Disordered Eating Podcast
Each week we explore the deeper meaning of our relationship with food and our body. I interview experts in the field of eating disorders and psychoanalysis to bring you the answers about why you do the things you do and bring you one step closer to a healthier relationship with food and yourself.
Men Also Have Eating Disorders with Aaron Flores, RDN
We seem to think that disordered eating is a girl thing, perhaps because that’s what the “numbers” tell us. But the numbers only reflect people who get help and people who know they have a problem. For various reasons, that doesn't quite frequently happen in men. Aaron and I talk about what may be similar or different in ED’s in men. And we talk about shame.
Sprinkled into this episode is Aaron’s Star Wars love and his knack for taking lessons from the series. You can’t see but his office is full of Star Wars paraphernalia.
Stay tuned until the end, we chat a bit about clinicians who have their own ED and disordered eating struggles. I won’t say more about that here, you’ll have to listen! 🙊
