The MisFitNation Welcomes Lori Brand: Unveiling the Truth About Diet Culture

On the next episode of The MisFitNation, hosted by Rich LaMonica, we welcome Lori Brand, an author with a compelling story and a deep understanding of Diet Culture. Lori's journey through various roles—gymnast, stripper, Playboy model, bodybuilder, and fitness instructor—has provided her with unique insights into the pervasive impact of Diet Culture.

Lori's awakening began in fourth grade, when she witnessed her dance instructor's extreme weight-loss measures. Throughout her life, whether in the gym or the workplace, she encountered relentless pressure to conform to societal standards of beauty and health. However, it was her shift from focusing on weight loss to building strength that truly liberated her. This transformation not only fortified her physically but also mentally, empowering her to expect and demand better in all areas of her life.

In 2020, Lori was struck by the backlash against figures like Jillian Michaels and Adele, which highlighted the polarizing nature of the Diet Culture debate. This inspired her to write "BODIES TO DIE FOR," a book dedicated to all women impacted by these societal pressures. Lori's book explores the tension between wellness and body acceptance, advocating for a world where women support and uplift each other.

Lori believes that strong women lift each other up, and her work is a call to action for us to create a world that is supportive and empowering for future generations.
