#4 Dieting is a Threat to Health w/ Jessica Rothley, @whollyhealed

In this episode, I interview Jessica Demasi Rothley, EPC a.k.a. @Whollyhealed on Instagram. We explore the implications of dieting and disordered eating on female hormone health and what happens when half the population is chronically underfed. I ask her if she thinks "wellness culture" is the new "diet culture" and she has a fabulous answer. I especially love her popular #TabooTuesday posts, including why "fat is not a feeling" and "female nudity." She believes real talk is the only kind of talk and I could not agree more. Quote: "A culture fixated on female thinness is not an obsession about female beauty, but an obsession about female obedience. Dieting is the most potent political sedative in women’s history; a quietly mad population is a tractable one.” - Naomi Wolf Find Jessica: https://www.instagram.com/whollyhealed/ https://whollyhealed.com/ If you love this episode, please leave a rating and review in iTunes.
