Heather continues her conversation with author and board-certified physician, Dr. Mikala Albertson. In part two of this two-part interview, Heather and Mikala discuss why women feel so much shame around weight and BMI and how what's most healthy for some women is going to be to not focus on weight loss, especially if they have a lot of stress, grief, or change they are experiencing. You'll appreciate Dr. Albertson's honesty and genuine encouragement as she talks about the nuance of weight, health, and the pressures Christian women feel in this arena.
