*TW: Eating disorders and mentions of sh*
Hi friends! Welcome back, and thanks for joining us for a very special episode! Today our very first guest, Audrey Coleman, joins WTF Is Going On to discuss a very difficult but very real and vulnerable topic: eating disorders and eating disorder recovery. Audrey and Brooke both struggle with an Eating disorder, Anorexia nervosa, and they’re here to open up and share their stories about working on their recovery from their eating disorders to help anyone who might be struggling, or know someone who is struggling with an eating disorder. Ultimately we hope this episode can provide hope and support and let you know that you are not alone, and Audrey also gives some advice from experiences and journey to recovery that might help you too. We love you, and we are here for you. We can't help each other or make progress as a society in acknowledging and treating mental illness and disorders if we don't openly discuss them. Below we’ve provided resources for help if you or a loved one are struggling with an eating disorder.
***A note from Audrey: "It gets better, I promise. Every bite is a success! I'm proud of you."
