One of the big questions of Departure Menopause is how we can support deep health during the menopause transition, without the focus on weight.

Intuitive Eating, a model of non-diet nutrition, was created in the 1990s by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. It’s been the subject of hundreds of research studies.

This week, I’m thrilled to have Amber Hanson, LN, CNS, join us on the show to discuss her work, which focuses on improving people's relationships with food and their bodies through a weight-inclusive approach grounded in Intuitive Eating principles.
