Thank you so much for listening to this episode with Paige Smathers, RDN!

Today we spoke about:

✨ Why connection is so important in food and body image help, and in everyday life

✨ How Paige got into dietetics and how it fits into her personal qualities

✨ How an intuitive approach fits into business: what feels best?

✨ Social media can confuse the Intuitive Eating message - you can still eat veggies & nuance matters!

✨ Reclaiming your authority around both food and social media is important

✨ Making peace with ALL food is important… Cookies, donuts and Brussel sprouts, raspberries - take away that power of them being “superfoods”

✨ What is positive nutrition?

✨ Talking about nutrition as a nutrition professional isn’t taboo - it’s nuanced!
