Carolina Guízar, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and certified intuitive eating counselor, joins Nia Patterson this week on the eight episode of the podcast to talk about her body trauma growing up in a straight-size, Latinx body. She talks about her life growing up with childhood trauma and racism. We talk about OCD and the different ways it presents for both of us and how we cope with it. We also talk about Health At Every Size (HAES) and what does that even mean. Lastly, we throw in some great McDonald's laughs and deeply relate on our love of double cheeseburgers! Join us as we talk about mental health, trauma and food.
Carolina Guízar is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and certified intuitive eating counselor with a private practice in New York City. She works with individuals who are recovering from diet culture and want to cultivate a more peaceful relationship with food and their bodies. She also specializes in irritable bowel syndrome and brings a non-diet approach to her work with this population.
The daughter of Mexican immigrants, Carolina understands the difficulties that many in the Latinx community face. Carolina set out to spread the message of Health at Every Size and intuitive eating to Latinx communities via her Instagram account @eathority with the aim of alleviating the suffering brought on by food preoccupation and body dissatisfaction. She hopes to shed light on the oppressive qualities of diet culture, and its harmful impact on Latinx communities in the United States.
