Food Rules Are Made to Be Broken

In this episode, we’re breaking down where our food rules really came from, and surprise, it’s not your lack of willpower. Diet culture has roots in racism, colonialism, patriarchy, capitalism, and centuries of body control. When you understand that history, it becomes so much easier to see why these rules feel so ingrained… and why none of it was ever personal. We talk about how thinness became tied to “morality,” how body ideals were used to uphold white supremacy, how queer folks have been shaped by these rules, and how the wellness world is basically diet culture in new branding.  If you’re ready to unlearn the rules you never asked for, this one’s for you. ✨ Tarot pull of the week: Queen of Wands ✨ Journal prompts: What food rules have I enforced on myself throughout my life and where did I learn them from?
