  • Diet culture: what this is, where it comes from & how this influenced Lisah personally, without even realizing it.
  • Lisah’s introduction to Intuitive Eating + some of the exact steps she took to begin healing her relationship with food.
  • Food anxiety & how our core beliefs & relationship with food impact one another.
  • Practical action steps for continuing to amplify black voices, as a white woman in this culture (me & maybe you).
