In this podcast I interview Tessa Yannone, the wellness editor at Boston Magazine. Tessa manages the health and wellness content of their online and print magazine. I wanted to talk to Tessa about fitness representation in media as she has access and experience with various classes, styles of fitness, gyms and wellness trends all over the city! The content that she puts out is really great, thorough, information and I thought she would have excellent insight for other content consumers as to what to look for looking for fitness information online or in print.

In this episode I talk with Leslie Green, a social media expert, all about how fitness is represented in social media. She gives really great tips for how to use social media as a consumer and as a creator.

This series is going to focus on how fitness is represented in media. I talk to three different individuals who are experts in the field of media and focus on fitness and wellness. In these podcasts we discuss how media is a tool and like any other tool, they have the power to be helpful and the power to be harmful. Its all in how you use it.

In this Podcast I talk with Christy Harrison, a RDN who is focused on intuitive eating and anti-diet culture.

In this episode I talk with Krista Scott Dixon about the process Precision Nutrition uses when clients come to them with weightless goals and the discoveries they make along the way. We also discuss the data Precision Nutrition as a whole has made throughout their years of helping clients with their nutrition goals.

In This episode I talk my my friend Jessie about her journey of discovering and addressing her disordered eating habits after she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. She talks a lot about intuitive eating and how this has helped her.

Here are a list of resources Jessie mentions in the podcast:

Books:

- Health At Every Size by Linda Bacon - this explains the science of metabolism and weight loss and why diets don't work as well as what diets do to our body on a physiological level. She then spends a lot of time discussing how fat phobia has prevented people in larger bodies receiving proper health care when a lot of their diseases are not even related to their weight - this book BLEW MY MIND!

- Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch - also comes with a work book and would highly recommend getting both

- The 8 Keys to Recovery by Carolyn Costing and Gwen Schubert Grabb - also comes with a work book but I would recommend reading the book first and then doing the workbook.

- The Wellness Rebel by Pixie Turner is awesome for myth busting as well as The Angry Chef by Anthony Warner

- The Fuck it Diet: Eating should easy by Carolyn Dooner - this book was one of my favs a quick read and so inspiring to stay on the track to having a better relationship with food
