Today on the podcast I have guest and fellow anti-diet dietitian, Shana Spence, on the show. Shana labels herself as an "eat anything" dietitian. Shana believes since life is already complicated, why restrict yourself? She created a wonderful platform on Instagram to allow for an open discussion on all things health and nutrition, and also provides virtual counseling worldwide.

In this episode we discuss:

• Shana's journey going back to school to become a dietitian and how she became an anti-diet dietitian
• What does an eat everything and all foods fit mentality mean
• How allowing all foods into your eating world (sans medical or ethical needs) allows for foods to become emotionally equivalent
• Shana's tips to removing the internal dialogue that tells you that you are "good" or "bad" for how you eat
• How to deal with negative feedback on Instagram and how to build a community on Instagram
• How Shana practices wellness without obsession

Learn more about Shana on her website and Instagram. Original episode is posted here.
