Meet the Body Peace & Food Freedom Journaling Guide: Your toolkit for leaving the heavy baggage of diet culture on the shore. Through gentle body awareness and intuitive eating practices, you’ll learn to take up space and finally feel free to just be in your skin—no side of guilt included.
You deserve to head to the lake without the side of guilt or the pressure to shrink. By practicing body neutrality, you can stop the diet industry from profiting off your insecurities and start a practice of honesty that helps you feel safe in your skin again.
truth be told
You can’t expect to find peace in your skin if you are still following the rules of an industry that profits off you feeling like you aren’t enough.
Putting down the heavy baggage of diet culture doesn’t happen overnight—it’s a practice that happens in the quiet moments of honesty with yourself. This guide is your invitation to leave those "rules" on the shore and dive into a life where you honour your hunger, unlearn the "shoulds," and move toward body neutrality. Your body is a worthy vessel that carries you through life; it doesn't have to be "beautiful" to deserve your respect and care.

Meet Julie B.
Hi, I’m Julie—a fierce, heart-led social worker and anti-diet therapist. I created this guide because I know diet culture is a scam that profits off us feeling like we aren't enough. My trauma-informed practice is grounded in the messy reality of healing, helping you unlearn "rules" that were never yours so you can finally feel safe in your own skin.
When I’m not supporting clients in unbuckling the weight of diet culture, you can find me swimming laps or at the pottery studio. I am dedicated to helping people reclaim their energy from body criticism, reminding my community that our bodies are worthy vessels that don't have to be "beautiful" to deserve respect and care.
Life is meant to be lived,
not spent trying to disappear.
Sometimes you just need a little help unlearning the rules that keep you from enjoying the water. Your practice of body peace starts here.
