It’s trending to call things "diet culture", but today we're diving into what exactly is diet culture, and what isn't. Between getting salad dressing on the side, labeling food as good or bad, and those infamous GG crackers, we are tackling it all. The truth is, the why behind your choices is what matters most, and we're empowering you to choose what feels best in your own body so you never fall victim to diet culture. Enjoy our final episode of season 2!

Today we’re joined by the incredible Samah Dada of @dadaeats, who shares about her life as a cookbook author & Instagram personality, silver linings from her PCOS diagnosis, and how her Indian culture shaped her wellness experience & her career. Samah talks with us about her own self-love journey and what it’s like to not drink alcohol as a 20-something in NYC. It’s a juicy one and we hope you enjoy!
