How Do I Nutrition? Wellness Without the Weird Shit with Eleni Agresta-Levine and Ashantis Jones

1 hour 20 minutes

This week's episode with Ashantis Jones and Eleni Agresta-Levine hit so many important topics around gentle nutrition and truly holistic wellness with a weight-inclusive approach. It was also just a ton of fun and I know you're gonna love it!

On this episode we talk about:

What their new program and community, Body Kind Nutrition is and how it came to be.

Commitment to community and personal care of ourselves as we transition into the winter months.

How weird it is that there are all sorts of communities centered around weight loss, but almost none that are weight inclusive--and how they're attempting to change that.

Staying within your scope of practice as a professional and how we can support and refer out to each other.

Ways to support yourself with nutrition when you're also in ED/DE recovery, neurodivergent, dealing with chronic illness, etc.

How they're addressing the very real concerns people have around their health and nutrition without dipping into diet culture or pseudoscience.

What a weight inclusive approach to nutrition actually looks like.

How to make food choices that feel good for you without following the arbitrary rules of diet culture OR anti-diet culture.

Some examples of recipes and meal prep ideas they've shared.

So many other good things.!
