She's the pushy broad from the Bronx, New York. I'm the pushy Broad from the Bronx. We're talking about body image and social media with my special guest, Dana Wells, who is going to do her own show on the Transformation Network, I believe sometime in the early spring.
Scrolling through Instagram or TikTok can be a minefield for anyone struggling with body image and eating habits. In this episode of 'Recovery Recharged', Ellen Stewart, also known as the Pushy Broad from the Bronx, dives into this pressing issue with Dana Wells, a licensed nutritionist and registered dietitian. Together, they unravel how social media platforms bombard us with misleading information about dieting and weight loss, leading to anxiety and unhealthy eating patterns.

The conversation is packed with personal stories and professional advice, highlighting the importance of self-love, balanced eating, and turning to reliable sources for nutrition guidance.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the barrage of 'perfect' bodies and quick-fix diets online, this episode offers a refreshing perspective and practical tips for nurturing a healthier relationship with food and yourself.
