Church Hurt & Diet Culture in Safe Space...

Stefani Reinold, MD, MPH, Board Certified Psychiatrist
About this episode

More people are talking about "church hurt" or "religious trauma" with regard to sexual sins and abuses of power. But no one seems to be talking about how churches and faith leaders have affected our relationship with food and our bodies. In my interview with dietitian and Christian, Leslie Schilling, we discuss the difficult topic of how diet culture (& the harms that come with it) have infiltrated even the safest of spaces, like churches, faith communities, medical offices, and loved ones.
