427: Is Set Point Theory Fat Phobic with Body Image Expert Bri Campos

Set point theory is a VERY popular discussed conversation in the anti-diet space, and one of the most common topics discussed with clients in our virtual practice. When working with clients, we can get into the nuance behind why we get focused on “finding” our set point, but that can be harder to do for you, my wonderful podcast community! So I asked body image expert, Bri Campos, to come on the show today to discuss some of that nuance to set point theory and why we often fixate on it in hopes it may mean we will lose weight as an intuitive eater. We also talk to fellow coaches and providers in this episode, giving you lots to think about if you work in the body image space. Listen to today’s episode to learn more! Brianna (or Bri) Campos is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of NJ. She works as a body image coach & is passionate about teaching women about Health at Every Size (HAES) and taking an all foods fit approach to finding freedom with food and learning to make peace with your current body.  In this episode we discussed: What’s changed in Bri’s life since she was last on the show back in 2019! Misconceptions that providers have about their ability to coach on body image with their clients, and how to better coach your clients. The pro’s and con’s to the education around set point theory and how this conversation can at times be misguided? Other popular themes with body image that providers share that may miss the mark when it comes to coaching on body image. How Bri is currently living wellness without obsession.
