Anna M. chats with Dr. Georgie Buckley, a dietitian and postdoctoral researcher who currently works as an eating disorder and body image consultant. Georgie is also a queer, neurodivergent woman, and a trauma survivor with a history of an eating disorder.
They discuss:
The nature of disordered eating and body image issues are among pre-teen, teen and collegiate athletes. The things that need to happen not just to raise more awareness, but shake things up so prevention becomes a core tenet of all youth and school sports programs. How youth sports has evolved into a system where kids tend to be pushed to specialize earlier than in previous decades, and the impact this can have on a young athleteās mental and physical health. Ways for a parent or caregiver to handle a situation where a pre-teen or teenager expresses anxiety about their body, their weight, or their food intake.Links:
Georgieās Website Sunny Side Up Nutrition Podcast Lutz, Alexander & Associates Nutrition Therapy Pinney Davenport Nutrition https://thirdwheeled.com/ https://m8.design/ https://www.sonics.io/About Georgie: I have a Bachelor of Science, a Master of Nutrition, a Master of Dietetic Practice and a PhD in psychology. I.e. I'm a very proud education lover who spent many many years in Universities and can contextualize the experiences we have through academic literature...not to mention critique the massive gaps research can offer the most marginalized of us. My PhD explored disordered eating in current and former athletes, whilst critiquing the systems and cultures that cause and maintain disruptions to our food and body relationship.
I have worked in and alongside prestigious international universities, major sporting organizations and inclusive clinical eating disorder settings. My favorite places to work are the ones that value the individual and their experiences, ones that understand how inequity happens, and ones that value an individual for who they are at their core - their chaos and messiness included. This is what I bring to my consulting work.
For me, I am so lucky and grateful to have recovered from my own eating disorder and body image concern experiences. I have also learnt to accept my own brain and body and appreciate nothing more than joyful experiences with food and gentle movement. I competed at a top national level in athletics for over 10 years and will always have a special interest in protecting those who are vulnerable and marginalized in sporting environments.

Family feeding is my passion, but people are often surprised to find out that I care a lot more about how your family feels about food than exactly what youāre eating! Donāt get me wrong, as a dietitian and as a parent myself, I absolutely believe that all children (and adults!) deserve and will benefit from great nutrition. I hope to help you achieve that. But without the foundation of a healthy relationship with food, gentle nutrition is a lot harder to put into practice.As parents and caregivers, our own relationships with food and our bodies will influence our childrenās approach to these things more than any other factor. Because of this, Tiny Seed Family Nutrition works with both children and adults to put positive family feeding dynamics into practice and heal food-related issues brought on by medical conditions or years of chronic dieting.

Anna, Anna and Elizabeth discuss how a proliferation of problematic and sometimes outright false nutrition information on social media makes it increasingly difficult for parents and teens to discern good nutrition information from bad.
We discuss:
The problem with popular accounts that claim theyāre anti-diet, weight inclusive, and aligned with Responsive Feeding, but a closer look reveals that their content is not actually aligned with these principals. How brief sound bites such as those on Tik Tok and IG Reels arenāt sufficient to provide feeding advice. The problem with messages suggesting that some foods are better than others, and the negative impact this can have on parents and kids. How encouraging parents to talk to children about food in ways that are not age appropriate only serves to confuse kids.Links:
