Nourishing Women Podcast: 345: Body Autonomy, Intuitive Eating and Weight Loss (An Honest Conversation on Why This is Misguided)

345: Body Autonomy, Intuitive Eating and Weight Loss (An Honest Conversation on Why This is Misguided)

Mar 18, 2022

Today is a random conversation podcast kind-of-episode for you! In this episode we talk about using body autonomy as a scapegoat for promoting weight loss as an intuitive eating provider, and my disappointment in seeing providers marketing weight loss when they also say they help people heal from disordered eating.

In this episode I also wanted to share that I stand in solidarity with Mickey, Lindley and ASDAH in the harm caused by Lindo Bacon. We are working to make changes in how we approach Health At Every Size as a result, and will continue to actively work to reduce our harm caused. You can learn more about what has transpired in this article, this article and this article.
