How to Eat the Way We Were Designed with Leslie Schilling. Episode 274

Hey friend! So many women have (or have had) a complicated relationship with food, our bodies, or both. If you want to kick the lies of diet culture to the curb, this is a conversation you do not want to miss!

My friend Leslie Schilling is a dietician and nutrition therapist who owns Schilling Nutrition, LLC, where she works in private practice helping people move toward health with a non-diet approach. 

Leslie is also an award-winning author of two books, including her latest, Feed Yourself: Step Away From the Lies of Diet Culture and Into Your Divine Design. 

She is a mom who wants a legacy that is better than body hatred for the next generation and freedom for our generation, too. 

Lean in and listen as Leslie and I talk about: 

• How Leslie went from traditionally practicing sports nutrition to where she is today 
• Disordered eating practices that are often considered healthy in our culture
• The issues social media can cause in our relationships with food and our bodies
• Why weight loss and health promotion are not the same 
• The divine nature of body diversity 
• Leslie’s number one rule for getting back to eating the way we were designed to
