Let's be honest, being a young adult can suck. And having body dysmorphia or an eating disorder during this transformative time can make it suck even more. Between maintaining relationships, navigating friendships, exploring sexuality, and simply getting through day to day classes, your view on food, exercise, and priorities affect ALL of it. This is a podcast that cuts through all of the bullsh!t. I'm not afraid to ask the questions you might not want to and TO the people you might be nervous to talk about it with. On top of how your relationship with your body affects every aspect of your life, I'll walk you through facts that debunk everything you thought your eating disorder taught you (or even what your favorite influencer taught you). It's time to face the truth about your relationship with your body: it's pretty, hot, and taboo.
After a 1 year break, PHAT is back with a brand new perspective, new stories, but the same vibe. This episode is a short and slightly heavy episode about where the future of PHAT is headed and why it’s reborn. Enjoy!

What I Wish I Knew: BMI is BULLSHIT!!!!
Hey guys! Today I'll be talking about/reading my article I wrote on the Body Mass Index. This is WILD. You will not believe the history of the BMI and will question why it still exists! Hope you learn something! Please refer to the link below if you want an accurate way to "assess" your health. This is a Health Risk Assessment that can tell you your "real age" (your age health wise) and gives tips to improve it. https://www.sharecare.com/group/realagehttps://theconversation.com/using-bmi...

episode 3: is the freshman 15 even real???
Today I'm meeting with Dr. Enyeart-Smith, a professor at James Madison University who specializes in Health Behavior Change. We talk a LOT about not only the freshman 15 but behaviors and mindsets that lead to it as well. Not only that, but we also talk about unhealthy habits that happen as a result of the fear of freshman 15. The audio is a little funky (bare with me) but I hope y'all enjoy as much as Dr. Enyeart-Smith and I enjoyed recording it!
