Loving Our Bodies When They’ve Been a Source of Pain featuring Stephanie Weaver

Stephanie Weaver, author of the Migraine Relief Plan Cookbook joins The Body Myth for a conversation about the toll of chronic illness on her feelings of peace with her body, having undiagnosed disordered eating for 40 years, how being riddled with insecurity about her body distracted her from her life’s purpose, and the changes she’s made emotionally, physically and nutritionally to meet her body where it is.

Stephanie Weaver is a writer, speaking coach, and recipe developer based in San Diego, CA. She has a Master of Public Health in Nutrition Education from the University of Illinois. She’s the host of The Blue and Yellow Kitchen and The Resilience Series on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram. Her Migraine Relief Plan Cookbook will be out in July and is available for pre-order now.
