Before we ever counted calories, we counted bodies. In this opening episode of Intuitive Eating for the Soul, Mia Deneen exposes the political and spiritual roots of diet culture through the lens of history and faith. Drawing on Sabrina Strings’ Fear of the Black Body, she unpacks how racism, religion, and body bias became tangled — and how reclaiming our God-given appetite is an act of holy rebellion.
Listen, share, and remember: the politics of thinness were never about health — they were about control.
