#136 - Listener Q&A: Can I learn to like exercise? How do I address co-workers food shame?

Bernie and I are back with another special episode of Learn and
Grow where we answer questions from people who are reading and
listening to Body Kindness.


In this episode, Bernie Salazar and I respond to two listener
questions. Paula says she hates to exercise and though she wants
to get moving, she feels “stuck” because her most enjoyable
activities are performed in a chair or cozy sofa. We help her
think through options without judgment or shame.


Then, podcast listener Lytisha works in food justice and is
noticing how her co-workers may be unintentionally shaming how
she and others eat as the work is focused on increasing access to
fresh, wholesome foods.


We help her prepare to address the healthism and food shame she
sees happening with compassion and kindness.

Join me to “fund the future” of dietetics
I am on the advisory council for a much needed organization,
Diversify Dietetics, a non-profit committed to increasing
diversity in the field of nutrition. Less than 10% of nutrition
and dietetics professionals identify as people of color and our
communities need more dietitians from different races and
ethnicities so they can receive the highest quality, most
culturally appropriate care. Visit DiversifyDietetics.org and
click “donate” any amount. Your donation is tax deductible.
