22. Culture and Motivations for Dieting with Steph Ng

Diet culture is prevalent in the United States. No shocker there! But here's the thing: diet culture is ubiquitous worldwide. My guest today, though she grew up in culture very different from United States culture, still developed a severe eating disorder.  In today's episode, I talk with the amazing Steph Ng who's recently taken over the anti-diet space to share an interesting Chinese cultural stance and how different (and similar) our struggles are. We discuss: How Steph developed an eating disorder growing up in China How culture affects how women view food and bodies Why women diet in China (and it's not necessarily to be thinner) How to create your own treatment plan when quality eating disorder treatment isn't available to you and so much more!
