Ready to Un-Diet? Us Too.

Does un-dieting mean throwing in the towel and giving up on life? Absolutely not.  Today I’m joined by my friend and colleague (for a second time) Dr. Jennifer Huber, a Canadian Naturopathic Doctor, Registered Dietician and Intuitive Eating Coach who’s life mission is to help women make peace with food and their body in midlife.  Why does this happen? We share what happens in midlife and why un-dieting might be the answer to support midlife changes.  We dispel a ton of myths in this episode, including what “un-dieting” really means.  We ask great questions like: “When did you first start having thoughts about food in a moral way?” “What is your first memory of someone being upset about their body?” We highlight how these small little series of events lead to subconscious learning about food and bodies, and how that continues to shape how women feel about food in midlife - and especially in midlife.  Midlife has a lot of body changes, and when we mix this with women who are confused about food and their bodies, it leads to a ton of confusion and shame.  If you’ve ever attached the meaning of life or your worth to the shape of your body, you’ll want to tune in and listen to this safe, vulnerable conversation with two women on a mission to help you feel comfortable in your body.  Dr. Jen offers many online resources for midlife women, has her own podcast, The Midlife Feast, and has online programs to support women on their journey to un-diet their life.  You can learn more about Jen on her website  www.menopausenutritionist.ca or follow her on Instagram.
