  • 49: Beyond the Mirror: Understanding the Connection Between Body Image and Disordered Eating with Dr Zali Yager
    2026/10/06
    From social media to diet and gym culture, messages about our bodies and the pressure to look a certain way are everywhere. Over time, these influences can shape how we see ourselves, how we eat and exercise, and even the messages we pass on to the next generation.

    In today’s webinar, we break down why body dissatisfaction is so common, where it comes from, and its connection with self-esteem, mental health and disordered eating.

    We will explore when seemingly healthy behaviours can become restrictive or obsessive, and the signs that someone may be struggling with an eating disorder. We’ll also look at how parents, schools and sporting communities can help young people develop a healthier relationship with food and their bodies and determine which prevention programs work, and which don’t.

    Dr Zali's Biography:

    Our guest today is Dr Zali Yager. An internationally recognised body image researcher with two decades of expertise in body image, eating disorder prevention and health education. She is an author and Co-Executive Director of The Embrace Collective, which she co-founded alongside 2023 Australian of the Year Taryn Brumfitt.

    Dr Yager has helped develop and deliver evidence-based body image programs and resources reaching more than one million Australian children. She has taken her mission to prime ministers, professors and presidents, from Parliament House in Australia to the White House in the USA and has advised organisations including the AFL.

    2026/09/08
    Clearhead acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and acknowledges their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the Elders past and present.

    Suicide rates among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are more than three times those of non-Indigenous Australians. In this episode, we will explore First Nations approaches to developing indigenous models of psychology and suicide prevention projects and how they differ from Western models. We learn the importance of empowering communities to develop solutions that reflect their own strengths, knowledge, and lived experience, which includes the impact of colonisation, trauma and racism.
