Bite Back with Rozanna Purcell

This week, Roz talks to Dr Hazel Wallace, aka The Food Medic, who shares her professional perspective on diet culture and the long term effect excessive dieting can have on our bodies. As a medical doctor, with a special interest in nutrition, Hazel helps empower us with the knowledge we need to understand how our bodies respond to these pressures.

From Instagram perfection to fad diets, Estée Lalonde opens up to Roz about her battle with self acceptance and how she rationalises social media whilst being in the limelight. Giving an incredibly personal account of life behind the likes, Estée and Roz shed home truths about how everyone is susceptible to low self worth, even when you look like you're living your best life.

In this first episode, we meet the host of Bite Back, Roz Purcell, as she opens up about her complicated relationship with food and her body. In this moving and refreshingly real episode, Roz shares her story in the hope that this will inspire others going through something similar to seek help and rediscover the pleasure of food, free from restrictions.

This week psychologist and curator of Food and Psych, Kimberley Wilson joins Roz to shed some light on the role food plays in our mental health, including disordered eating. Providing a professional insight into the behaviours that occur during this turbulent time, there is so much to learn when it comes to our emotional relationship with food. This podcast is full of reminders that we are so far from alone, and that help is out there if you're suffering.

Award-winning filmmaker and lifestyle YouTuber Melanie Murphy joins Roz as she shares her journey with an eating disorder. As someone who has reached over sixty million people with her video content, Melanie talks about how she continues to promote a balanced relationship with food in her life in order to maintain a healthy body and mind.
