“Your body tries to talk to you – are you listening?” with Rebecca Scritchfield

In this episode of the Escape Diet Prison Podcast, I am joined by Rebecca Scritchfield.

Rebecca is a well-being coach, registered dietitian nutritionist, ACSM certified exercise physiologist, and author of the book, Body Kindness: Transform your health from the inside out and never say diet again, which Publisher’s Weekly calls “a rousing guide to better health” and The New York Times Book Review calls “simple and true”.

Through her weight-inclusive Body Kindness counseling practice, she helps people reject diets and body shame to create a better life with workable, interesting self-care goals. She has influenced millions through her writing, podcast, workshops, and appearances in over 100 media outlets.

She lives in Washington, D.C., where she was recognized as one of ten “Supermom” entrepreneurs in the Nation’s Capital.

In this episode we discuss:
