Friday, April 26th 9:00-11:00AM
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.
Space is limited!
