Summary

Linda Bacon is a brilliant professor, speaker, and author (plus so much more) who is full of wisdom on all things related to diet, health and nutrition. She is known for challenging standards about health and weight set by society and science. This episode covers not only topics related to health and weight but to also making life as a whole beautiful and what that means. We talk about seeing the importance of pleasure and community. My favorite part of todays conversation is about 20 minutes into the episode where Linda shares a powerful story that illustrates discrimination and the power it can have even in subtle ways.

1:29.8	actually re-listen to it right before I'm recording this intro right now. And I recorded this
