**Content warning: we mention the names of eating disorders but do not talk about the details of the disorders**

    Conversations matter.

     

    In the last 50 years, the conversations around eating disorders have drastically changed 

    • From the conversations in medical education 
    • To the inclusion of conversations as a part of diagnostics and treatment
    • And our awareness around the conversations we have about our own bodies

    In this episode, I invited my godmother Eileen, who is a dietician working in the field of eating disorders for 40ish years, to talk about the truths and assumptions around eating disorders and more.
