In this week’s episode, I’m joined by Registered Dietitian, Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, and body image coach Amanda Mittman. Amanda has worked with hundreds of clients and learned that the distress of a changing body can be very similar in different stages of life.

Together, we discuss:

• Perimenopause and why we're hearing more about it now
• The damage that diet culture causes in the perimenopause space
• How body grief shows up in midlife and in an aging body
• Losing young privilege and facing ageism
• How to seek support from your community
