Why is diet culture still such an issue (and how can we break away from it)?

Why is diet culture still such a thing? And more importantly—how do we break away from it?

 

In this week's episode Sami and Ami sit down with Hailey Grandchamp, founder of WOAT – Women of All Terrain – to unpack the toxic roots of diet culture and the insidious ways it still shows up in our lives today. From early Hollywood ideals to the ‘90s supermodel era and today’s #WhatIEatInADay culture, we explore how unrealistic beauty standards have shaped our relationships with food, fitness, and our bodies for generations.

Hailey shares her personal story of recovering from years of restriction and body shame—starting from her time as a young gymnast to becoming a powerhouse coach helping over 700 women rediscover strength, confidence, and joy through movement and reconnection, not restriction.

We talk about:

• The real origins of diet culture (spoiler: it’s not about health)

• The billion-dollar industry that profits off your shame

• Social media’s role in reinforcing toxic messages—and how to resist

• What it means to actually heal your relationship with your body
