54. A Conversation with Susie Orbach

In 1978, Susie Orbach wrote the groundbreaking book: Fat is a Feminist Issue (FIFI) to decontrust the role of dieting as oppressive to women. She has remained an author, psychoanalyst, advocate for women and women's bodies. In this episode, we discuss:

• Dieting is taking your agency back
• The beauty of hunger in all forms
• The mother’s body anxiety & feeding her baby as an origin of dysfunction
• The body, weight, and attention
• Why is the body so important as identity?
• Admiration versus connection
• Is there hope for the future?
• The Dove Campaign and body representation
