Melissa Landry
About this episode

What was your relationship to food and body image like in college? Many clients report their disordered eating behaviors began or worsened during the college years. And many did not receive care or support during this time which is why, in part, they still struggle with food and body image today.

What is the impact of diet culture on college students? In what ways does the college environment impact students from marginalized communities differently? Especially for those in bigger bodies who were routinely prescribed and praised for their (often harmful) weight loss efforts during the college years: what are ways you can heal from disordered eating, even years after you've graduated?

In today’s episode, Melissa interviews Dr. Hortencia Jimenéz, professor, sociologist, and health coach to discuss her perspectives on:

  • What it means to consider eating disorders and anti-diet work from an anti-oppressive lens
  • How generational diet trauma gets tangled up with college educational systems and environments 
  • How to make meaning of your own disordered eating behaviors during your college years so you can experience healing today
  • 3 ways community care can impact and support individuals at risk for eating disorders and disordered eating in the college setting
