How to Get Your Partner to Eat Healthy

Dr. Rachel Vanderbilt is a relationship scientist whose research examines how we communicate in our romantic relationships.  She's also the new host of the Relationship Doctor podcast, where she shares evidence-backed strategies on how to live, love, and communicate with your partner.

In this interview, Rachel and I talk about how our intimate relationships impact our food and nutrition choices -- and vice versa.  

We delve into scenarios that come up in many relationships, such as:

  • You tell your partner that you want to make some changes in your habits in order to lose weight and they tell you that you don’t need to lose weight because you’re perfect the way you are.
  • You tell your partner that you’re trying to cut down on sweets and snacks and it would help you to not keep those foods in the house, but they don’t see why they should have to go without those foods.
  • Your partner wants to overhaul what or how your family eats, but you’re happy with things the way they are.
  • You're worried about your partner's unhealthy eating habits. 

For each of these common situations, Rachel helps us understand what might really be driving our partner's behavior or reactions -- and how to have more productive conversations about food and health with our loved ones.
