Body Acceptance, Anti-Diet Culture, and Midlife Wellness Without Shame with Stacy Toth
If you’ve ever felt trapped in diet culture or struggled to fully accept your body, this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air. Wendy sits down with Stacy Toth to unpack the deep-rooted impact of fatphobia, body shame, and societal conditioning—especially for women in midlife.
