EPISODE SUMMARY:
In this solo podcast, Lindsay dives into the topic of diet culture and the impact it has on a mother’s wellness before, during and after baby. From a very young age, a foundation is laid for us in Western culture – your body can’t be trusted, your weight determines your health and worth and, particularly as women, you should spend large amounts of time distracted by food and body “stuff.” This episode looks at how this foundation sets us up for challenges with food and body before, during and after pregnancy and why we must challenge these messages. You CAN opt out of diet culture!
