Description

In this episode of the Diabetes Digital Podcast, we talk with Gila Glassberg, an Orthodox Jewish dietitian and intuitive eating counselor, about body respect in modest communities.

We explore the meaning of modesty, common stereotypes, and how cultural values influence body image. Gila also shares practical ways to build confidence and body appreciation while staying true to personal and religious values. This conversation opens the door to more inclusive discussions on body respect across cultures.
