I read this book when it was first published and decided to listen to the author read the audiobook a couple of weeks ago, which I highly recommend. Hearing Jessica's voice allowed the many lessons to land more deeply for me as a white, straight-sized, hetero-, cis, able-bodies old woman who works as an RD in the eating disorder field. I've learned countless lessons about how I mess up both personally and professionally from Jessica's podcast and social media presence and this book continued my unlearning and learning. As Jessica says, she speaks her truth clear and concisely and I appreciate that greatly. I highly recommend this book to all of us.
