Episode 95: How To Quit Diet Culture And Have a Healthy Relationship with Food, with Dietitian, Cookbook Author and TV Host, Abbey Sharp
While we love a New Years resolution self-improvement vibe, we’re officially breaking up with the toxic diet culture goals that are so pervasive every January. But it’s hard to tune out the BS “wellness advice” that’s taking over Instagram and focus on what’s *actually* healthy and sustainable for us in the long run.
So if you’re over the “new year new me” weight loss narrative, and you’re looking to make 2023 the year of restriction-free eating for pleasure and nourishment: Abbey Sharp just entered the chat.
Abbey is a Registered Dietitian, food writer and blogger, best-selling author, TV and radio personality, and founder of Abbey’s Kitchen. You might know her from her insanely popular Youtube channel, TikTok and Instagram, which are followed by millions of fans for her empowering nutrition facts, wellness myth debunking, and highly entertaining critiques of BS celebrity diets.
We cover everything from intuitive eating, gut health and realtalk on bloating, to creating satisfying meals and erasing the guilt around “trigger” foods. Plus, Abbey shares a hot tip on what to eat when you’re hungover…you’re welcome!
