Stepping into Your Role as a Business Owner with Heather Rudalavage

This week I'm talking to Philly-area dietitian Heather Rudalavage. She takes a weight-neutral and health-at-every-size approach with her clients to help them achieve their health goals with compassion, empathy and a dash of humor! We are talking about how diets don't work, how to manage stress eating during COVID-19, and how our default reaction to health problems is going on a diet and trying to lose weight. Our conversation includes:   Heather's life growing up and not ever thinking about diets or weight loss.  She became a dietitian and felt like she was "doing something wrong" because she wasn’t fixated on weight loss and food rules like the rest of the world.  Her first moments questioning her body came around the time of her three pregnancies and becoming a mom.  Once she was a mom and questioning her body for the first time ever, her diet attempts never lasted longer than 24 hours.  She started a private practice called Intuitive Nutrition before she knew anything about intuitive eating and the Intuitive Eating book by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.  How she works in a doctor’s office and hears about various health concerns where people automatically default to weight loss as the “cure”. The importance of reflecting on a patient’s history with weight loss and if it hasn’t improved specific health parameters in the past, this is a sign that weight loss is not the answer.  The dangers of starving your body coupled with jumping into intense exercise. The trouble with having orthorexic thinking and cutting out foods in an effort to improve health when the focus could be, “what can I ADD to my diet”. How cutting out foods or intermittent fasting can lead to binges on that food.  Stress and emotional eating during this time of COVID-19 and being on lockdown, businesses closing, homeschooling, dealing with sick family members and loss - and how it wakes up a “sleeping dragon” within us.  When things feel as out of control as they do during this pandemic, some of us are eating for comfort and others are restricting.  Forms of self-care we can seek out during this stressful time. Checking in with yourself and asking “What do I need at this moment?” How we tend to go on autopilot with mindless eating and need to stop and ask “am I hungry” to determine if it’s really food we need or something else.  How we can move our bodies in ways that work for us. It doesn’t have to be a grueling hour-long workout.  Heather offers insight and tips to help you along on your intuitive eating journey, even during these sticky, stressful times.

36. Intuitive Eating and Health Without Weight Loss with Heather Rudalavage, RD, LDN

Dear Listener, I am so excited to bring you our FIRST guest interview of 2020! Tune into today’s episode to hear a conversation I had with Heather Rudalavage, a fellow HAES® aligned, non-diet Registered Dietitian. Heather lives in Philadelphia and is the owner of her private practice, Intuitive Nutrition. She helps individuals relax around food with compassion, empathy, and dash of humor (so you can imagine how well we get along)! In this episode, she shares what HAES® means to her and describes how she incorporates its principles into her everyday work with her clients. She also offers some very tactical tips around the scale and how to approach medical providers whose only recommendations are to “lose weight.”If you’d like to learn more about Heather and her work, you can find her on Instagram @haesphillyrd or visit her website, www.intuitive-nutrition.com! Yours Chewly, Claire
