An olympic athlete’s journey to body neutrality in dietetics with Jourdan Delacruz

On today’s episode we’re talking relationship with food, body image and body neutrality in dietetics from olympic athlete and soon to be dietitian Jordan Delacruz. Today we’re talking about – wow do you balance the principles of intuitive eating, non-diet, and supporting positive body image while in a weight class dependent sport? Jordan talks about her personal experience as a professional athlete and how weight class sports can be a very toxic culture of negative self talk, extreme dieting or weight control practices, and how she’s working to navigate this and create a more positive culture.
