Do you ever feel uncertain of your food freedom journey? Are dieting thoughts taking up all the space in your brain? Registered Dietitian Nutritionists Dalina Soto and Melissa Landry interview fellow Dietitian and author Alissa Rumsey explain why it's so hard to ditch diet culture as they discuss key themes in Alissa's new book: Unapologetic Eating (now available on Amazon).

In today’s episode we discuss:

  • how Intuitive Eating served as a gateway toward Alissa's social justice lens on food
  • diet culture as a symptom of societal and cultural issues like racism and fatphobia
  • how dieting behaviors can create a sense of belonging (even when they aren't working)
  • how you can dismantle diet culture through unapologetic eating
