126: Truce with Food® w/ Ali Shapiro
I just adore this conversation that I had with Ali Shapiro about the process of healing, redefining health, and making a truce with food. Ali is a very bright light helping to lead women out of diet dogma and back to themselves.
In this episode, Ali and I discuss:
- Option C, which is giving yourself permission to get to know yourself and how you relate to the world around you.
- Self-criticism vs Self-awareness
- The cost of relying on the outside world to heal you.
- What it means to have agency with your body
… and so much more!
Have a listen and let me know your thoughts!

More about today’s guest:
Ali is the founder of Truce with Food®, host of the top-ranked podcast Insatiable, a holistic nutritionist, integrated health coach and rebel with a serious cause. She’s academically, practically, and empathetically aware of how the medical system, diet culture and body positivity movements all have their own flavor of crazy. She created her Truce with Food method while in graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania where she earned her Masters in Organizational Dynamics, which is like getting an MBA in the change process, where she drew from her decade plus of working with real life clients and her own personal healing journey from having cancer as a teenager.
