Stop fighting
your body.
Start building one that
carries you for decades.
If you've been treating your body like a problem to solve — and handing the answers to everyone else — this is where that changes.
Join me live on Wednesdays and talk it through in real time.
A conversation for women about living in our bodies
—for decades,
not just seasons.
Real Strength.
No more chasing smaller.
Food that actually supports life.
Ditch rules, hacks, and resentment.
Recovery that builds capacity.
Beyond just comfort.
Presence that shows up naturally.
Without performing.
You can count on me to do the research
you care about but can’t get to.
I read the books, listen to the podcasts, and test it in real life before I ever bring it to you. If it delivers real, repeatable results, it stays. If it doesn’t, it’s gone.
And if I change my mind?
I’ll always tell you why.
P.S. This is a living conversation, not a finished product — and it grows through the people who show up for it. If it resonates, subscribe on YouTube.
Here’s what changes
when biology takes the lead.
Chasing smaller loses its grip. Strength becomes the priority.
Looking younger matters less. Resilience takes the lead.
The scale loses its power. Function becomes the measure.
Wellness stops being something you follow. Your body becomes the guide.
Health stops being managed. It becomes something you live inside.
Quick fixes lose their pull. Long-term capacity takes the lead.
The body gets to join
the conversation.
Waiting doesn’t preserve options.
It quietly reduces them.
WEDNESDAYS AT 12:00 CT
Listening to your biology changes how you live in your body. You start moving through your days differently—and with more freedom inside them.
—Paula Marie Davis
Ready to get started?
Here’s how this site works:
Everything here is designed to help you
reconnect with your body,
notice what’s actually happening,
and build understanding over time.
STEP #1
Women are taught to ignore what their bodies are telling them. The 5 Body Truths name those signals and explain why they matter.
START HERE
STEP #2
Every Wednesday, Paula works through this live — no script, no pitch, just an honest conversation about living in your body.
SHOW UP WEEKLY
STEP #3
The live show is where attention starts. Field Notes is where it goes deeper — written, deliberate, and built to be returned to.
GO DEEPER
STEP #4
Before you trust the work, you need to know who's doing it. Meet Paula — not for answers, but to see where this comes from.
WHO’S BEHIND THIS
-
Witnessing is where the work begins—before fixing, forcing, or optimizing anything.
It’s the practice of paying attention to the body as it is, because attention reorganizes behavior long before willpower is required. This is also where I do that work out loud, in real time, on the live show.
-
Field Notes is the deeper dive—the written backbone that grows out of Witness.
This is where observations turn into patterns, patterns turn into understanding, and understanding gets tested over time. It’s slower, more deliberate, and meant to be returned to—not skimmed.
-
The Body Truths emerged from years of witnessing and note-taking, not from trying to create a method.
They’re the patterns that kept holding up across different bodies, ages, and life stages—once attention stayed long enough to see them clearly.
-
Meet Paula and my ongoing work —what I’ve lived, tested, gotten wrong, and chosen to trust in the past, present, and what’s ahead.
If any of it helps you reconnect with your body and reclaim your own authority, that’s enough —’cause you don’t need another guru.
And, so we are clear…
I am not here to sell you wellness.
Ditch the Dogma is a place to slow down and pay attention to your body, the choices you make, the habits you build, and the life you are living.
I am not here to fix you or convince you of anything.
This work is not a funnel.
Not a sales pitch.
It exists because this conversation is needed.
It’s easier to accept a shortcut than to sit next to a woman who did the work and now moves differently through life—not because she’s better, but because she’s freer.
—Paula Marie Davis
Why they come back…
Most wellness spaces feel like they’re trying to convince me of something. This doesn’t. Paula talks about the body the way women actually experience it — complicated, honest, and not for show. That alone makes me trust the conversation.
So much wellness content is designed to lead you somewhere you didn’t ask to go. This isn’t. Paula talks things through without trying to turn it into a sale, and that makes me trust it.
There’s a lot of talk about listening to your body, but very little about what that actually looks like over time. Paula doesn’t pretend it’s instant or easy. She’s honest about the effort, and that makes the work feel possible.
There’s pressure to believe in something fully or you’re doing it wrong. This conversation lets you stay curious without committing your whole identity to a method.
This conversation isn’t here to replace one set of answers with another — it’s here to make room for questions most wellness spaces consistently avoid.
I can’t afford to keep buying things that promise results and don’t explain the tradeoffs. I want to understand my body, not just spend money on it. That’s why this matters to me.
