Welcome to Beyond the Hot Flash, the podcast that reframes what's possible in midlife and beyond. In this episode, we're honored to have a truly special guest, Deb Benfield, a registered dietitian nutritionist with over three decades of experience.
Deb is leading a movement to help women heal their relationship with food and their bodies. We dive into the most challenging parts of aging—the feeling of invisibility, the pressure of diet culture, and the unexpected return of disordered eating behaviors in midlife.
This conversation is a fierce and compassionate guide to reclaiming your wisdom and vitality. We explore why your body is a partner, not a project, and how to embrace the profound power that comes with becoming an "elder."
About Our Guest: Deborah Benfield is a registered dietitian nutritionist and the author of the upcoming book, Unapologetic Aging: How to Mend and Nourish Your Relationship with Your Body. She is dedicated to helping women find freedom from diet culture and embrace aging with compassion and joy.
