#115: Body Positivity & Chronic Conditions - with Imogen Fox


Listen Later

I’m interviewing Imogen Fox, the person behind @the_feeding_of_the_fox. We talk about what it was like to recover from an eating disorder and navigating body acceptance as a Disabled Person with chronic conditions. In this episode, we chat about: - Imogen’s relationship with her body as a queer Disabled Person and how this evolved over time, - Why she didn’t think she was on a diet when she really was, - What was so hard about recovering from an eating disorder and what those first few months of navigating intuitive eating were like,  - Imogen discusses the differences of what it was like to live as a person with thin privilege and as someone in a fat body,  - Why she rejects the idea of body love and says it only creates more standards for marginalized people to fail, - What body acceptance means for her, - How to find acceptance and appreciation for your body when you have impairments or chronic conditions, - Why it’s problematic that the paleo community makes it feel like you should be able to “cure” your illnesses with food, - The importance of the social model of disability, Plus, so much more!
