Fatphobia & Racial Exclusion in Dietetics w/ Veronica Garnett

The most visible voices in the Health At Every Size / Intuitive Eating movement are white and thin. Ironic and frustrating since this movement was created to promote size inclusivity, as well as race, sexuality, disability, and gender inclusivity. Today we’re talking with fat positive dietitian Veronica Garnett about fatphobia within the field of nutrition, honoring culture through food, and how we as health professionals can work together to make sure diverse voices are heard and represented.    We’ll cover:    -Veronica’s experience as a fat black woman in dietetics  -How Veronica has learned to navigate fat phobia when dealing with colleagues, family, & friends  -As health professionals who practice HAES, things we can do to amplify the voices of fat people -& MORE!    For our resources and shownotes, visit foodheavenmadeeasy.com/podcast.   HOOKUP CODES: GoMacro: www.gomacro.com and use promocode: humans for 30% off plus free shipping for a limited time   Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
