Everything's Perfect

Episode Description New year, new promises… and the same old diet chaos. In this episode, Autumn and Donald break down fad diets, New Year’s resolutions, and why extreme approaches almost never work the way we hope they will.From crash diets and juice cleanses to baby-food meals and cabbage-soup disasters, they unpack why these trends keep resurfacing — and why they so often fail. The conversation expands beyond food into motivation, habit-building, accountability, and the psychology behind extreme challenges like 75 Hard.They also reflect on generational beliefs about weight, emotional relationships with food, and the fine line between discipline and disordered behavior. Instead of chasing perfection, this episode encourages realistic goal-setting, self-awareness, and sustainable lifestyle change — because real progress comes from consistency, not punishment.Everything’s Perfect MERCH Support the show and rep Everything’s Perfect wherever you go.🛍 Shop here: everythingsperfect.com📸 Follow along at @everythingsperfectofficialJoin the ConversationDo you still make New Year’s resolutions or are you over them?Ever tried a fad diet that totally backfired?📩 [email protected]📸 @everythingsperfectofficialYour stories may be featured in a future episode 💛Key Topics & Timestamps 00:00 — Intro banter, supplements, indigestion jokes & New Year vibes04:30 — Why health goals dominate New Year’s resolutions09:30 — Japan’s “Metabol Law” & preventative health16:40 — Weight, sensitivity & generational conditioning22:30 — Coaching vs punishment & lifestyle interventions27:50 — Extreme challenges: discipline vs sustainability33:30 — Crash-diet breakdown: Master Cleanse, juice cleanses & more38:50 — Mono-food diets: grapefruit, cabbage soup, egg diet43:40 — Baby-food diet, HCG & diet-culture history48:30 — Realistic goal-setting & why vague resolutions fail53:40 — Accountability, motivation & public commitments58:20 — Final thoughts & listener callout
