If you want to opt out of diet culture, then what should you actually eat? 

Today’s guest is endeavoring to answer this question. Rachel Hartley is a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor and the author of a book called Gentle Nutrition: A Non-Diet Approach to Healthy Eating. 

In this episode we talk about:

  • The basics of intuitive eating
  • Her thoughts on whether or not we should weigh ourselves
  • Whether or not adopting intuitive eating means living with your face in a cookie jar forever
  • How her work has influenced her own body image
  • The eight guidelines of gentle nutrition
  • Her provocative contention that “the healthiest choice isn’t always the most nutritious choice”
  • Her take on some of the critiques of intuitive eating
  • Her thoughts on trendy new weight loss drugs like Ozempic
