TMHS 306: Coconuts, Kettlebells, & Breaking The Wagon Mentality - With Guest Noelle Tarr

Changing the conversation around diet is no easy feat. Our society is appearance-obsessed, always looking for the next quick fix, and constantly immersed in a toxic diet culture. Too many people fall prey to this system, but there’s a better, more-sustainable approach. For many of us, the solution to finding peace with food isn’t found in the newest diet book or achieving a certain number on the scale—it lies in our mindset. Health is a life-long journey, and a process that is meant to be enjoyed. On today’s show, Noelle Tarr of Coconuts and Kettlebells is here to share her experience with overcoming diet culture and finding balance in a health-centered approach. Her story is full of insight about how to shift the paradigm around food and exercise, finding your worth, and what it truly means to be healthy. In this episode you’ll discover: The importance of shifting your focus away from the number on the scale. Why the concept of “falling off the wagon” is toxic for our well-being. How to stop thinking of health as a destination. Why it’s so important to stop giving food morality. How health and fitness marketing often perpetuates a cycle of shame. The role of mental and emotional health in weight loss. What it means to set minimums for your macros. How to stop restricting and start creating a diet plan that works for you. The four foods that could potentially be problematic for your body. Why focusing on a goal weight is often arbitrary (and unsustainable!) How undereating can stop you from reaching your goals. The importance of managing stress. How cortisol can contribute to weight gain and fat storage. Why evaluating calories in/calories doesn’t always work. Noelle’s three favorite recipes from her book.
