Let’s talk about convenience food – the frozen meals, the microwave rice, the jars of sauce you throw into a pan when you're too tired to think.

There’s so much judgement around these foods. They're often labelled as lazy, unhealthy, or 'not real cooking', but is that really fair?

In this episode, I am breaking down the stigma around convenience food and exploring how it can actually support your intuitive eating journey.

From saving your sanity on chaotic evenings to helping you stay fed during tough times, convenience food has its place, and it deserves some respect!

I’ll chat through the pros and cons, the classist nonsense that often gets tangled up in these conversations, and how to use convenience food in a way that feels intuitive and guilt-free.

Spoiler: you're allowed to eat the ready meal *and* be a grown adult who cares about their wellbeing.

What I cover in this episode:

  • Why convenience food gets a bad reputation
  • How diet culture and classism influence our food choices
  • The actual benefits of using convenience options
  • How to tune into what works for you without guilt or shame
  • A gentle challenge to embrace convenience without apology

Also, stick around to the end to hear me talk about my new course - Confident Conversations With Your Doctor - and how you can get it at the cheapest price if you leap in right now.
