Summary
Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.
This week I’m talking, for the first time ever on a hoovering to a CBT therapist - not my one, one called Devinia Noel who specialises as intuitive eating counselling and who is better known on Instagram as at diet boycott - we met on the Hungry Feminist crossover episode and as you’ll hear is madly articulate when it comes to what diets really do to us. Amazing to get an expert perspective on something so important.
