Our universal desire to be loved and accepted can often lead us down paths that at first glance seem harmless - perhaps for a while even positive, but are ultimately not good for us.

For Jemma Cappa, like many young women, love and acceptance was measured by what the mirror reflected back to her. By how people responded to the way her body looked.

But that desire for acceptance became an obsession; one that at 15 years old gave birth to calorie counting, extreme exercise, and a fear of food. It also lead to her being admitted to hospital weighing 38 kilograms and a 3 month stay.

In this episode of the podcast Jemma talks about the slippery slope to anorexia, the impact it has had on her life, and the long road back.

I hope you enjoy our conversation.
