About this episode

This episode features a conversation with registered dietitian Kylie Sakaida about the emotional complexities of eating and our relationship with food.

This week at ease, we’re joined by registered dietitian Kylie Sakaida for a gentle, honest, and deeply relatable conversation about our relationship with food. From food anxiety to bloating, diet culture to self-trust, we explore why eating can feel so emotionally complicated in a world full of rules, noise, and pressure. Kylie helps us reframe nourishment not as perfection, but as curiosity, flexibility, and care. No matter where you’re at in your relationship with food, your body, or “healthy eating,” this episode invites you to approach it all with a little more ease. Enjoy!
