MAHA, diet culture, and toxic fitness ideals...this is the second half of my conversation with Ilya Parker.

Ilya Parker, founder of Decolonizing Fitness, joins Abbie to share how gender transition, weight stigma, and ableism shaped their path into fitness and ultimately inspired a new vision for movement.

Julie Duffy Dillon, RD joins Abbie to talk about PCOS (Policystic Ovary Syndrome), how it intersects with diet culture, and why dieting and weight loss are not actually evidence based approaches to managing this health condition.

This might be my favorite conversation we’ve had on this podcast. It's a conversation I had with Edie Stark (an ED therapist) and Sharon Maxwell (a fat activist and weight-inclusive consultant), and we’re answering a very important – very hard – listener question.

In this listener-favorite episode, Debra Benfield, RDN joins the pod to speak with me about the intersection of diet culture, anti-fatness, and anti-aging.

Dr. Colleen Reichmann—a clinical psychologist, author, and eating disorder specialist—joins me this week to talk about hopelessness and despair in eating disorder recovery.

Lately, intermittent fasting has been getting more attention as a possible approach for women in midlife. And as with most health trends, this has sparked a lot of questions — and just as many opinions.

Vinny Welsby (@fiercefatty) joins me for a lot of laughs this week, but mostly for a deeply important conversation about the dangers of weight-centric medical care.

Nutritionist and eating disorder expert Chris Sandel joins me on the pod to unpack one of the most pivotal (and haunting) studies in nutrition science: the Minnesota Starvation Experiment.

Abbie is joined by Dr. Rachel Millner — a brilliant, deeply compassionate psychologist and fat liberationist (and return guest!) — to talk about the overlap between GLP-1 use and disordered eating.

This week on the podcast, I’m joined by the brilliant and deeply compassionate Dr. Jennifer Caspari, a psychologist who specializes in health psychology and lives with cerebral palsy.

In this bonus episode, I’m answering a listener question that so many of us have carried, even quietly: Why does seeing a photo of myself — especially in a group — make me want to shrink my body, even though I know better?

This week on Full Plate, we’re revisiting a powerful episode from two and a half years ago (how?!) with Jessica Wilson — a clinical dietitian, author, and speaker whose work continues to shape this field in profound ways.

If you’ve been intrigued by all the benefits that intermittent fasting claims to offer, you are not alone, and this week’s podcast episode is for you. I’m joined by a special — and beloved (so you’ve told me) returning guest — my husband, Jeb!

This week, Abbie and Dr. Nicola Sykes are talking about the impact of an energy deficit on our hormonal health — from hypothalamic amenorrhea, to digestive function, to long-term bone health, and everything in-between.

In this week’s episode I'm joined by Lex, a client I've worked with for many years now. She is incredibly special to me. We began working together when she was in high school struggling with an eating disorder and unable to participate in the sport she loves, and she recently graduated college.

This week on the Full Plate Podcast, Abbie is joined by Fat-Positive Sex Therapist Noelle Benach. In this conversation, Abbie and Noelle delve into the intricate relationship between food, body image, intimacy, and sexual health.

Desiree Adaway joins the pod to help us through hard conversations in politics, body liberation, and beyond.

Anti-Diet Dietitian Leah Kern joins the pod to discuss her experience with all the ways that the “crunchy granola identity” can create a funnel into disordered eating, body image struggles, and overall suffering.

Paulette Stout joins the Full Plate Podcast this week to discuss writing fiction about eating disorders, and specifically, stories that challenge cultural norms around food and bodies.
