The discussion explores how cultural expectations, intergenerational trauma, and systemic barriers impact the experience of disordered eating in People of Colour (POC).
They also examine how traditional foods are often labeled as “unhealthy” within Western narratives, and how hustle culture and medical bias influence perceptions of health.
