Wendy Lopez and Jessica Jones are nationally recognized Registered Dietitians and Certified Diabetes Educators. They are the founders of Food Heaven – a multimedia platform originally founded for women and communities of color experiencing barriers to food, healthcare and nutrition education - and the newly launched Diabetes Digital - a trusted source for virtual personalized nutrition counseling dedicated to diabetes and prediabetes. In their highly successful podcast, videos, books and more, they dive deep into health and wellness topics with a lens on inclusivity and cultural competency.Wendy Lopez: “Needs vary based on what community you're talking about, what country you're in, what neighborhood you're in. Talking to the people that are impacted the most by the food system to learn more about what their needs are, what they would want out of a food system, is really important because they're the main stakeholders.”Jessica Jones: “It's also making sure that people have access not only to health promoting foods, but also culturally relevant foods. Because so often people want to come into communities and say, you should be doing this, or, these are the foods that are helpful. And it's like one list. But it's more effective, and we've seen this firsthand, trying to incorporate foods that people enjoy that are part of their cultures and not demonizing those foods.”00:12 Intro to Wendy and Jess01:55 The evolution of Food Heaven to Diabetes Digital03:46 How prioritizing cultural relevance builds inclusive, sustainable food systems06:35 Celebrating diversity to reduce stigma and shame08:09 Socioeconomic and cultural factors influence on choice10:42 Improving access to healthy, sustainable foods 12:50 Building trust through science and lived experiences15:01 How motivational interviewing balances nutrition advice and personal preferences 18:11 Embracing life's fluctuations21:08 Why growing a diverse support community can enhance impact24:14 The importance of embracing “fun” in business development26:47 Takeaways for changemakersLinksFood HeavenDiabetes DigitalDiabetes Digital PodcastMotivational Interviewing: An Evidence-Based ApproachKeep in TouchSubscribe, rate, review the show at foodlabtalk.comFollow Food Lab talk on YouTube and LinkedIn*The views expressed by the guests in this podcast don't necessarily represent the host's views, nor those of his employer.

In full transparency, this was the podcast I taped a few months back, right after I almost quit before I had even uploaded the first episode. What made me almost quit? FEAR. Fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear of saying the wrong thing, fear of perpetuating diet culture, fear of perpetuating fat phobia...etc. I ended up pushing past that fear and moving forward with starting this podcast, because at the end of the day, stepping outside of your comfort zone is where the magic happens. Ultimately, I may say the wrong thing at times, but hopefully people can understand my intent is always good and I am truly passionate about this topic, which is why I began this podcasting journey in the first place. Now that it's the New Year, I am even more determined to keep putting one foot in front of the other and consistently put out content that I am personally interested in.This podcast is a review of the Dear Media Studio show "Food Heaven" which features hosts Jessica Jones and Wendy Lopez, who are also Registered Dieticians. In this episode they discuss the Racial Origins of Fat Phobia w/ author Sabrina Strings, which was a fascinating conversation. I intertwine a review of The Taylor Strecker Show when she had co-host Mackenzie Green on and Mackenzie further illuminated this topic in very important ways. If you are interested in the intersection of racism, diet culture and fat phobia, you will love this episode. Tune in and enjoy!
