In this episode of The Art of Imperfect Adulting, Amy Stone speaks with Lindsey Kaszuba about the lifelong journey to trusting your own body. Lindsey is a New York City-based integrative nutrition health coach and founder of Kaszuba Health. She candidly shares her experiences growing up in Florida, navigating diet culture, the pressures of postpartum weight loss, and how motherhood and self-reflection transformed her approach to wellness. About the Guest: Lindsey Kaszuba is an integrative nutrition health coach and founder of Kaszuba Health. Living in downtown Manhattan with her three children, Lindsey is passionate about helping women unlock their healthiest weight and cultivate sustainable habits by tuning into their bodies’ true needs—beyond the scale. “Her inner dialogue is going to be how I speak to myself. And so it’s really important for me to never talk about my weight or look at myself and be like, ‘Oh my God, I need to lose weight.’” — Lindsey Kaszuba Main Topics Covered: Growing up with mixed messages about health, body image, and food How generational beliefs and media shape our relationship with body size The transition from obsessive diet and exercise patterns to holistic, intuitive wellness The physical and emotional journey through pregnancy, postpartum, and shifting priorities Navigating motherhood while modeling healthy behaviors and self-acceptance Processing societal pressure, wellness overwhelm, and the realities of trendy interventions (like GLP-1 medications) The importance of quiet, self-reflection, and customizing health habits Quote from the Episode: “If you don’t adjust your habits and you’re just doing it for a quick fix, like, it’s just gonna come back. And everyone knows when you get off a diet, you usually gain more weight because your body’s like, ‘help, we’ve been starving this whole time. Now it’s time to eat.’” — Lindsey Kaszuba Timestamps: [00:00:05] Warm-up: NYC living and celebrating small wins [00:03:13] Early influences: health, family, and evolving messages about weight [00:09:35] Diet, calorie counting, and the origins of food restriction [00:18:37] Pregnancy, postpartum, and self-image evolution [00:24:35] Mindset shift: Letting go of control and honoring what feels good [00:29:32] Developing intuition, finding what works, and embracing gentler habits [00:32:23] Modeling body trust for her daughters [00:35:29] GLP-1 medications: Nuanced perspectives on quick fixes vs. habit change [00:41:36] Why self-kindness, quiet reflection, and intentional habits matter [00:45:03] Lindsey’s work, offers, and how to connect Special Offer from the Guest: Name of the product offered: Health Club Collective: A course & community focused on helping women unlock their healthiest weight yet and trust their body...beyond the scale.
