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.
Body Stuff with Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani
As I sat down with Dr. Gaudiani, she wasted no time in emphasizing the personalized and intricate nature of eating disorders. These conditions are shaped by a complex interplay of genetics and an array of factors still shrouded in mystery. Dr. Gaudiani made it clear that the web of complexities surrounding eating disorders extends far beyond our current comprehension, revealing the need for a bespoke approach to treatment.
When Recovery Isn’t Quite Recovery At All
So what if your journey through your eating disorder recovery isn’t going the way you had thought it would go?
You made huge strides with eating- you eat all the macros, eat way more frequently than you had before, and you challenge yourself with foods, but you still feel obsessive and anxious; you just feel you are not quite there yet.
You feel something is off. For sure, it feels a lot better than before; after all, you are eating and feeling more energized than ever! But completely free from the shackles of your eating disorder?

How to Accept Your Body
How do you accept your body when you don’t really like your body?
I get this question SO often, and the reason I haven’t addressed it sooner is because there’s really no magic answer to improve body image.
There’s nothing I can say in this post that will revolutionize your body image – but I’m hoping it can help your brain start to think about it a little differently.

But What's Wrong With Wanting to Lose Weight?
I get asked ALL the time why I don’t endorse intentional weight loss and dieting. Here, I answer this question and address why trying to lose weight AND heal your relationship with food won’t work. We’ll discuss what “healthy” means, what to do instead of dieting, and how intuitive eating plays a role.
