Similar to my own journey, Eden has had her own journey in disordered eating recovery and transitioning from selling weight loss to intuitive eating coaching. If you want to hear more about the important revelations that led to Eden’s decision, plus how sports nutrition fits into intuitive eating, you cannot miss this week’s episode!
Eden is a registered dietitian, former collegiate athlete turned mountain athlete, recovered disordered eater, and Intuitive Eating counselor (in training - she's in the process of becoming a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor). Eden majored in Psychology at Texas A&M, and after she was diagnosed with Female Athlete Triad in 2012, she decided to combine her undergraduate degree with a Master's Degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Georgia State University.
For Eden, the overlap between our psychological health and our nutrition choices is way more important than "eating healthy." Now, Eden helps active individuals realize that a fueled body performs better than a starved body, confidence comes from body acceptance (not weight loss), and we are capable of so much more than we realize when we finally stop trying to shrink our bodies and our personalities to please others.
In this episode we discuss:
Eden’s journey growing up as an athlete, becoming a college athlete and then choosing dietetics as a profession.
How athletics influenced her disordered eating, including her diagnosis of Female Athlete Triad.
Eden’s decision recently to leaving selling a popular weight loss program and what led to that decision.
Red flags Eden indicates that the weight loss program wasn’t true “food freedom” as its often promoted.
1-2 tips for how to approach sports nutrition from an intuitive eating lens.
How Eden lives wellness without obsession.
