118. Navigating Parenthood and Eating Disorders With Dina Cohen, MS, RDN, CEDS-C
Manage episode 401924854 series 2973983
Parenthood can be both beautiful and stressful.
Firstly, it’s okay to admit that. There are no sick days, there is no PTO, you work 24/7 shifts and you get paid nothing. It’s sometimes a thankless job, and you’ll never get a break. But, it’s the toughest job you will ever love.
If we really dive into the rut of parenting, it can feel incredibly overwhelming, and sometimes it’s enough to send someone into a downward spiral. However, it’s hard to prepare for something like this. Until you actually become a parent, you can’t really explain to someone what it’s like to be one.
In this epsiode, I'm sitting down with Dina Cohen, and discussing all things parenthood and eating disorders.
Dina Cohen, MS, RDN, CEDS-C is a nutrition therapist who specializes in pediatric nutrition and the treatment of eating disorders. She is the founder of EatWellSoon, a nutrition counseling practice in Lakewood, NJ dedicated to helping individuals and families develop lifelong healthy habits and a positive relationship with food. Dina's favorite thing to do is help prevent eating disorders before they ever happen, and she speaks in schools, pediatrician's offices, and mental health clinics about eating disorder prevention and awareness. Dina lives with her husband, four daughters, and lots of talking in Toms River, NJ, where she learns new things about food every day.
