We are SO excited to finally share a DIET and NUTRITION episode and delighted to welcome Shehnaz Bashir AKA .dietitian to have this important conversation! 🍏

Diagnosed at 17 years old, after a long period undiagnosed and unheard, Shehnaz felt a massive lack of nutritional support. This experience inspired her to study Nutrition and Dietetics herself. Shehnaz’s personal experience and insight allow her to relate to patients, make them feel heard and help them advocate for themselves. 🗣️
