Swimming in the Waters of Diet Culture with Jenny

Lisa sits down with group coaching alum and aftercare member, Jenny, to talk about how before we were able to identify “diet culture,” it was just the way we were raised and socialized and how she was able to see the light and ultimately come out of the cave. 
Topics:

Puberty and body image

90s diet culture trends 

Emotional eating

The “drug” of weight loss compliments

Internal Family Systems
