Eating Disorders and Body Image – How to help turn the tide on a worldwide issue
This candid podcast features guests Catherine Brown and Christina Tinker who struggled with eating disorders earlier in their lives. While the details around their stories differ, both women agree that to begin to turn the tide of unhealthy body image issues, the dialogue around dieting needs to change. Revealing that eating disorders have very little to do with food, they both stress the need for engagement and connection when interfacing with someone who possesses an eating disorder. Catherine and Christina provide helpful suggestions for anyone who battles with their own negative body image or knows someone who does.
Catherine and Christina co-edited their book, Hope for Recovery: Stories of Healing From Eating Disorders. To find out more about them or how to order their book, please visit: https://www.hoperecoverybook.com/
