We're exposing the “war on childhood obesity” with Dr. Elizabeth Rathbun,' an esteemed clinical psychologist and certified intuitive eating counselor. In this deep and enlightening conversation we delve into the contentious topic of childhood obesity, challenging traditional perceptions and the stigma surrounding body weight. Dr. Rathbun shares her expert insights on why the 'war on obesity' is misguided, focusing instead on the significance of emotional well-being, stress, nutrition, and lifestyle as crucial factors in a child's overall health. This conversation aims to empower parents and practitioners alike to redefine health on their own terms and to offer support to the next generation without shaming their bodies.
