Weight Inclusivity, Self-Compassion, and Grieving the Thin Ideal with Mya Kwon

This week we are joined by Mya Kwon, a fellow anti-diet dietitian. In this episode we talk about: 

• Mya’s story with her relationship with food and body
• Mya’s unconventional path into the world of HAES and Intuitive Eating
• How Mya’s students respond to the weight inclusive curriculum
• Why grieving the thin ideal is an important part of body image healing
• Why self-compassion is central to intuitive eating

Before diving into the interview with Mya, we answer a listener question about what to do when you’ve stopped calorie counting but you cant stop the internal calorie tracker in your brain
