Food, Judgment, and the Stories We Tell Ourselves

Food is personal, political, cultural, emotional — and sometimes, it’s just coffee. In this episode, I talk about vegan guilt, body positivity, public health, and why we judge ourselves (and each other) so harshly for what’s on our plates.

In this episode I’m talking about food — not recipes, not trends, but the judgment, guilt, labels, and morality we attach to what we eat. This episode starts with a simple confession: after years of plant‑based living, I went back to using dairy in my morning coffee. And the backlash I received says a lot about how we talk about food, bodies, and identity.

If you’ve ever been judged for what you eat (or don’t eat), struggled with food labels, or felt the pressure to be “perfectly” healthy, this episode offers a candid, unfiltered look at the messy, human side of food and the stories we attach to it.

If this spoke to you, be sure to “like” and share it over social with someone who’d appreciate the flavor …
