It’s no secret the dating world is complicated, especially when we are still working out the relationship we have with our own body and eating behaviors. Join the conversation with Karlee Golightly, a Registered Dietitian, Body Positive Yoga Teacher and the Mama of Moxie Mind.
We’ll talk about…
– Not letting your eating disorder define your body and worth. You are more interesting than your body.
– How to approach conversations about your relationship with food/body/exercise with someone new.
– The correlation between disordered eating and dating/sex patterns: AN vs BN.
– Recognizing triggering behaviors from someone you’re dating and how to talk about it.
– Navigating compliments and others’ views of your body.
– Dating in Denver culture: you don’t have to be a runner, into snowboarding, or like hiking 14’ers to go on dates.
