In this episode of Women, Weight, and Food, hosts Roni and Anne discuss the often-overlooked habit of disassociation from our bodies through excessive learning and external validation. They reflect on personal experiences and group discussions about how the relentless pursuit of knowledge can distract us from the essential internal work needed for change, and true self-acceptance. Roni's powerful assertion that “diet and exercise are not acts of self-love” challenges traditional narratives about health and wellness, inviting listeners to reconsider what self-care really means. Join them as they encourage reconnecting with the body, embracing compassion, and stepping away from the never-ending cycle of trying to “fix” ourselves.
