Dawnversations: In My Head

This week on Dawnversations, I’m joined by Gretchen Zimmermann, MBA, RD, LD, CDCES, CSOWM, VP of Clinical Strategy at Vida Health. Gretchen has spent her career cutting through the noise around obesity and nutrition — and in this episode, she helps us separate fact from fiction.
We bust some of the most common myths about weight loss, obesity, and “quick fix” diets, plus talk about why lasting health is a whole lot more complex than calorie counts and willpower. We even touch on The Biggest Loser and what that show got wrong (and right) about changing your body.
Whether you’ve struggled with weight yourself, or just want a clearer picture of how nutrition and obesity really work, this conversation is packed with insight and honesty. 
✨ Listen in and walk away with a fresh perspective on food, health, and what it really takes to feel your best.

What is Dawnversations: In My Head ?

⭐ Ranked Top 7 in Improv Podcast of the Month on Goodpods, and Top 10 in Funny & Life categories. Apparently talking to myself is working.

Welcome to Dawnversations: In My Head — Part Funny. Part Therapy. The podcast where the real conversations happen inside Dawn’s brain… and yes, it’s a lot. Join me every week as I talk honestly about life, overthinking, identity, style, midlife chaos, and whatever strange spiral I'm riding that day — often interrupted by my inner nag, Carol, who ALWAYS has something to say.
This isn’t self-help. It’s self-talk — relatable, raw, and slightly sarcastic in the best way.
If you’ve ever wondered “Is it just me?” — good news. It isn’t.
Ready or not… here we go. You can watch me on YouTube or listen anywhere you listen to your favorite podcasts!
