Sobre este episodio
Sam Abbott (@pcos.nutritionist) is back on the pod to share something near and dear to her heart: reality television. In this episode, Melissa and Sam talk about the way reality TV portrays stories about body image, diet culture, and eating disorders. We explore storylines from the Real Housewives franchise, Love is Blind, Love Island, Selling Sunset, and more. We hope you’ll learn how to use your body image skills to enjoy the “escapism” of these shows without activating disordered thinking, eating or body image struggles. We talk about how to challenge harmful body norms that impact both your individual anti-diet work and society as a whole. Sam is a fellow registered dietitian nutritionist who helps those with PCOS ditch diets, improve insulin resistance and balance hormones without feeling guilty or stressed about food. She is the owner of PCOS Nutrition Company, where nutrition coaching services are centered around improving hormone balance without a side of diet culture or weight stigma. Sam is passionate about empowering people with PCOS to find peace and balance with nutrition, hormones, body and life.
