25 APR 2026 · In the final episode of our "Outweigh: What We Know in 2026" mini-series, Amy and Leanne dive deep into body image and self-image, revealing why healing how you see yourself has far more to do with your brain and internal mirror than anything reflected back at you externally.
Amy introduces the common struggle of trying to fix body image from the outside in, while Leanne shares what the research keeps showing us: body image doesn't live in the mirror—it lives in the brain. This is why people can change their body and still feel miserable inside if the internal story about who they are never changes.
Together, they explore what shapes our internal mirror—how we see ourselves, how safe we feel in our bodies, how we anticipate judgment or rejection—and why external changes won't bring peace until this internal mirror shifts.
Leanne explains the brain wiring and identity work required to actually create lasting change in how you see yourself, offering hope that healing is possible when you address the root cause rather than just trying to change what you see in the external mirror.
This episode provides compassion and clarity for anyone who has struggled with body image, helping listeners understand that there was never anything wrong with them—they just didn't have the whole picture. And now they do.

18 APR 2026 · In the second episode of our "Outweigh: What We Know in 2026" mini-series, Amy and Leanne cut through the confusion surrounding recovery and food freedom, redefining what these terms actually mean based on current science.
Amy addresses the overwhelming amount of language being thrown around right now—"non-dieting," "food freedom," "eat intuitively"—and how it's created even more confusion for people on a recovery journey. Leanne reveals the critical insight that simply removing food rules doesn't magically create food freedom.
Together, they explore why most people swing between the pendulum of control versus chaos when they try to "just stop dieting," and explain what's actually required for lasting, sustainable change: calming the nervous system, rebuilding self-trust, and creating an entirely new way of thinking.
Leanne helps listeners understand that both restriction and "screw it" eating are driven by the same old system of thinking: good versus bad, right versus wrong, should versus shouldn't, deprivation versus rebellion. True food freedom isn't chaos or control—it's learning how to choose from safety and truth instead of fear and reaction.
This episode offers clarity on what food freedom actually is and provides hope that you can learn to choose from calm, truth, and alignment instead of being driven by fear, rules, or rebellion.

11 APR 2026 · In the first episode of our special "Outweigh: What We Know in 2026" mini-series, Amy and Leanne explore how our understanding of eating disorders and disordered eating has dramatically evolved since the podcast launched in 2020.
Amy sets the stage by acknowledging that when Outweigh began, the conversation was primarily focused on behavior—the dieting, the rules, the willpower struggle. While those elements absolutely matter, Leanne reveals what the latest research is now showing us: eating struggles were never just a willpower or behavior problem.
Together, they unpack the deeper truth that disordered eating is fundamentally connected to how the brain is wired around stress, emotions, safety, and self-image. Leanne explains why focusing only on food rules or behavior never worked long-term, and shares the hopeful news that if it's wiring, it can be rewired.
This episode takes the shame out of the struggle and helps listeners understand that there was never anything wrong with them—they just didn't have the whole picture. Your struggles weren't a lack of willpower; they were a wiring issue that can be addressed with the right tools and understanding.

4 APR 2026 · Welcome back for Part 6 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the game plan for success—how to carve out your own winning strategy, while also addressing a crucial piece of the puzzle: earning back your own trust. You see, even if you had the perfect plan and the most ideal steps laid out, what good would it do if you couldn’t trust yourself to follow through? That’s why we dive deep into earning back your own trust so you can live in alignment and integrity WHILE you go after your health goals. We often think the alternative to dieting is losing control, but the true alternative is freedom—freedom to nourish your body and soul, to wave the white flag, and declare peace. This episode is about shifting from the mindset of restriction and "repair" to one of healing and "care". We’ll explore how to truly partner with your body and align your mind and heart to create a sustainable, peaceful life. We’ll also tackle those sneaky “Never-Gonna” inner voices that sabotage your success before you even begin. Together, we’ll reframe your approach so that you can build self-trust, stop the self-sabotage, and finally play a game that’s designed for you to win.

28 MAR 2026 · Welcome back for Part 5 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts. This week we’re diving deep into a crucial part of the food and body image conversation—what Leanne likes to call your “body brain.” If you’ve been following along, you know we’ve been exploring how faith intersects with our struggles around food and self image. Today, we’re turning our focus to the physical side of things, and how your body (and your perception of it) are deeply intertwined.
We’ll be looking at this from both a nervous system and physiological perspective, but we can’t ignore the importance of how you view your body and your relationship with it.
This episode isn’t about offering a quick fix; it’s about helping you understand the deeper layers that contribute to your struggles. Leanne also shares her personal journey of overcoming her own body image (and chronic pain) battles, so you can see that real, lasting change is possible...but it starts with breaking the chains of your own harsh self-criticism, guilt, and shame. The hope is that by the end of this episode, you’ll feel empowered to start dismantling your own beliefs and step into a new story about your body. Remember, this isn’t just about what you weigh or how you look—it’s about freeing yourself from the heavy burden of judgment and stepping into a place of peace and self-compassion.

