S1 E23 - Food and Body Stories

This episode explores my story as far as the food and body image struggles I developed in my early teens and that am still journeying to understand. Since I'll be hosting my first guest (Dr. Ashley White, creator of Responsive Eating) in episode 24, I wanted to explore this topic that feels a little vulnerable to me, but is also something that I believe clients and listeners can benefit from hearing.

Please be advised if you have struggled with eating disorders that this may trigger some recognition for you. I end the podcast with self-compassion and self-acceptance as the first steps to healing our food and body stories. I encourage you to seek advice from a trained professional if you are experiencing stress in this area.
