96. Healing Your Relationship With Food w/ Dr. Ebony Butler

Let's talk food...specifically your personal relationship with food & what does that relationship currently consists of. And this is much deeper than just weight loss, counting calories, the numbers on the scale, eating healthier, what to eat/what not to eat, and working out. This is more about identifying and being aware of our behaviors, perceptions,  triggers, emotions and mindsets around food. From our upbringing, to our culture, to even our personal life experiences as well as our relationship trauma, these influences have made a massive impact on our current relationship with food. And even though food is indeed a need in all of our lives what's most important is having a peaceful relationship around food that will enhance our wellbeing being and quality of life. On this week’s episode, I invited Licensed Psychologist and Food Relationship Strategist, Dr. Ebony Butler to come and have a much needed discussion around our relationship with food. Join us as she discusses the impact that diet culture has on the body, relationship trauma and it’s connection with food, why “loving” yourself may still be challenging, as well as tangible steps that a person can do to improve their relationship with food and unlearn diet culture.
