Edita Birnkrant and Tracy Winston: The Horse Who Collapsed in the Street 37:03

“I could be walking in Central Park and come up on one of these horse and buggies. I don't think twice about it because I see it as part of the New York attraction. You know, you have the Statue of Liberty, you have Times Square, and you have these romantic horse and buggy things where people get married in the park and they ride these carriages. And tourists, they take these rides in Central Park. It's romantic, it's something beautiful to see. But I never thought for one second that these horses are abused.” – Tracy Winston, juror from Ryder’s trial New York City has a big, visible animal cruelty issue: horses forced to pull carriages, carrying heavy loads for long hours in all types of weather in the middle of chaotic traffic. Three years ago, a carriage horse named Ryder was a victim of this cruelty. He collapsed on a Manhattan street after being worked for hours in the summer heat. Two months later, he was euthanized. His story sparked global outrage. Ryder’s driver, Ian McKeever, was charged with animal cruelty The trial took place a few weeks ago, but McKeever was ultimately acquitted. This conversation is with Edita Birnkrant, the Executive Director of NYCLASS and Tracy Winston, one of the jurors from Ryder's trial. New York’s weak and outdated animal protection laws have not changed since Ryder died— and because of this, another avoidable death that occurred just a week after we recorded this interview. On August 5th, a horse named Lady died while pulling a carriage in Manhattan. This conversation is about accountability, about corruption and about what happens when justice fails the most vulnerable. It's too late for Ryder and Lady. But it is not too late to act. If you live in New York, please call your City Council members and tell them it’s time to bring Ryder’s Law, Intro 967, up for a vote and pass this vital bill to protect carriage horses from suffering and death on the city’s streets.

Sometimes the reason you’re not doing the thing to you need or want to do…is because you’ve made it way too complicated. I realized recently I’d turned a simple daily habit into a whole production — the “perfect” setup, the ideal conditions, all the steps to make it better — until it became so much work that I stopped doing it completely. In this episode, I’m sharing: The sneaky way I overcomplicated something I’d been doing for years How chasing “perfect” often kills our ability to show up at all The good/better/best framework I use with clients to strip things down to the minimum viable version How to create your own “do less” plan so you can actually follow through If doing less makes you feel uncomfortable—like you’re not doing enough—this episode will begin to change the way you think about making progress.

I just got back from 10 days in Switzerland and Italy—and let’s just say this was not a “protein and veggies” kind of trip. Think: Jet lag messing with my hunger Chocolate for “dinner” (more than once) Food noise cranking way up Learning to roll with tiny portions, weird mealtimes, and zero snacks Saying yes to gelato at 3 p.m. because it was the values-aligned choice This isn’t about “staying on track” while traveling. It’s about using skills when routines fall apart—and knowing the difference between actually being “off” and just being human.

Episode 238: Dieting is not a way of life with Mallary Tenore Tarpley 41:59

Most struggles with food and eating don’t come with a diagnosis. After all we're taught since birth that wanting to lose weight and eat healthy is good thing…right? But what if it’s not? What if the constant guilt, rules, and second-guessing aren’t just “part of being a woman”—but signs of a deeper struggle that most people never name? This week, I’m joined by University of Texas journalism professor and author Mallary Tenore Tarpley to talk about her memoir Slip —and the messy, quiet reality of disordered eating that lives in the space between full-blown illness and full recovery. Mallary shares what it was like to move from treatment for anorexia into what she calls the middle place: The part no one talks about. The part with fewer rules, but more doubt. Where you look fine… but don't always feel or behave fine. We get into: Why so many women are suffering without ever getting diagnosed The way our culture normalizes disordered eating through “wellness" What support looks like when you’re no longer acutely sick Why food noise isn’t always the problem—and what’s really underneath it What true recovery looks like day to day I am truly honored to have Mallary as a guest today and hope her story and this conversation help you feel seen and to know you aren’t alone. This is truly a must listen for every woman who has ever been on a diet, felt guilty for eating something “bad,” hated how their body looked or knows a woman who has….so that’s all of us 💗 Buy Slip Connect with Mallary Mallary Tenore Tarpley is a journalism and writing professor at the University of Texas at Austin’s Moody College of Communication and McCombs School of Business. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and The Dallas Morning News, among other publications. She is the recipient of a prestigious Alfred P. Sloan Foundation grant, which helped support her research and writing. Mallary graduated from Providence College and has a master’s of fine arts in nonfiction writing from Goucher College. She lives outside of Austin, Texas, with her husband and two children. Slip is her first book.

We spend so much time wishing we could go back and do things differently—talking to the past version of ourselves who didn’t know better. But what if there’s way more power in looking forward instead of backward? In this episode, I’m breaking down: Why thinking about your future self (not just your past) changes everything How to create a clear, concrete plan to support the “you” who’s just minutes away A simple framework to stop living on autopilot and start making choices that feel good now and later If you’ve ever felt stuck in regret or struggled to connect your actions today to the results you want tomorrow, this conversation will help you find a different way in.

