We Can Do Hard Things · What Is Intuitive Eating? Evelyn Tribole on Trusting Your Body · 16 Jan 2025

And what it's doing is scaring people. And with that fear, then you turn that inside. You don't trust yourself because of all these things that are happening. And I share with you, Glennon, having a healthy suspicion, you know, skepticism. I said to my patients, like, oh, I wish you would have had that when you started dieting, you know, but you didn't know any better.
And everyone gets all excited about the latest and greatest and so on.
Oh, we've not seen that. Oh, my gosh.
Wow. Wow.
I think it's a really good question, actually. And to me, it's not an issue that it's not working. It's an issue of you probably need support. If you're going through trauma, oh my gosh. In order to feel connected to the body, you need to be present and you need to feel safe. And when you're undergoing trauma therapy, you're often not in that place.
And so we might be using things like nourishment as self-care, kind of some scaffolding into some of the principles of intuitive eating. It's not that you can't access it. You just might need more support in doing so. That's what I would be looking at. And so if anyone at a pod squad is listening, it's like, oh my God, this sounds amazing. And yet I'm terrified.
Well, maybe it'd be helpful to, you know, to work with somebody in this, because if you have an eating disorder, for example, this would be, you need to be working with your treatment team in terms of working with intuitive eating eventually and so on. So-
You need a plan. Absolutely. You're in the nutrition rehabilitation phase. And by the way, I love that term because we know, you know, to me in that phase, an eating disorder is like a broken arm or a broken bone. And you need a cast. You need structure to support the healing. The goal is not to have the cast on for the rest of your life.
And when the sufficient amount of healing has gone on, you remove the cast and you're more into the freestyle aspect. And, you know, depending on the complexity, the more complex someone's situation is, you know, trauma history, eating disorder history or eating disorder, it's going to be complex to work through. It's workable. And I think, Glennon, you're a really good example of that.
You give hope to a lot of people out there thinking that they're beyond hope. It's a powerful message that you have after all these years to be in recovery. It's wonderful.
It is. Yeah. The book came out in 95. So we're looking at almost 30 years. It's just, it's wild. It's really wild. And I think because diet culture has gotten just so harmful, it's making our work even more needed. And so that's why I like to say that diet culture creates suffering. Intuitive eating is a path out of suffering. If you want out of that suffering, there's a way for you to do that.
You don't have to suffer.
And less willing to grind, you know, is the byproduct of your wisdom of all the years and these kinds of things. And I don't think anyone sets out to say, oh, and we want women to suffer with her. We're going to create diet culture. It's more insidious than that. And that's often why I like to use the term suffering because no one wants to argue about suffering.
You know, even if someone's not ready to get into intuitive eating, most will say, yeah, I am kind of tired of suffering. And so it kind of, you know, piques their interest in that possibility. But yeah, getting more into, you know, honest to gosh, it took, in your case, it was an eating disorder.
It sounds like in my case, it took a diagnosis of breast cancer and treatment to finally say, I am done with eating.
you know grinding staying up to three in the morning to get other things done for other people it's the first time in my life I don't feel guilty saying no and it's almost embarrassing to say that but it's yeah I'm not willing to do that anymore it's like yeah the when you learn to say yes to yourself then you the next step is you learn to say no to other people yes and then you're just a big yes no machine and then you're good and you're satisfied
It's what I'm doing after this. Yeah.
It's right next door. Sometimes I go out front, but next door I like. It's wrecking three to four today too. And it's looking pretty nice. Perfect. We'll have what she's having.
