Why your new years diet is failing you with Sam Berkowitz

If the diet was meant to work, we wouldn’t need to keep dieting! In this week’s episode we are joined by Sam Berkowitz a registered dietitian who helps individuals untangle their relationship with food to discover a life free of diet culture, guilt, and food rules. Sam takes a health at every size approach using intuitive eating practices.
