Hello listeners, and welcome to Breaking Down where we explain emotions, behaviors, and everything else that makes us human.

Today’s episode is
about body image and eating disorders. This is our part two in our two-part series
about eating disorders and body image. In today’s episode we are sitting down
with an expert in eating disorders and body acceptance to discuss resources for
eating disorder treatment as well as provide us skills for working toward self-acceptance.
If you haven’t listened to part one, I would highly encourage it as we will
cover similar themes covered in that episode. Knowing this episode will be heavier in nature, I want to give a trigger warning regarding topics involving eating disorders, disordered eating, body image, and body dysmorphia. Feel free to skip this episode if this content is uncomfortable to listen to.
