#118: How Diet Culture Impacts Your Career and Your Values with Rachel Garrett, Career & Leadership Coach
Manage episode 420479517 series 3325565
Have you ever thought about how diet culture has impacted your professional life, the career path you've chosen, or how you've been able to show up in that area of your life more generally?
In this conversation, Abbie is joined by career and leadership coach Rachel Garrett (who is also a client of Abbie's!). We explore Rachel's story with her body and food -- from childhood influences and coping mechanismsm, to her ongoing struggle with self-acceptance, and the constant pursuit of aligning her life with her values.
In particular, we focus on the intersection between diet culture and professional growth, the parallels between societal pressures in career and diet culture, focusing on productivity, appearance norms, and power dynamics.
Tune in to here more about the impact of diet culture on mental space, personal values, and professional achievements, along with the effects of childhood trauma on disordered eating behaviors.
Rachel Garrett is a Career and Leadership Coach supporting clients in designing careers on their own terms. With a combination of mindset shifting tools and personal branding know-how from her 15-year career in marketing, she inspires clients to confidently “speak elevator pitch", build out career paths based on their priorities and step into their worth. Prior to starting her coaching practice, Rachel built a successful career in digital and social marketing at brands like American Express, Reader’s Digest, and VNS Health. She is a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coaching Federation and lives in Brooklyn, New York. Rachel just celebrated one year of her anti-diet journey (WOOT!) after joining one of Abbie's group programs. It's been a healing time and also one of noticing how much her eating/body road has intertwined with her career failures and successes.
