The F*ck it Diet Radio

Back from the dead! I’ve decided to share this episode to my old anti-diet feed as well as my new podcast “Problematic,” since it has some crossover content… If you wanna find my new stuff, or the video version of this episode, you can find it at carolinedooner.substack.com. If you’re still struggling with your relationship with food, make sure to read the book The F*ck It Diet!!! Find Isabel here: Her Website Her Instagram Her Twitter (aka Instagram for Men!)

Big update! The chaos is ending. Listen to this episode’s intro for the explanation. This podcast is about to become an archive of old episodes, dedicated to The F*ck It Diet. But before it ends, I need one more chaotic moment: having to repost this episode that I already posted last month. Why? After all of that, trying to merge my old podcast into substack, I decided instead, to “split” my podcasts again, and leave The F*ck It (Diet) Podcast as it’s own, standalone archive, that’s specific to the food healing journey. This way, it will better be able to support new people who are reading the book, or just finding the information for the first time. But because I had the podcast merged for a few months over on substack, there were a few episodes that were posted on the new substack feed, that were not posted on the old feed. My episode with Irene on our nervous systems is one of them, so now that I’ve “split” the podcasts, it has to be “reposted” over here again, if I want it to be on this feed. And, I think this episode is really relevant to “The Emotional Part” of The F*ck It Diet. So I want it to be here! You may have already listened to my conversation with Irene back when I posted it last month! If that’s the case, you can just listen to my new intro where I explain why I’m ending this podcast, and starting fresh somewhere else. My new podcast will be over at carolinedooner.substack.com (there, you can find the actual podcast link listings. So if you want to find my new podcast on spotify or apple, you’re going to have to separately follow me over there!) Also! If you’ve listened to my conversation with Irene already, she is currently enrolling her yearly program Smart Body, Smart Mind through September 19th, 2022. If you’ve been wanting to go deep on nervous system and trauma work, make sure to check it out. To get some of her trainings for free, check out her free video series (it’s like 2 hours worth of video lessons!). My Conversation with Irene Today I am sharing my conversation with Irene Lyon, a trauma expert, educator, and trained somatic practitioner. We talk about some of the basics of the nervous system, the body holding onto trauma, and some myths and misconceptions about how healing works. If you’ve read The F*ck It Diet or Tired as F*ck, you know how passionate I am about this method of healing, even though… I have been thinking about how much I should be getting back into focusing on it… And, as I say at the end of the episode, I actually just now am back into focusing on it. I just took Irene’s 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up. And I love it all so much, that I am now an affiliate for it. What that means is, if you use my link for her program, and sign up, I will get a commission. As I mentioned above, Irene is currently enrolling her yearly program Smart Body, Smart Mind through September 19th, 2022. If you’ve been wanting to go deep on nervous system work, make sure to check it out!

Coming to you a day late (my Tuesday got filled with my friend visiting and then two instagram sagas) and $1034 short (you know, the catfish scam saga), with a new episode! My podcast episodes are usually going to be available for everyone, not just paid substack subscribers, and you can listen on substack, or on the major podcast player apps: aka, wherever you listen to podcasts. Today I am sharing my conversation with Irene Lyon, a trauma expert, educator, and trained somatic practitioner.

Sorry for that epic podcast delay… again. I didn’t know what I was doing with moving my podcast hosting, so it delayed everything a lot. Today I’m sharing my conversation with Seerut Chawla. (We recorded back at the beginning of April! Agh!) We talk about her brief foray into cancelling someone on the internet, her change of heart, and both of our experiences waking up to the insanity and cult dynamics of cancel culture… It’s a good one! Find Seerut’s instagram, twitter, and website. Housekeeping: ALSO! FINALLY! I’ve figured out how to transfer my podcast to my newsletter on substack, and to have it feed out to the established listings on apple, spotify, googs, etc… what that means is you can keep listening to it on a regular podcast player app, and/or you can sign up for my newsletter on substack and get the new podcast episodes send straight to your email (among other things.) Go to “manage your subscription” on substack, and add the podcast feed for the podcast app of your choice. If you are a paying subscriber, you can also add your unique paid podcast feed to apple, and maybe other players (not sure that it works on spotify) and you’ll also be able to access the audio versions of paid posts on that feed, as well as any rare premium episodes. Upcoming schedule for episode and posts: Right now, I’ll probably release an actual podcast episode, like this, once a month. But maybe more. But I will be releasing new content, on this newsletter, once a week. Every week I will alternate free and paid content. This week is free. Next week will be a paid post (another deleted chapter from Tired as F*ck) and the following week will be another free post (the story of the one time where I accidentally spear headed an internet pile-on), and on and on alternating like that: free, paid, free, paid. THANKS! BYE! HAPPY BELATED MEMORIAL DAY AND/OR HAPPY TUESDAY Get full access to Problematic at carolinedooner.substack.com/subscribe

Note: This episode was actually recorded for my other podcast, Problematic. But I originally recorded the conversation when, for a short time, my podcasts were merged.

