The Hidden Triggers Behind Restrictive Eating (#19)
In this eye-opening episode, Kinesiologist Gabe and Registered Dietitian Olivia sit down with Brooklyn Bezzant, a Registered Dietitian who discovered firsthand how the pursuit of control through food restriction can be destructive. They discuss many different reasons why people can become restrictive in their eating - how childhood food rules can create lifelong food struggles, how social media plays a major role, why diets can make you feel more in "control" of your life, and so much more. This episode is perfect for anyone who thinks about food more than they'd like to admit, parents wondering how to raise kids with healthy food relationships, and anyone who's ever felt like their pursuit of health has taken over their happiness.

Do We Really Need 10,000 Steps? (#17)
Do you really need to hit 10,000 steps every day to be healthy? In this eye-opening episode, registered dietitian Olivia and fitness expert Gabe dive deep into the surprising origins of the 10,000 steps recommendation - spoiler alert: it wasn't based on science at all!
Discover how this arbitrary number came from a 1960s Japanese marketing campaign for a pedometer called "Manko-kei" (literally "10,000 steps meter") and why fitness trackers might actually be doing more harm than good. From creating unhealthy obsessions to promoting disordered eating behaviors, we explore the dark side of step counting and share practical alternatives for staying active without the stress.
Learn why your health isn't measured in steps, calories, or any single metric - and get actionable tips for building a healthier relationship with movement that focuses on how you feel, not what your watch says.
