Movement & Self-Worth vs Diet Culture (feat. Katie Bramlett)
Manage episode 431570107 series 3421182
Do you constantly put pressure on yourself to look a certain way, or weigh a certain weight? Are you willing to do anything just to lose weight while ignoring how your body and mind feel? What if we told you that isn’t the best way to honor yourself and it isn’t even the best way to reach that goal! Tune in today to understand a different perspective around your activity, self worth and the options available to you.
This week Jenn is joined by CEO and Co-Founder of WeShape, Katie Bramlett. After years of having a successful company, Katie couldn’t get aligned with what they were promoting, so she decided to take it in a different direction, creating WeShape. Her new business focuses on movement and self worth instead of diet culture. In this episode, she talks about what diet culture tells us about our self worth, and how someone can start finding body liberation. She discusses how to connect with your body to determine what movement is in alignment for you, and how to honor yourself along your fitness journey. Tune in to learn how to determine your individualized fitness journey.
The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.
IN THIS EPISODE:
- [5:14] What is Katie’s background and how did she get started with WeShape?
- [10:22] What are some indications that diet culture is influencing our thinking?
- [12:32] What does diet culture tell us about self worth?
- [17:10] How does Katie define self worth?
- [23:20] Where can someone find body liberation?
- [26:55] How can you untangle the movement from the desire to change your body?
- [28:29] How does self betrayal play into our typical diet culture approach to working out?
- [31:00] How does WeShape work through their four pillars?
- [36:08] Katie shares her final thoughts around self worth and movement.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Learning to understand what your body needs, what feels good in your body, and what is the right type of movement for you, is so important, as everyone is different and no one fitness routine is right for everyone.
- Get curious with yourself, start asking yourself hard questions to uncover what you want as an individual. Ask yourself if you are living for you or for someone else’s version of what they think you should be?
- It has been ingrained in us that our value is based on our appearance, however that doesn’t have to be your story. You can find your self worth in the ability to express your most authentic self, regardless of other people’s opinions. Your weight does not equate your worth.
QUOTES:
- [7:14] “When we look at the data and science around diets, around weight loss and weight gain, and yo yo dieting, we often see that they don’t work, and people often gain the weight, if not more, back. I have a theory and belief it’s because people are using that vehicle to validate their self worth, and that work is done outside of weight loss.” - Katie Bramlett
- “I have a theory that people are using that vehicle (weight loss and diets) to validate their self-worth.” - Katie Bramlett
- “I’m not saying weight loss is bad. I’m saying when we lead with that, the fruits of that effort are often short-lived.” - Katie Bramlett
- “What we’re really looking for is this self-worth piece and we think that that’s connected to this body.” - Jenn Trepeck
- [17:12] “For me, I define self worth as the ability to express my most authentic self, regardless of other people’s opinions.” - Katie Bramlett
- [36:07] “I just want to offer kindness to everybody because in a lot of ways this was normalized for all of us, and so getting more critical and more judgemental to yourself or participating in it or being in it is not going to help, so kindness can go far and we have choices.” - Katie Bramlett
