“ I love how you incorporate your lived experiences into your message. Thank you for challenging societal norms with this podcast when some of us don’t feel brave (or qualified!) to do so! Keep it up!
“ This podcast challenges the way you think about the world, food, health and being a woman. Listen and learn – you won’t regret it!

“ Real talk! I appreciate the real talk and loving kindness she offers as she pushes hard against the deeply painful lies we have been sold.
“ I love Nadia’s direct approach to dismantling diet culture, such an educating podcast.