We talk about her brief foray into cancelling someone on the internet, her change of heart, and both of our experiences waking up to the insanity and cult dynamics of cancel culture… It’s a good one!

Trying to make sure it’ll post my new episodes FROM substack TO the correct feed! If it works, I’ll be releasing my new ep with Seerut Chawla on Tuesday :-) Get full access to Problematic at carolinedooner.substack.com/subscribe

Today’s episode is a conversation with Lindsey Lockett, trauma educator and coach, and she tells her story of how she left Fundamentalist Christianity, the fallout in her body and mind of living so long in such a binary belief system, and how she found trauma healing and nervous system work. It’s an amazing story, and I can’t wait for you to hear it! Find Lindsey on instagram here Find Lindsey’s website here And find my substack here

Today I am sharing my conversation with Leslie Schilling, MA, RDN, CSCS, CEDRDS-S, where she talks about diet culture and purity culture in the church (and how is mirrors our culture at large!). We also chat about Gwen Shamblin, the infamous “Christian” cult leader, and the way the bible was (mis)interpreted. Though, today’s episode is from the perspective how to change the mindset in the church from a focus on purity, to one of love, acceptance, and “grace” (a word Leslie breaks down in the conversation!). This episode is for all people, regardless of your religion, because the parallels run so deep. And next episode will be a different conversation of leaving Fundamental Christianity and finding trauma healing.

Is the anti-diet world culty too? Yes. It can be. (Anything can be!) Therapist and Coach Catie Lynch and I unpack extremism in the anti-diet world, black and white thinking, “cancel” culture and mob mentality online, as well as what true healing from an eating disorder looks like beyond outrage. “Can we focus on actually creating the life that diet culture took from us, instead of spending the rest of our life angry at diet culture?” I also talk about microdosing, medical marijuana, restless leg syndrome, human design (we are both “projectors”), and MORE. Find Catie’s general account here, and business coaching account here. Also! My second book is out! You can read more about extremism and my restless legs in Tired as F*ck 🤣

Hello! Today’s episode is short and sweet… I’m starting off with a 10 minute audio-chapter from the audiobook of Tired as F*ck. And, that audio clip just so happens to be about anxiety, and what it’s like to be a person with a normal amygdala (aka, not a psychopath). Then, I go over the three different “categories” of anxiety you will deal with when healing your relationship with food and weight! This episode is brought to you by Tired as F*ck, coming out on February 8th! Read the beginning! Get your pre-order bonuses!

January 5th was the 10 year anniversary of The F*ck It Diet!!! (and my 34th birthday!) It’s not the ten year anniversary of the book… but of my actual journey on The F*ck It Diet. So, in celebration, I got on instagram live and read two excerpts from my new book Tired as F*ck, where I talk about what my TFID “epiphany,” and what the beginning of my actual journey looked like. THEN the next day, my computer broke, so I’m currently posting this from my new $126 backup chrome book while my macbook pro gets fixed. But in this episode, I’m sharing the clip from instagram live where I read those two excerpts!!! Tired as F*ck comes out in exactly one month! On February 8th!!! If you want to receive the rest of the excerpt where I share the beginning of my own f*ck it diet, pre-order Tired as F*ck, screenshot your proof of purchase, and then go to thefuckitdiet.com/fun and sign up for the pre-order bonuses!

Today’s conversation is with Africa Brooke!

In today’s episode, reporter Jessica DeFino explains how our skin works, and how beauty culture is actually damaging our skin health with skin “care” products. This is one of my favorite episodes on my podcast so far, (up there with my Laziness Does Not Exist episode from a year ago). Just like our relationship with food and diets, where we are led to believe we need diets, which leads to worse health and a worse relationship with food longterm… the same thing is true for our skin. Beauty companies have convinced us we need their products, but their products are disrupting our natural skin barrier and biome, and lead us to needing MORE of their products. Great for them. Not so great for us.
