Jessica welcomes Shana Spence, MS RDN, of The Nutrition Tea, to the show to talk about food elitism, Wellness culture and her new book Live Nourished; Make Peace with Food, Banish Body Shame, and Reclaim Joy. 

Somehow we always get back to anti-diet dietitians making cereal ads. And this time we mention the connection to Anahad O'Connor and his Lose It app.

Also, Jessica is in Time Magazine!!
