Victoria Yates, RN-BSN: Body Image & Food Freedom

Watch the podcast, above, or listen below.

Victoria Yates, RN & Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, is passionate about helping women ditch diets and stop hating their bodies.

In this episode, Victoria and I discuss why quick fixes don’t work when it comes to our weight, why intuitive eating is the answer to freedom from food, and how we can start listening for the language we use around our body image and change it if it’s not serving us.

Wendy shares the surprising things she learned when she ditched her scale over 4 years ago, and how she came to love her (slightly softer!) body after the bumpy ride of menopause (and decades of self-criticism.)
