Ep52 Intuitive Eating with a Larger Body

Written By Elizabeth Harris

In this engaging conversation, the healing trio talks to Natasha (Tash) Ngindi, aka “The Thick Nutritionist,” about her personal story with weight loss and diet culture as well as her journey to body acceptance and Intuitive Eating. Tash also shares how healing her relationship with food and her body has shifted her relationship with movement and shares insights and personal experiences about moving past the fear of judgment with regard to body shape or size.

Some of the topics they discussed are:

  • The pressures linked with diet culture’s beauty ideals and how to move away from them

  • Promoting health without pursuing weight loss

  • Creating a life around who we are, apart from body shape and diet culture

  • How joyful movement can be such a boost to our self-image and health

“There’s truly nothing that makes you a better person…by losing weight.” - Tash Ngindi

About Tash:

…Dedicated to spreading the good news about intuitive eating, body acceptance, and the joy of engaging in enjoyable movement, Tash’s desire is to show you that you can be healthy at every size… We all deserve to live a fulfilling life, free of the pressures of diet culture.
