In this episode of In Between Sessions, Lili sits down with non-diet, weight-inclusive dietitian Janean Gardea to talk about what it means to rebuild your relationship with food and body from a place of compassion and care. With humor, warmth, and real-life examples, Janean explains how diet culture can disconnect us from our hunger cues, how to tune back in, and why Intuitive Eating isn’t about doing it “perfectly,” it’s about learning to trust yourself again.
They explore how food impacts mental health, how to notice when your inner critic is driving your eating choices, and how to reframe care from control to connection. Janean shares thoughtful, actionable insights on how to feel more grounded and less overwhelmed in your relationship with food.
