    55: "Oh, That's Not Cool" - Protecting Kids From Diet Culture with Vicky Bellman {Re-Run}

    In this episode I talk to therapist Vicky Bellman, from Concentric Counselling and Fat Bubble, about protecting our kids from the weird diet culture things people say that can rupture their embodiment.

In this episode we discuss: 👉 The 'hot potato' of disordered eating and disembodiment that gets transmitted through families👉 How to shut down body shaming conversations in their tracks👉 How we can transmit healing back up the line, as well as protect our kids👉 How every day that we protect our kids from diet culture is a day we are giving back to our younger selves👉 Why body positivity and food neutrality are not the whole story You can follow Vicky on Instagram here.
