Are you ready to challenge everything you thought you knew about intuitive eating and the anti-diet movement? As someone who has been a huge fan of intuitive eating, lately I've started to see some flaws in it.

Have you ever questioned the cherry-picked data and misleading narratives these intuitive eating coaches push? And what about the contradiction between intuitive eating's support for body autonomy and its rejection of intentional weight loss? These are just two of the 5 icks I open up about in today's episode.

As a reminder what I share is just my take, it might not hit home for everyone who's into intuitive eating, anti-diet vibes, or Health at Every Size. These are just my general observations and I'd love to hear what you think too!
