In this episode, Cassandra welcomes the lovely Bonnie Green RDN to the podcast. Going deep into diet culture and the subliminal messages we see in the online space, this conversation is juicy and full of powerful reminders. Above all else, take this reminder: wellness is different for everyone and there’s no one size fits all approach.
“A perfect diet isn’t healthy and a healthy diet isn’t perfect.”
Together we talk about:
-why BMI is not a real measure of health
-where diet culture starts and how it affects us
-what diet culture is and how this teaches us to shrink ourselves
-stigmas around weight
-the different ways wellness can look
-how an obsession with clean eating can become disordered
-and so much more
Bonnie Green (she/her) is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Registered Yoga Teacher from Southeastern Michigan. She wears many hats: she works with teenagers who have eating disorders, preschoolers and their families, and young women who struggle with a variety of nutrition-related issues. She believes that humans can be healthy at every body shape and size, and that "healthy eating" does not look any one way. She has a non-diet approach with her clients, meaning that she works with them to find out the root of their problem and form goals to feel more confident in their bodies, not focusing on eliminating food groups or favorite foods.
