Why Eating Disorder Recovery Fails | Women Over 50

Eating disorder recovery may not be your first concern. But you’d be surprised at the percent of midlife women triggered into eating disruption again or for the first time. 

In this episode we discuss so much more than eating disorder recovery and truly define what is eating disorder, what is disordered vs emotional eating. For every woman nurturing herself or others, this episode has value.
