#122: Binge Eating Disorder, Male Body Image, Kids & Positive Body Image - interview with Aaron Flores

I’m interviewing Aaron Flores, about healing body image from a male perspective, how to teach kids to have a positive body image and taking a health at every size approach to healing binge eating disorder. We chat about:

- How Aaron’s path to intuitive eating and health at every size started by helping clients with weight loss and realizing the damage it was doing,

- Aaron’s struggles with body image and the steps he took to heal, 

- The importance of focusing on respecting your body instead of “loving” your body, 

- Different ways to teach kids how to have a positive body image, 

- How Aaron responded when his son came to him and was upset because someone had called him fat, 

- What characterizes binge eating disorder and makes it similar to binging in response to chronic dieting,

- How weight-stigma is trauma and the importance of addressing this in healing,

- How Aaron approaches BED from a health at every size, trauma-informed perspective, 

Plus, so much more!
