On Authentic Living Podcast Dawn Jenyce interviews Lisa Deck, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor.

Lisa explains how she shifted from being a chronic dieter to an anti-diet crusader. Dawn and Lisa discuss why women especially stay in diet culture even when it is harmful, and the intersection of health and weight.

Intuitive eating is a philosophy that emphasizes listening to your body's natural hunger and fullness cues and honoring your food choices.  It focuses on developing a healthy relationship with food and your body, rather than following strict diets or external rules.

Lisa Deck is the founder of Embody Collective, a forthcoming community for women divesting from diet culture. (Check www.embodycollective.com for updates!) 

She is a thought leader and women's advocate. She aims to make an impact by helping people reclaim self-trust and championing body respect for all. 

Above all, Lisa says that her best job is being a mom to three busy little boys.
