Queers Against Diet Culture

Queers Against Diet Culture

Queers Against Diet Culture is a radically queer, anti-diet podcast hosted by health coach and nutritionist Riah Spivey. This is a safe space for queers of all sizes to unlearn toxic food rules while reclaiming body autonomy.

Together, we’ll laugh, heal, and remind ourselves that joy is the real rebellion.
