"Body Image and Beauty Standards" with Christyna Johnson
"Body Image and Beauty Standards”
with Christyna Johnson
Christyna Johnson is a Dallas-based, Non-Diet Registered Dietician whose nutrition philosophy is rooted in the social justice framework of Health at Every Size (R) and seen through the lens of Intuitive Eating. After years of personally struggling with negative body image, disordered eating, and anxiety, Christyna is thankful that she has come to find a flourishing relationship with her body and food. She now loves helping others find that same freedom in their bodies and with food. As Christyna puts it, “Life was not meant to revolve around food and thoughts about our bodies. It’s a big world out there just waiting to be explored!”
I loved my conversation with Christyna. She’s so authentic, passionate, and just really fun to talk with. In our time together, she opened my eyes to aspects of cultural beauty and food that I hadn’t thought of before. It’s also so clear that Christyna is a compassionate advocate for her clients and anyone struggling in their relationship with food or their body. My hope is that as you listen, you might notice any subtle nudges or invitations within yourself to step into more freedom in your relationship with food or body image. Or maybe you’re needing to see the profound beauty in the authenticity of who you are. Either way, Christyna’s voice has been a great encouragement in my life. I hope that her voice may do the same for you.

The Interview
Are you tired of being sold a broken brand of beauty?
The brand of beauty we are so often sold is way too small. It divides and dis-integrates us. I am on a mission to expand and re-discover beauty, authentic beauty. I believe beauty is the life of God at work in us and among us. Will you join me in exploring that kind of beauty?
