The Full Plate Podcast with Abbie Attwood, MS
Health & Fitness:Nutrition
This is an episode you CANNOT miss. It encompasses the core of what we are doing on this show -- in divesting from diet culture, examining anti-fat bias, healing our relationship with food, and reclaiming body autonomy through weight-inclusive and fat-positive recovery.
Sharon Maxwell joins Abbie to talk about weight stigma in the medical field, in eating disorder treatment, and most importantly, what has been happening in the media with NEDA (the National Eating Disorder Association).
We unpack a lot of definitions upfront: what is weight stigma, how does it present in the eating disorder field, and how it impacts EVERYONE in EVERY type of body.
Sharon is a mental health advocate, fat activist, weight inclusive consultant, public speaker, and all around bad ass incredible rainbow goddess of a human being (I added that last part - Sharon, you should include that in your bio).
Sharon joined Full Plate on episode 64 and told her full story, so if you haven’t listened to that yet, werecommended doing that before or after listening to this episode. Another episode that is relevant and informative on this topic is a conversation with Shira Rosenbluth, which is episode 55.
