In this week’s episode, I sat down with Julie Dillon, an RD who has spent years supporting folks at the intersection of PCOS and disordered eating. And we explore a different path. One that’s rooted in the truth that your body is not broken—and that real care doesn't require body control, food stress, or fear.

Tune in for more on:

* What PCOS really is (fun fact: it starts in the brain)

* Why it is misunderstood and so often mistreated

* How diet culture sneaks into PCOS care and what it costs us

* What it looks like to manage symptoms without restriction or weight loss goals

* The grief, anger, and healing that come with letting go of shame

* Julie’s favorite “first steps” to take with food when it comes to PCOS

* What true support can feel like, especially when you're still figuring it out

If you’ve ever felt like food became the enemy in your attempt to feel better, this conversation is for you.About Julie: Julie Duffy Dillon is a Registered Dietitian and Host of Find Your Food Voice®, a popular long running nutrition podcast.
