The conversation that has been living rent free in Kat's head for months is now here. And she is THRILLED to have Registered Dietitian AND Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, Caroline Shermer, here to process it all with her. In this episode Kat and Caroline talk about their frustration felt while watching vulnerable populations who are desperate for help be taken advantage of by creative social media marketing tactics. You'll also hear about the latest buzzwords that are being co-opted by influencers (hello gut microbiome) to catch your attention and sell you anything and everything you don't need. Lastly, they discuss how they individually have learned to maintain their own moral and ethical guidelines while engaging in social media in their respective businesses.
More about Caroline: Caroline provides nutrition counseling empowering her clients to discover all they are meant to be and meant to eat apart from their eating disorder. She sees clients virtually nationwide and in person in Nashville TN at her private practice, Meant To Eat Nutrition Counseling. You can find her on meanttoeat.com and@meanttoeat on Instagram!