Ever wish you could just not have cravings? That you could flip a switch and never think about chocolate, chips, or cookies again? I used to think that too. (I even ran a workshop called Conquer Cravings , no joke.) But here’s the thing: cravings aren’t a problem you need to fix. So if they're not a problem, then what are they? In this episode, I’m sharing: Why cravings are actually information about your body and mind A simple way to “work backwards” to uncover what your cravings are trying to tell you When cravings move from normal to something that needs more attention How rethinking cravings can take you out of that all-or-nothing mindset Connect with Jordana Find me on Instagram Sign up for my Monday newsletter with lots of nutrition, body image and mindset tips Schedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together Listen to more episodes of The Diet Diaries…

Ever feel like you’re stuck between two shitty choices? Like…either you diet yourself into misery to lose weight, or stay exactly where you are and but have to deal with the discomfort of being in a body you aren’t happy with? In this episode, I’m breaking down the idea that discomfort is inevitable—but you do get to choose which discomfort moves you closer to who you want to be and which one moves you further away. We’ll talk about: ✨ The sneaky ways “I’ll be happier when I’m thinner” thinking shows up—even when you know better ✨ Why eating cookies isn’t inherently “bad”—but sometimes the reason you’re eating them is ✨ A simple exercise (literally drawing a fork in the road) to get clear on which action is truly in alignment with your values And here's the link to the 5 day Food Behavior Blueprint!

You hear one expert say “eat more protein.” Another says “cut back on protein.” One promises food freedom in 30 days. Another says counting macros is the only way. So who the hell do you listen to? In this episode, I’m working to make sense of the chaos — in the wellness world and in the business coaching world — and sharing the exact questions I’ve been asking myself lately to tune out the noise and figure out who actually deserves my trust. Because it’s not just about what someone says — it’s how they say it, why they say it, and how it makes you feel. Inside What to look for (and what to run from) in coaches, content, and “solutions” The sneaky way urgency gets weaponized in wellness How to know if someone’s challenging you in a good way — or just making you feel like shit If you’ve ever felt confused, overwhelmed, or just… over it… when it comes to health advice, this one’s for you. Plus, a behind-the-scenes look at why I created the Food Behavior Blueprint — and how it’s different from everything else out there.

I recorded this one sitting in my kitchen, still practically crying, still processing—in real time. Because when the thing you’ve been planning for 18 months looks like it’s about to get rained out, being told “you can’t control the weather” feels more like a gut punch than helpful advice. This episode isn’t really about Ben’s Bar Mitzvahthough (ok, it’s a little about the Bar Mitzvah). It’s about what happens when we logically know we can’t control something—our weight, a craving, a body change in perimenopause—but that knowing does nothing to actually make us feel better. So what do you do when you feel totally powerless? That’s what this episode is about. ✏️ The list I wrote 💥 What to do with the griefof not having control ✅ And the unexpected outcome of writing down exactly what you can control—even when it changes absolutely nothing I love this episode and hope it connects with you!

We talk about: How to respond to that gut-punch judgment when you see yourself in a photo Why our first reaction isn’t the full story A simple question to ask before you even look at the picture Weddings, vacations, graduations, recitals, pool parties—photos are coming.

In this episode, I unpack a question someone asked me on Instagram— Do you struggle with weight gain? —and explore the nuanced, layered truth behind it after my answer on IG only glazed the surface. We’re talking about why weight gain isn’t always a bad thing but why it often feels bad, how biology, stress, life phases (hello, menopause), and old food patterns all play a role, and how to sit with the emotional and physical discomfort that weight gain often brings. You’ll hear: When weight gain might actually be a good sign What curiosity (instead of panic) can teach you Why menopause weight changes are biologically normal AND also still hard How to find self-compassion when your jeans feel tight If weight gain feels like a constant battle or brings up panic, this is for you. Can we start asking different questions and stop labeling everything as a problem to be fixed? Let's talk about it.

What happens when your body no longer looks, feels, or moves the way it used to—and you didn’t get a say in the matter? This week on The Diet Diaries, I’m talking with Veronica Kautz—a breast cancer survivor, wife, sister, mom of two and worker of 2 full time jobs (she’s the founder of Scotch Plains City Lifestyle Magazine)—about her experience living in a body that’s been through a double mastectomy and breast reconstruction. We talk about: * The grief of losing her breasts * How to advocate for your health * How her diagnosis impacted her tween daughter * The unexpected feelings after having breast reconstruction This conversation is raw, honest, and so needed. If you've ever struggled with body image—especially after illness, surgery, or any major physical change—hope you’ll listen in. This one’s for you. 💛 _____________________________________________________________________________ A lifelong builder and believer in people, Veronica brings over 25 years of experience scaling high-performing sales orgs in the Talent Acquisition space.

Born on Long Island and now proudly rooted in Scotch Plains, NJ, Veronica is the youngest of five sisters, married 19 years, and mom to two incredible kids — one boy, one girl. She’s walked 60 miles for a cause, pitched CHROs by day and local businesses by night, and believes deeply in doing good work with good people. Off the clock, you’ll find her front row at a concert, cracking up at a comedy show, or cheering on anything live — because for Veronica, it’s all about connection, whether across a table, a Zoom call, or a stage.

Structure and flexibility. We always think we have to choose. You're either a planner or you're go-with-the-flow. But what if the magic actually lives in the middle?

In this episode, I’m sharing the story behind my recent foray in self-tanning (spoiler: it’s for Ben’s bar mitzvah), and the bigger conversation it sparked about how we see ourselves, especially as summer approaches. This one goes deep into the kind of appearance-based noise so many of us live with all day long... and don’t even realize. We’re talking about: * The pressure to be “tan enough” to wear white * Why body modification often feels like a necessity, not a choice * What it means to feel like yourself vs. trying to look “better” * How to start noticing and quieting the noise in your head about how you look This is not a judgment on tanning or makeup or any of the things we do to change our appearance. It’s an invitation to get curious, ask why, and maybe—just maybe—loosen the grip body noise has on your life. And if you want to book a Power Hour session to talk about body noise or anything else you're struggling with as we approach summer, just click here.
