s learned while studying to become an intuitive eating counselor, she tackles your biggest questions on navigating triggering comments about weight, why old body-image issues can resurface, how to stay grounded when everyone around you is on GLP-1s, dealing with family pressure around “health,” understanding food noise, and explaining your story to a partner who’s never been through it. This episode is packed with compassion, perspective shifts, and the kind of encouragement Vic wishes she could give every woman face-to-face: you’re not alone, your body isn’t the problem, and you deserve a life that feels peaceful and free. Tune in to feel supported, validated, and reminded to stay true to what works for you!

Victoria sits down with licensed psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author Meg Josephson, whose new book Are You Mad at Me? is helping people-pleasers everywhere unlearn the patterns keeping them stuck.

Meg shares practical, therapeutic tools to help you regulate your emotions, set boundaries without guilt, and stop overexplaining yourself to be understood using some of Vic’s recent personal experiences as a guide. Tune in to finally understand your people-pleasing tendencies and start rewriting the story.
