In the past few days, we've been hit up by countless publications, podcasts, and influencers asking us to be on their platforms to do a podcast interview, host an IG live, or have a conversation on racism. Oftentimes, these requests come with a ridiculously tight turnaround, which feels really inconsiderate. We're human beings. We have lives. Believe it or not, we're actually busy. Also, there's a lot of emotional labor and trauma involved in being vulnerable and sharing our experiences with racism. PLUS! We've contributed to COUNTLESS articles (go to our press page) about inclusivity and social justice before it was trending. We've also done so. many. podcast episodes on these topics (check our BLM highlight for some of the most recent episodes). The work is out there. If you have looked at some of the work, and still want to collaborate, make an effort to be more mindful about how you reach out + what your asks are. In this week's episode, we go in on why we're frustrated and exhausted.

We all have food issues w/ Virginia Sole Smith
50:50
What’s one good book that you COULD. NOT. PUT DOWN. in 2019? For me, it was The Eating Instinct by journalist & author, Virgina Sole-Smith. In this book, Virginia visits kitchen tables around America to tell her own story, as well as the stories of women recovering from weight loss surgery, of people who eat only nine foods, of families with unlimited grocery budgets and those on food stamps. The book is a deep dive into how we all learn to eat in today’s toxic food culture. In today’s episode we discuss: how Virginia got into this work (it started when her newborn stopped eating) and how Virginia’s relationship with food evolved throughout the years. We also explore how social media has contributed to our heightened stress around food, how to navigate food struggles with kids, and things you can do to make sure you’re not projecting your own body image issues onto your children.

How to Navigate Comparing Yourself to Others w/ Marci Evans
46:16
Do you compare yourself with others? (Raises hand.) Our podcast guest this week, Marci Evans, spoke about social comparison theory at our annual nutrition conference, and it was hands down the most powerful presentation I have ever been to. Social comparison theory states that individuals determine their own social and personal worth based on how they stack up against others. In some cases, comparison can be helpful, but more often than not, it’s bad for our wellbeing. If you have ever compared your success, body image, relationship status, friendships or even living situation to anyone else (especially on social media), you HAVE to listen to this episode. Tune in to learn: Which personality types tend to be more prone to comparing (hint: people who are empaths), what happens to our brains when we make these cross-comparisons, and concrete things you can do to compare less…starting NOW (and for free).

This month’s episode is a special one. Why? Well, today marks our 6 year Food Heaven Anniversary!! We can’t believe it’s already been 6 years! Aside from our anniversary, this month is also extra special since Jess and I are June babies, and actually have our birthdays 1 day apart (June 29th & 30th!) It’s pretty surreal that 6 years have passed since we started Food Heaven, and so we thought it would be great to have this month’s episode be about lessons learned since starting our brand. We’ll be sharing the ups and downs we’ve experienced, and how all this stuff has been helpful in our growth and development. Check out the full post here:
