I talk with Amparo Penny, licensed therapist and health coach about common issues people have with the relationship between food and their bodies. Her passion for working with people with food or exercise obsessions stems from her own 20 year battle with disordered eating, dieting and over-exercise. We talk about her personal experiences, client struggles and strategies to break the black and white thinking about "good" and" bad" foods, restrictions and other common mindsets ingrained through diet culture. We end with 2 questions that came through my instagram: how do overcome stress or emotional eating that comes with anxiety in peri-menopause? How do tune out the "almond moms" who normalize diet culture? Amparo Penny, LCMHC is a licensed therapist and health and mindset coach based out of Asheville, NC. She helps people stop obsessing about food and their body and create healthy habits for life. She got into this work after her own 20+ year battle with disordered eating, yo-yo dieting, and using exercise and punishment. Now she is on a mission to help people improve their relationship with food and their body and stop sabotaging their health goals.
