“The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself.” – Michel de Montaigne
Today’s guest is Kat Whitfield, a graphic designer and no-diet-bullshit fitness coach (who totally blows my mind with her grasp on marketing messages and the diet industry)
In this episode we discuss:
* Why the diet lifestyle is still a lifestyle
* How marketers can manipulate you into dieting (or hating your body)
* Why “real women” ads are a step forward, but still missing the mark
And more!
