If you’ve ever felt confused about who to trust for nutrition advice, this episode will bring clarity.

There is so much information online about food, weight, health, intuitive eating, and GLP-1 medications. Some of it is helpful. Much of it is conflicting. And it can be incredibly difficult to know what actually applies to you.

In this conversation, I sit down with Amy Chow, RD, founder of BC Dietitians, to talk about what it really means to work with a registered dietitian in British Columbia. We discuss the difference between regulated dietitians and general “nutrition advice,” how dietitians are trained, and why the relationship between a client and a dietitian is so foundational, especially in eating disorder recovery and disordered eating support.

Amy shares her founder story and explains how BC Dietitians was created to make it easier for people to find qualified, specialized dietitians who truly match their needs. We also talk about collaboration between therapists and dietitians, why interdisciplinary care matters, and how to navigate nutrition advice online without getting overwhelmed.

If you’re looking for eating disorder support, help with emotional eating, chronic health conditions, or simply want to build a more balanced relationship with food, this episode will help you understand what professional nutrition care can actually look like.

You can browse dietitian profiles, read blogs and nutrition resources, explore community events, or request help being matched with a dietitian who fits your specific needs.

And if you are working on your relationship with food and body image and want support that integrates both therapy and nutrition care, this episode is a reminder that you do not have to navigate it alone.
