Naomi Charalambakis Wilkerson

Naomi sits down with Dr. Dianne Neumark-Sztainer of the University of Minnesota to chat about how she became interested in weight-related problems among young people, and how this work culminated into her now thriving research lab, "Project EAT" (Eating and Activity over Time). Topics that emerge from the discussion include: yoga and mindfulness and its connection to eating disorder/disordered eating recovery, the role of family meals in the development of weight-related problems, and her book, "'I'm, Like, So Fat!': Helping Your Teen Make Healthy Choices about Eating and Exercise in a Weight-Obsessed World."
