In this powerful episode of The Being Method Podcast, MJ is joined by integrative nutritionist and anti-diet advocate Maya Eid for a heart-opening conversation about what it really means to escape the grip of diet culture.

Together, they explore:

  • Why so many of us internalize harmful beliefs about food, weight, and worthiness
  • The physiological and psychological impacts of chronic dieting
  • How breathwork and somatic tools can help reconnect us to the body’s natural cues
  • Maya’s personal journey of healing her relationship with food and body image
  • Practical steps for unlearning diet culture and building self-trust around eating
  • How the nervous system plays a role in hunger, cravings, and safety

This is a must-listen for anyone ready to shift from control to connection—and begin nourishing themselves from a place of true embodiment, not shame.

✨ Whether you're just starting to question diet culture or deep into your unlearning, this episode will meet you with compassion and science.
