I was so excited to hear your response to the return of Season 4! We definitely kicked things off with a bang in Episode #71 with dosist. I so appreciate your openness to learning about new topics that carry some stigma. I truly do have the best tribe!
Today's episode is equally as interesting and important. I'm chatting with Kelsey Miller, an anti-diet writer and body positivity activist. She is well known for her writing on Refinery 29's Anti-Diet Project and her memoir, Big Girl. She's also been working on her newest book, a pop-culture look at everyone's favorite TV show, Friends.
Not only is Kelsey incredibly knowledgeable in helping us navigate our diet-focused culture, but her story in and of itself is inspiring. I'm so excited to welcome Kelsey Miller to the show today.
Here are a few things we discuss in today's episode:
Kelsey's upbringing and how she got caught in the diet-binge cycle Growing up in diet culture and if and how things have changed The history of diet culture and diet fads Why all diets inevitably fail Her wake-up call and when she finally realized she didn't want to be caught in the diet cycle Kelsey's thoughts on Intuitive Eating and what it really means to embrace IE "Clean" eating and why it's still a diet and the dangers of the wellness space The difference between dieting to manipulate your body and chronic illness Getting married and the dieting culture that permeates it Her new book and why she chose to write about friendsJoin The Healthy Maven Tribe to ask guest questions and to find out who will be on the show before anyone else!
