Ep. 019: Barbara Spanjers "Dieting is a Symptom of a Bigger Issue"

Barbara Spanjers is a therapist and wellness coach who is hellbent on helping women banish the evil tag team of food-guilt and body-shame. She draws from a diverse educational and career background including media production, massage therapy, and psychotherapy. In her wellness coaching practice, Cake Is Magical Wellness, Barb takes a weight neutral approach to help her clients heal their relationship with food and their bodies. She offers a three-month program, Have Your CAKE (and Feel Peaceful, Too) to help clients move from a place of judgment and self-criticism to curiosity and self-compassion. For more information about the program, visit www.barbaraspanjers.com/haveyourcake. You can catch Barb at www.barbaraspanjers.com, where she infuses a sense of humor and irreverence into her writing. She fears no food (except beets) and loves to help others do the same.
