In this episode, I speak to Olivia Hernandez a singer, artist and life coach who guides others to enjoy the ride of weirdness and healing that comes from Speaking Your TRUTH, by taking Bold action, embracing the beautiful journey of healing and embodying the Badass within.

I'm so excited to share this episode with you because some of the topics we speak about are different from traditional approaches to eating disorder recovery that you have probably come across before. While there might not be direct evidence for the effectiveness of the approaches we discuss, I believe that there is no one-size(therapy)-fits-all in recovery and these approaches/modalities can support recovery for some people.

We discuss:

Getting excited to do the work on yourself
Creating love rituals
How to connect to your divine self
What are the different chakras
Using affirmations and crystals to align energy
Importance of practicing mirror work
Infusing your food, body and life with positive energy
Using spiritualizing in healing your relationship with food
Steps to create a 2.0 version of self
What to do when the people around you don’t support your journey

Sophia Purcell hassuffered with anorexia nervosa since her late teens, but wasn’t officially diagnosed until the summer of 2017, more than a decade into the eating disorder. She also has a mild form of Cerebral Palsy, a congenital condition that affects movement, coordination, balance and muscle strength, flexibility and tone.

At present, there’s not much research into the relationship between eating disorders and disabilities. As someone with first-hand experience of both, she wants to do whatever she can to raise awareness, encourage others to seek support, and hopefully make treatment more inclusive and accessible.

We discuss-

How having Cerebal Palsy affected her self-esteem growing up and contributed to the development of an eating disorder
Sophia's experience in an inpatient unit and how it effected her cerebral palsy
Things she wished she had known before going into treatment for her eating disorder
Opinions on how individuals with a co-existing physical condition or emotional needs can advocate for themselves when undergoing treatment
How treatment models could become more inclusive for people with additional needs and physical conditions

Trigger warning: This episode describes eating disorder thoughts and behaviours, including mention of specific foods. I think these are fairly stereotypical of someone suffering with anorexia and I would like to keep the episode as unedited and real as possible, so I decided to keep these descriptions in the episode.

In this episode I speak to Caroline Drummond-Smith, who after suffering from anorexia for 30 years made a full recovery and is now a health coach, who helps others to have a healthier relationship with food. I hope you find this episode relatable and inspirational. We speak about

Caroline's childhood and risks factors for anorexia
how she used restriction to feel in control through the ups and downs of life
marriage, pregnancy and raising 3 children with anorexia in the picture
living in denial, being un-engaged with treatment and finally the decision to recover
our thoughts on how long it takes to recover from an eating disorder
tips for developing a more positive body image
a practical exercise to help you reach the all-important decision to recover

Super short solo episode. Please listen to this episode in the spirit in which it was intended (a helpful resource). There are so many more important conversations that could be had around this topic and I don't pretend to know a lot about Nikki Grahame.

Condolences to her family and friends at this difficult time.

Eat less + move more is the simple formula for weight loss that we've (almost) all bought into at some point. We try our best, but then we reach a plateau. In this episode, I'm joined by specialist sports nutritionist Faye Townsend to discuss

why might someone initially lose weight on a diet/exercise plan but then weight loss plateaus?
what can someone do if they feel it's impossible for them to realistically eat any less or move anymore?
the problem with online calorie calculators and extreme fitness challenges
the importance of rest and recovery
what should someone do if they start to feel guilty about not exercising?

We've pretty much all been on a diet, lost the weight, and then regained it back (plus more)! But why don't these diets help us to lose weight for good? I'm joined by nutritionist and Health at Every Size advocate Jeanette Thompson-Wessen. In this episode we discuss

what is the evidence that diets don't work for weight loss long-term?
why might people regain the weight lost through a diet?
what is Health at Every Size, fat-phobia and weight stigma?
how to speak to a health professional who suggests you lose weight as/before treatment

Notes: Morbidity = rate of death (not risk of death as was mentioned at one point during this episode)

Part 2 with Emma Green. We round up Emma's story (carrying on from part 1/Ep 8) and discuss if it's healthy to be vegan (i.e., not eating meat, fish, eggs, dairy, honey) during eating disorder recovery. Emma took the decision to cut out animal products (including in make-up, clothes etc) during her recovery and is still vegan today, where-as I was vegan for a while, but have gone back to eating some animal products!

This episode has some great questions to ask yourself surrounding your reasons for cutting out animal products and how to eat in a way that supports your mental and physical health.

This episode is for information only. It is NOT intended for diagnosis of an eating disorder. Please be aware that often there is a grey area between what is a 'healthy' behaviour and what is 'unhealthy' because of the amount of mental time and energy the behaviour takes. Also, there are other indictors of disordered eating not covered in this episode.
