| 11 Mar 2022 | How to Actually Support Someone with IBS | 00:56:21 | |
Today's episode is really unique because we're talking about how to support someone with IBS and how to not actually support someone with IBS. In the States alone 10-15% of the population suffer from IBS and twice as many women have it as men. Gastrointestinal issues are becoming increasingly commonplace, and there still remains little support and resources for those who are suffering and for their loved ones. In today’s episode, I am talking to Christine, an amazing woman and IBS advocate who has dealt with her diagnosis since 2007. During our conversation, Christine shares her own experience with IBS. She talks about ways to cope emotionally with IBS and seek support, dealing with blame and unsolicited advice, and how you can actually support someone with IBS. In this episode, we cover:

| 17 Mar 2023 | Is self-sabotage ruining your gut and IBS? | 00:31:00 | |
Self-sabotage means getting in the way of your own success or progress, or working against yourself. This can also look like self-harm but doesn’t always involve causing harm to yourself. It often looks like doing things that you know don’t work for your body or align with your goals, or even failing to take action towards your goals. Let's talk dive deeper into what self sabotage is, why it isn't your fault, and why you may be hesitant to seek out help.
In this episode, we cover: No shame if you self sabotage [3:33]

| 06 May 2022 | Why Weight Loss Isn’t Always The Solution | 00:46:17 | |
One aspect of IBS that isn’t often talked about is weight gain and weight loss. In general, resources and support for weight management while dealing with IBS is about as non-existent as support for IBS in mainstream healthcare. That doesn’t mean the help doesn’t exist, it’s just harder to find. However, today’s guest is an expert in helping her clients approach healthcare from a weight-neutral perspective while dealing with a digestive disorder. In today’s episode, I am talking to Shana Spence, a fellow registered dietician nutritionist based in New York. Shawna is passionate about spreading the word on food freedom, nondiet approaches, and Health at Every Size health care. During our conversation, Shana talks about how to advocate for higher quality healthcare for yourself, the issue with stigmatizing language around weight in healthcare, and what Health at Every Size Matters. In this episode, we cover:

| 25 Feb 2022 | Making Peace with Food When It Feels Like the Enemy | 00:56:43 | |
When it comes down to eating disorders and disordered eating, there's a lot of confusion around what that actually means. Oftentimes people think they know what eating disorders are, and often approach it from a black and white perspective, when in reality it’s actually a spectrum. When we can approach diet as a spectrum, we realize that we can learn to make peace with food. In today’s episode I am talking to Dylan Murphy, a registered dietician and founder of Free Method Nutrition, who specializes in disordered eating and proper nutrition. Her philosophy aims to help her clients make peace with food. Dylan knows it can be overwhelming to establish a healthy relationship with food, and is on a mission to help women’s health! During our conversation Dylan shares how she got into private practice and what fuels her passion for dietetics. She talks about labeling foods and diet as good or bad, what it looks like to make peace with food and how to change your language around food rather than fearing it. In this episode, we cover:

Digestive diseases and disorders are increasingly becoming commonplace in the world. Things like GERD, Celiac, Crohn’s and the ever so common IBS are issues where the gastrointestinal system is dealing with inflammation or bacterial overgrowth.

In today’s episode I am talking to Elyse Resch, a RDN and a nutrition therapist in private practice in Beverly Hills with over thirty-seven years of experience. She helps her client navigate restrictive eating patterns and practice more mindful eating habits. During our conversation Elyse shares her own experience with restrictive eating, infertility and retraining her mindset about food and nutrition. She talks about the intuitive eating framework, misconceptions about this practice, why nourishing your body means you’re nourishing your brain and the role diet culture plays in food preference.

| 18 Mar 2022 | The Overlap of PCOS and Digestion | 00:40:05 | |
PCOS or Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition in which the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of male sex hormones resulting in numerous small cysts (fluid-filled sacs) that form in the ovaries. In America alone around 6-12% of the female population are formally diagnosed, but with diagnosis rates taking time and often being overlooked there are many more out there who suffer. PCOS not only impacts a woman’s fertility it also has adverse effects on weight gain, hair growth and overall mental health. In today’s episode I am talking to Cory Ruth,a Registered Dietitian, fellow PCOS Cyster, and women's health expert. She works specifically with women to help them better understand the powerful connection between the female body systems and optimal health. During our conversation Cory shares why the medical world needs more people to advocate for diet and PCOS.

| 21 Oct 2022 | Will my IBS ever go away? | 00:15:26 | |
The short answer is not really, but naturally, there is a longer, more complex answer. We all know that IBS is a very complex disorder, and its pathological cause is not known which makes it harder to treat. However, despite there not being one clear path of treatment, there are different ways to help patients facing this chronic gut issue. During this episode, I explain why IBS is hard to treat, the importance of creating a diverse gut microbiome, and encouraging healthy motility of your gut. In this episode, we cover:

| 13 May 2022 | The Overlap of Disordered Eating, Eating Disorders & IBS | 00:55:47 | |
There is a complex relationship between disordered eating, eating disorders and digestive disorders. It is important that these conversations happen in the GI space, and as health care providers we need to be cautious of how we are helping patients who are navigating care in this space, to prevent disordered eating patterns that can harm them further. In today’s episode we have special guest Beth Rosen, a non diet registered dietitian specializing in GI nutrition and disordered eating. During our conversation Beth shares how her own experience with IBS inspired her to get into the field of GI and dietetics.

| 03 Jun 2022 | IBS Healthcare from a GI Provider’s Point of View | 00:59:47 | |
Within the functional space of IBS, doctors visits tend to be really tense, and they tend to be filled with more negativity than positivity for patients and their experiences.One really big point of concern within the IBS community is the the relationship between GI provider and patient when dealing with digestive disorders like IBS and IBD. Getting help seems like a massive task, and accessing professional help and expert resources seems more impossible than winning the lottery. In today’s episode, my guest Jennifer Fijor, is a nurse practitioner who works in the GI space and is passionate about breaking down barriers between patients and gut specialists. During our conversation Jennifer shares why there might have been tense relationships in the past with certain providers, some ways that you can advocate for better care yourself and how to best prepare for appointments to get the most out of your time.

| 27 May 2022 | The IBS & IBD Overlap | 00:42:16 | |
Oftentimes the word IBS and IBD are thrown out there interchangeably with no real context or understanding. In reality, while there are many similarities between the two, there are also differences, and this extends to the way IBS and IBD are treated. In today’s episode, I am talking to Neha Shah, a registered dietician, a certified nutrition support clinician, and a certified health education specialist that has been specializing in gastroenterology, gastrointestinal and liver health for the past 15 years.
