There’s so much conversation about bodies that it’s easy to forget they’re just one part of a whole life.
Most days, they’re the least interesting thing about a person.

I’m a few weeks out from a hysterectomy, and it’s one of those experiences that reminds you how many parts of women’s health we don’t really talk about. Hormonal changes, surgical recovery, shifts in energy — all of it affects how you move through your day.

Some days I feel normal, and other days my body makes it clear that I need to slow down. That’s not a setback. It’s biology doing what biology does.

In my work, I see how big transitions — hormonal shifts, surgeries, stress, holidays — can make eating and self-care feel harder. Not because anything is “wrong,” but because routines change, structure drops, and your body asks for something different than usual.

If you’re in one of those seasons too, here’s a reminder:
You don’t have to match your old pace.
Rest is still progress.
And finding a new rhythm is part of healing, not a sign you’re falling behind.

Somewhere along the way, the message became that taking care of a body has to look one specific way — perfect food choices, perfect workouts, perfect routines.

But the reality is simpler:

A body doesn’t need perfection to feel better.
It needs less fighting and more support.

For some people, that means loosening rigid food rules.
For others, it means rebuilding strength.
And sometimes it’s as basic as eating enough and moving in ways that don’t feel punishing.

And yes — eating for pleasure counts.
Satisfaction is part of nutrition, not the opposite of it.
Food is meant to help a body feel supported and lived-in, not controlled.

Many people feel torn between wanting reliable nutrition support and wanting to avoid anything that feels rigid or extreme.
There is a middle space — a steady, sustainable one.

Nutrition that fits real life.
Strength without obsession.
A relationship with food grounded in nourishment, satisfaction, and trust.

That middle ground is possible, and it’s where real change actually happens.

As we head into Thanksgiving week, just a quick reminder:
• Rest is legitimate.
• Small routines are enough.
• Nourishment isn’t just food — it’s structure, boundaries, and whatever keeps you steady.

This week brings different things up for different people. There’s no “right” way to feel about the holiday, the food, or the expectations that come with it.

You don’t have to over-explain yourself.
You don’t have to engage in food or body talk.
You don’t have to make up for anything later.

Take what you need from the week and leave the rest.

Bodies change — through seasons, stress, and life.
That’s not a problem to fix, it’s information to work with.

My approach to nutrition and movement is always centered on care, curiosity, and respect — not control.

Sometimes that means eating more often, resting longer, or moving in ways that feel good instead of punishing.
It’s about building connection with your body, not trying to outsmart it.

Had the opportunity this week to be interviewed by Drew Peters from WCSH6 in Portland for Eating Disorders Awareness Week. A reminder that you never truly know who may be struggling with an eating disorder or disordered eating, so let’s be mindful and kind when talking about body size and food. And most importantly—100% recovery is possible!
