Manage episode 396836204 series 3325565
Cole Kazdin, author of What's Eating Us: Women, Food, and the Epidemic of Body Anxiety, joins us to explore, what it would mean to truly be free of disordered eating. Not just the behaviors -- but the constant mental chatter, the critical voice, and the restrictive thoughts. We ask the tough questions about whether full recovery possible, and how for much of her life, Cole wondered if freedom was ever possible, or if disordered eating is more of a chronic condition that ebbs and flows throughout life.
Tune in to hear more, including...
- What led Cole to write the book, why she wrote it at this point in her recovery, and what her goal was in doing it through the investigative journalism lens
- What it feels like to be in partial recovery
- Shocking statistics about eating disorders
- How ED funding and research compares to other health conditions
- Why disordered eating and body shame is rising
- Risk factors for eating disorders that go unnoticed
- The imperative of community in healing / recovery, including Cole's experience and how we can use this in future ED research and treatment
- How Cole thinks about “ full recovery” now
- What we can all be doing to move forward towards more peace with food and our body
