This is episode one of season 3 of Nope, That’s Not Normal! This season, we’re exploring the idea of “zooming out” from diet culture. So often, we’re told to zoom in on that one food, that one body part, that one way of looking—and each episode in this season will give us a unique perspective that allows us to zoom out as a way to heal our relationship with food and our body. We hope you enjoy each and every episode we’ve worked so hard to bring you this season!
In this episode, Jessica and Chrissy dig into the complexities of body image, diet culture, and the concept of body liberation. They share about personal experiences with diet culture, the societal pressures surrounding body image, and the importance of understanding health beyond individual control. Chrissy emphasizes the need for collective liberation and the systemic issues that affect marginalized bodies, while also addressing the significance of body autonomy and the challenges of navigating societal expectations regarding body size and health.
