"Mom, I'm a vegan now," with Julie Nowak, M.Ed.
Season 3, Episode 55, Apr 22, 2020, 04:01 AM
Activist and educator Julie Nowak joins us to discuss food justice and body positivity. She helps us respond to a question from a listener concerned about her daughter’s new veganism and its possible connection to body image concerns. We explore the intersection between food/environmental activism and body positivity — and where there is room for both movements to incorporate the ideas of the other. We also discuss warning signs for orthorexia and Julie’s advice for parents about engaging your kids in conversations about intersectional food justice.
