Life After Diets Podcast
Hosted by Life After Diets
A reflective podcast where a psychotherapist and a coach explored the messy, emotional middle-ground of healing one's relationship with food after dieting.
This show was a deep dive into the psychological and somatic realities of long-term recovery from disordered eating. Rather than offering simple tips, the hosts used their own experiences as case studies to explore the nuanced emotional landscape after the initial 'all-in' phase. It tackled the anxiety, identity shifts, and lingering diet culture thoughts that persist long after the bingeing or restricting stops.
“Unlike many anti-diet shows focused on beginners, this podcast specialized in the complex 'messy middle' of recovery. Its signature was the hosts' radical vulnerability, blending professional credentials with candid, ongoing personal reflections that made the theoretical feel tangible and relatable.”
Who hosts this show
Life After Diets was a weekly podcast hosted by Sarah Dosanjh, a psychotherapist, and Stefanie Michele, a mindset and somatic coach. Drawing from both their professional and lived experiences with disordered eating, they delved into the complexities of recovery beyond the initial phase of quitting diets. The show provided a raw, vulnerable space for listeners navigating the emotional tangles of body image and food freedom. The podcast concluded in October 2025, with co-host Stefanie Michele launching a new solo show.