21 MAR 2026 · Welcome back for Part 4 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts.
If you’ve been struggling with disordered eating patterns, restrictive diets, or feeling chained to unhealthy eating habits, this conversation is for you. We talk about how inviting God into your journey can help break those chains, allowing you to step into a new identity rooted in peace, love, and TRUE freedom.
We explore the concept of the "food brain" and how it’s wired to seek comfort and connection through unhealthy coping mechanisms like overeating, mindless scrolling, or other habits that distract from what your soul truly needs.
This episode isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level solutions; it's about understanding the root of your struggles and learning to meet them with compassion, solution-focused care, and faith.
If you’re ready to shift your focus from fighting with your body to truly healing your relationship with food, this conversation will guide you toward that transformation, with God right by your side.

14 MAR 2026 · Welcome back for Part 3 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts.
Last week, we explored the big picture of this conversation, and this week we narrow the focus to the self-image and identity piece of this food and body puzzle. We discuss the necessity of stepping into a new version of yourself if you really want to achieve true health and freedom in your relationship with food and your body.
We talk about WHY transforming your self-image is crucial on a neuroscience level, and how it's not about what you eat-- but who you truly believe yourself to be.
Only this time around, you're invited to address the roots of your identity and self-image in a way that aligns with God's view of yourself, instead of worldly and societal standards.
And of course, we get a little 'geeky' and explore the Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC), and its significant role in self-perception, emotional and physical pain, and your coping mechanisms, AND how this is particularly important for women, whose ACCs are more active than men's. Throughout the episode, you'll hear scripture AND evidence-based research that supports the transformative power of faith.
Dive on in to learn how integrating faith and science can lead to building YOUR new identity, free from the burdens of shame and self-rejection, and discover what it truly means to see yourself as God sees you.

7 MAR 2026 · Welcome back for Part 2 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts. Today, we're diving deep into the intersection of faith, science, food, and body image. This is the big picture conversation -- where these themes overlap, so you can simply understand this connection between neuroscience and faith...and how it can lead to meaningful, lasting transformation in our lives. Leanne shares (for her) how embracing this dialogue meant confronting her skeptical, science-driven mindset and inviting a God-centered perspective into areas she was previously tackling through her own might, and how this approach completed her story and aligned with her fascination with the brain and nervous system. She addresses topics like: Why do our brains play tricks on us? Why do we do what we do? Why can't we seem to shake life-long habits? With references to biblical scripture and modern neuroscience studies, Leanne highlights the transformative power of aligning your thoughts with a higher spiritual perspective. And of course you are invited to invite God into the conversation, recognizing that true transformation involves cultivating a new identity rooted in faith and understanding the profound connection between mind, body, and spirit...and self-image.

28 FEB 2026 · We are so excited to bring you the first official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts. If you have been listening to Outweigh, you know that THAT podcast is all about helping women break themselves out of the food and body prison, end the dieting madness, and take control of their health for good, but without all that restriction, obsession, and shame…and without dragging it out for years to address it.
And if you’ve been listening to "What’s God Got To Do With It?", you know that it's all about the fusion of where science meets Faith and where faith meets transformation and miracles. So this crossover series is a beautiful opportunity to talk about the crossover of where science meets food…& body image… & self image struggles…AND where THAT intersects FAITH (or what’s God got to do with allll of that?)
And that’s exactly what this 6 part series is all about:
Part 1 is an introduction and setting up this massive topic.
Part 2 is all about the big picture of where faith meets science meets food & body image.
Part 3 goes deep into the self image and identity that you need to actually step into the version of you that would have THAT health, that would have THAT relationship with food and her body, who would actually be at peace and feel free….…and of course how that fuses with this faith-brain conversation.
Part 4 dives deeper into What God has to do with (what Leanne calls) your ‘food brain’ and disordered eating patterns, and filling voids in your head, heart, and spirit with food (or whatever your drug of choice is)…and it’s a hole that will never be filled by those things.
Part 5 dives into the complicated relationship that women have with their bodies and their body image (and physical pain – a topic often avoided), and how to heal all of that from a faith-meets-science perspective.... AND invite God into the conversation.
And then wrapping it up in part 6, we get into the strategy side of things. As in, what does it look like to use what you’ve learned about neuroscience and faith and healing your relationship with food and your body image to go create a winning game plan that sets you up to win AND one that your brain just learns so you can go live your life, food can be food, and you can feel comfortable in your skin and free from the chains of restricting or punishing your body.
So let’s dive in! Enjoy Part 1.

21 FEB 2026 · Have you ever felt like you’re carrying a heavy secret—one that no one knows about? In this episode of Outweigh, Leanne Ellington dives deep into the struggle that so many women face but rarely talk about: feeling trapped in a hidden battle with food, body shame, and self-judgment. Leanne opens up about her own experience of being stuck in a “food and body prison” while presenting a happy face to the world. She breaks down how shame isolates us, making us feel broken, and why this isn’t just about food or weight—it’s about the stories we tell ourselves and the shame we carry silently. Through real-life examples of her clients’ struggles—like the superwoman hiding her midnight binges or the woman avoiding social events out of fear of being judged—Leanne explains why no diet, workout plan, or mantra will break this cycle. The solution isn’t another diet or exercise routine. It’s healing your self-image and rewiring the relationship you have with yourself. If you’ve ever felt like food struggles were your “dirty little secret” and wondered why you can’t just “get it together,” this episode is for you. Leanne shows how breaking free isn’t about more willpower—it’s about breaking out of the shame prison and reclaiming your sense of self-worth.
