Ep 276: What is an almond mom? and how to recover if you had one

from Fit Friends Happy Hour · host Katie Hake RDN, LD, CPT

Did you grow up with an ‘almond mom’ AKA  a mom who was stuck in the throes of diet culture?  If you answered yes, my guess is that it probably had a huge impact on your body image story.  When you hear things as you’re growing up like, “A moment on the lips, forever on the hips.” or “You’re probably not actually hungry, just bored.” It’s natural to become hyperfocused on your body and your weight. And even if your mom meant well - and most do - these words often leave scars. In fact, many of my clients have shared with me that they still can’t forget certain comments they heard about their bodies, even things they heard as early as grade school.  The point here is that you’re not alone, and those childhood experiences don't have to define your body story forever. Tune in to this episode to learn about how you can begin to write the next chapter and heal your relationship with food and your body.  Connect with The Katie: Book a Free Strategy Call | www.katiehake.com/schedulhttps://www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/0221p16.shtmle Join The Free Community | https://www.facebook.com/groups/fitfriendshappyhourpodcast/Text me your AHA moment from today's episode!
