S7 EP20: Why Diets Don't Work

Today we have special guest Camille Martin on the podcast.
Camille is a registered dietician and public health writer. Her

lose weight without dieting. Because of her difficult past with
the diet industry she has strong feelings about the problems that
can result from diet culture. Listen to her conversation with
