Show Notes
This week we are joined by Rachael, a client of Tamsin’s who has a history of dieting through slimming clubs and always being the one who was the one sharing diet tips, bringing her own food to events, and obsessively navigating life around food and dieting.
She shares with us how becoming a mum and working in an industry that valued beauty and thinness left her lacking in confidence and unsure of a way out other than pursuing weight loss over and over again.
Her anti-diet journey began when she found the body positivity community and intuitive eating but with all those diet thoughts and desire for weight loss still taking up space in her mind, she knew she needed to get support. She shares her story of believing she was the problem to starting to put herself first and finding a peaceful relationship with food and her body.
