Jessica Setnick on transgenerational influence on food and eating experiences.

Fellow Eating Disorder Dietitian brings her fabulous unique style to this interview, as we explore ways in which we can be aware of transgenerational influences on the way we experience food, eating and our bodies.

  • Transforming understanding from "this is a fact" to "this is a behaviour"
  • How awareness of the origins of our behaviours can open up space for choice
  • Separating moral judgements from behaviours
  • "When you can see many possibilities, shame diminishes" - we can help people navigate possibilities!
  • "No one choice makes or breaks"
  • "No one is born preoccupied with food, society makes us this way...."
  • How we can support parents in their efforts to feed their children in a way that fosters respect and care
  • Offering meaning to the behaviours, breaking through shame
  • How to use the word "regret" in a helpful way
  • How storytelling is a way we talk to ourselves too
