Dialogue: Can food be addictive?

This is our first dialogue episode on the podcast. In it, we have Libby Supan, a therapist and certified intuitive eating counselor and David Wiss, a registered dietitian with a PhD in public Health. We're coming together to talk about food addiction.

I hesitated a lot before publishing this episode.

This was a difficult conversation in ways that both guests had predicted and hoped to avoid. At many points, we unwittingly highlight the challenges of conversing across ideological divides while immersed in the level of stress these conversations trigger. We also share with you our very raw and human attempts at moving through these and back toward each other. I’ve since processed individually with both Libby and David so I can create a safer space in the future.

I'm afraid that you’ll listen and be pulled toward one narrative or one person’s presentation and assume bad intentions on the part of the other. The urge to pick a side is so natural and expected. And I hope that, alongside that, you’ll remember that what you see of each person is only snapshots, not the entirety of who they are. We all entered this conversation with the same goal: to build bridges between us and become better humans and clinicians.

To hear more from David, check out the episode "Ultra Processed Food Addiction: What it is, what it’s not, & why it matters."
