Aging Body Liberation w/ Deb Benfield | Szn. 1 Ep. 19

In this episode, Dr. Jenn interviews Deb Benfield, MEd, RDN/LDN, RYT of @agingbodyliberation.

Deb invites women to blaze a liberating new path to a respectful, nurturing relationship with their aging body. She has helped hundreds of women heal their relationship with food, eating, and their bodies in her more than 35-year career as a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist and Registered Yoga Teacher specializing in preventing and treating disordered eating.  

Now in her 60s, Deb focuses her research, training, clinical, and lived experience on the intersection of pro-aging and body liberation.  

Her work is rooted in helping women and this episode addresses:

• How to shift your relationship with your body from “life project” to “life partner”  

• How to nourish your body in midlife and beyond to support growing older in alignment with your values  

• Recognizing internalized ageism and ending it  

• Untangling and separating from the mess of diet/wellness culture
