Why Diet Culture is Just Icing On The Cake with Jessica Wilson

  • Summary

  • It's comfortable and increasingly normalised to criticise and speak to dismantling diet culture. Yet without interrogating what upholds diet culture  we harm everyone and leave actual liberation behind. In this episode I am joined by queer, disabled Dietitian, Author and Community Organiser Jessica Wilson for a deeply thought provoking and insightful exploration of Health and all that gets lumped in with it including intuitive eating and diet culture. Including:

    • the loud messages that a body is supposed to be healthy at all times and there’s set ways to do that with the messages coming from powerful places
    • how this is inherently political and always has been
    • who is left out of consideration when it comes to eating disorder treatment, dietetic practice and both wellness and healthcare generally 
    • who is intuitive eating for?
    • when we swap dieting for intuitive eating - what is missing ?
    • why just dismantling "diet culture" isn't enough and what we do need instead
