Show Notes
This week Tamsin is doing a solo episode for the first time since we started the podcast. She is exploring perimenopause/menopause and the lack of representation and support for anyone who isn’t a white, straight-sized, cis-gendered woman. When we go through this phase in our lives the focus seems to be weight gain and there's so much discussion around being body positive but with the underlying message that we need to lose weight. Tamsin shares the horrors that she found when she went looking for fat-positive, weight-inclusive support for menopause symptoms and surprised herself at what she uncovered!
Tamsin also shares some things to consider if you find yourself trying to navigate healing from diet culture while going through the menopause years.
This topic is huge and in this episode, Tamsin really scratches the surface of what could be a series of episodes!
Topics:
Menstruating and cycles
Anti-fat bias
Diet culture
Body shame
Dieting/weight loss
Eating disorders
Bariatric Surgery
Intermittent fasting
Pregnancy
Intuitive eating
Menopause
