Today we're exploring a really common (and very hard) situation through the lens of a listener question: When you're healing from a complicated relationship with food, but your partner is still dieting, or may not think they're dieting, but are deeply steeped in beliefs that are informed by wellness culture and diet culture. How do you cope? What do you do? How do you protect yourself while honoring their needs?
This episode will also be helpful for navigating friendships or other family relationships (anyone who is important to you!).
