Embracing Body Changes and Aging with Robyn Goldberg

In this episode, we are joined by Robyn Goldberg, a registered dietitian nutritionist and author, to explore what happens when the pursuit of health actually disconnects us from ourselves. Robyn shares the behind-the-scenes journey of writing her book, The Eating Disorder Trap, and her mission to make eating disorder education accessible and inclusive for everyone. Together, we dive into the exhausting pressures of diet culture, from the rise of GLP-1 medications to the rigid rules facing athletes and dancers. We also talk openly about navigating the natural body changes that come with menopause and aging in a culture that values youth over wisdom. Robyn reminds us that our bodies are meant to evolve, and true body peace comes from stepping off the battlefield of control. Tune in as we discuss how to advocate for yourself at the doctor's office, drop the scale, and reclaim your relationship with food.Key TakeawaysEating disorders can affect individuals in larger bodies who may outwardly appear completely healthy.True medical well-being is informed by meaningful metrics rather than numbers on a scale.You have the right to refuse being weighed during your medical doctor visits.Navigating perimenopause and menopause requires internal self-acceptance rather than fighting natural body evolution.It is never too late to seek professional support for healing your relationship with food.ResourcesThe Eating Disorder Trap by Robyn Goldberg https://www.amazon.com/Eating-Disorder-Trap-Guide-Clinicians/dp/1631837761 Robyn Goldberg's Website: askaboutfood.comConnect with Nina and JennieNina Manolson M.A. Body-Peace® Founder & CoachStay connected & pick up your FREE Practicing Body-Peace Journal:⁠⁠ https://ninamanolson.com/practicingbodypeace/⁠⁠Contact: [email protected]:⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/bodypeacepodcast⁠Jennie Kramer LCSW-R,CEDSSubscribe to Jennie’s Newsletter & a complimentary 15min phone consult:⁠⁠ https://mbhany.com/connect-with-jennie/⁠⁠Contact: [email protected]
