Today Heather is joined by author and board-certified physician, Dr. Mikala Albertson. In part one of this two part episode, Heather and Mikala discuss why women feel so much pressure to do and be everything and "look good doing it." They talk about control, striving, believing that we can control all of our health outcomes, and the pressure to be thin because of the belief that thin equals healthy. Heather asks Dr. Albertson what to do when your doctor makes you feel like your top focus should be weight loss and why doctors focus so much on weight and body size.
