My podcast guest this week is Michelle Yates, RD (@yatesnutrition), and I chat with her about looking beyond weight in terms of health.

If you are a Registered Dietitian or health professional who is looking for education surrounding Health at Every Size® and weight stigma in the healthcare system - this episode is for you!

If you want to learn why solely focusing on weight can be harmful - this episode will be interesting for you too!

  • Michelle opens up about her experience with disordered eating as a dietetic student. 
  • The superiority complex of eating disorders and disordered eating.
  • Michelle’s discovery of intuitive eating and her journey of self healing.
  • The power of having a good support system. 
  • Why finding your “happy” weight is a game-changer. 
  • How Michelles’ approach to health has shifted over the years. 
  • Weight stigma in the healthcare system. 
  • What Health at Every Size® (HAES®) is and why it’s important. 
  • Looking beyond weight in terms of health. 
  • Why the prescription of weight loss is unhelpful.
