153. Fundamentally Disagree? The key to navigating challenging situations and interactions with Jenna Hollenstein, MS, RD, CDN

Understanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image Healing

You know that feeling when a conversation veers off the rails, but you can’t look away because the train wreck is oddly fascinating? Yeah, we’re about to do that—but in a way that will make you think, “Wait, why aren’t more people talking about this?”

In this episode, I’m joined by Jenna Hollenstein. Together, we’re talking about what’s happening in the field, how we navigate division, and what it looks like to move from conflict to connection.

Spoiler alert: it’s not glamorous, but it’s worth it.

Jenna Hollenstein, MS, RDN, CDN, is an anti-diet dietitian-nutritionist, certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, speaker, meditation teacher, and author of five books, including Eat to Love and Intuitive Eating for Life.
