🚨 What if health wasn’t about shrinking your body, but about thriving in it? 🚨

For decades, we’ve been told that aging means slowing down, gaining weight, and fighting an uphill battle to stay "healthy." But what if we’ve been looking at it all wrong? Taylor Wolfram, RDN, is flipping the script on diet culture and showing us how food can be a source of empowerment—not restriction. 🌱💪

🔥 Why weight does not define health—and how to break free from years of toxic diet messaging
🔥 The truth about intuitive eating & food freedom—so you can finally stop obsessing and start living
