#123: Wellness & Fitness Culture - interview with Dr. Colleen Reichmann

I’m interviewing Dr. Colleen Reichmann, about the problems with wellness and fitness culture, how they hurt our mental health and how to heal an obsessive relationship with these things. We chat about: - How Colleen healed her eating disorder and went on to become a clinical psychologist who specializes in this field, - How she found health at every size and fat acceptance and incorporates this into her practice,  - The problems with wellness culture and why it is diet culture in disguise,  - Why we are so obsessed with wellness as a culture,  - Why our body and willpower is not the problem when it comes to having “control with food,”  - Why we both think the keto diet is the worst, - How to heal your obsessive relationship with wellness and fitness, - Why “strong is the new skinny” is so problematic and why extremes in fitness are not often acknowledged as disordered,  Plus, so much more!
