Welcome to Nourished with Kindness (Podcast Version)!
As dietitians in the eating disorder and weight-inclusive field, Alyssa Callahan and Karen Darden have built careers helping others break free from diet culture and cultivate a self-compassionate, purposeful way of life. Join us as we share our knowledge and speak with experts and advocates about changing the health and wellness landscape that idolizes shrinking and hustling into one that values growth and wholeness. We will explore questions that dietitians, therapists, and health providers in the weight-inclusive field struggle with and talk about moving our field and ourselves forward to be more inclusive, curious, and informed.
