213. The Referral I Won't Give My Clients (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are some questions that sound simple until you actually sit with them. This is one of those questions: "Can I work with a dietitian who specializes in eating disorders and also helps me lose weight?" At first glance, it feels like a yes-or-no question. But underneath it is a much bigger conversation about recovery, autonomy, body image, health, medical advice, and the beliefs we've been taught about weight. In this episode, we're unpacking why this question is so complicated for both clien

Read excerpt
In this episode, I'm talking about why orthorexia is one of the most misunderstood eating disorders, how wellness culture can quietly reinforce it, and why the biggest warning sign has very little to do with what's actually on your plate. Because when grabbing pizza with friends feels mentally exhausting, that's worth paying attention to. Quotes "The biggest problem isn't what you're eating. It's what happens when you can't follow the rule." "A life controlled by food rules is still a life contr
