This week I spoke with my friend and mentor Christy Harrison. Christy is a registered dietitian, certified eating disorders specialist, journalist, and host of the weekly podcast Food Psych. Her first book, Anti-Diet, came out last year and she's currently finishing her next book, Rethinking Wellness, which will be out in 2023. 

In this second half of our conversation, we focus on emotional eating and shame in eating habits (like eating alone or standing up). We talk about how the pandemic impacts body image as well as body image in pregnancy and postpartum. We also get into the experience of anorexia nostalgia and much more.

Last week, in part one, we covered the principles and pitfalls of intuitive eating, pregnancy and IVF, writing, productivity, the overwhelming life season Christy is in and how she's taking care of herself throughout it all. We discussed how she's using meditation as a tool to get used to sitting in discomfort and more.
