Food for Thought (Literally): How Nutrition Impacts Anxiety

Can what you eat really help ease your mind? In this episode, I dig into the science behind how certain foods and beverages can affect your mental health — especially when it comes to anxiety. I’ll walk you through 9 research-backed foods that have been shown to ease anxious feelings, shout-out the Mediterranean diet (for good reason!), and even unpack why a traditional Indian diet can be so nourishing when prepared the right way. Healing spices like turmeric are amazing for your gut (and your gut is more connected to your brain than you might think).This episode is based on trusted sources, including a Healthline article written by registered dietitian Brianna Elliott and medically reviewed by Jerlyn Jones, MS, MPA, RDN, LD, CLT, as well as research adapted from a Harvard Health Blog post by Eva Selhub, MD.If you're curious about how your nutrition and mental health go hand in hand, this one's for you!

Ah love bombing and breadcrumbing - two common terms we hear a LOT but what does it really mean? Is this something you've experienced in your romantic relationships or even friendships?

I talk about how these behaviours show up in relationships, why they're so harmful, and how to protect yourself from falling into these patterns.If you're looking for a little extra guidance, you can learn more in Dr. Ramani Durvasula's book "It's Not You: Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic People."

Why does beauty take up so much mental space, especially for women? How can we put less emphasis on how we look, while still celebrating our own inherent beauty?While we can't definitively answer these Qs, talking about them feels vulnerable and cathartic.

In this vulnerable convo, Anne explains her relationship with sexuality, how Katie completely surprised her, and how she feels about labelling herself. Then Katie joins in to tell us about meeting Anne for the first time, making her move (aka MOVES plural lol), and her experience as a gay woman being someone's first girlfriend.We truly can't thank Anne and Katie enough for having this conversation with us. This is a story about what happens when you stay open to love and follow your intuition. As Anne says in the episode: Love can never be wrong.Links from this episode's ICYMI:Keara Graves x Yasmin Benoit interview on asexualityGayTimes article by Monty BenningAdvertising Inquiries: & Opt-Out:
