  • Such a needed podcast!

    This podcast really highlights the often missed areas of nuance within the eating disorder field. There are so much social-justice related subjects that Allyson touches upon that are truly SO needed in terms of the broader discussion about eating disorders. Allyson is such a leader in our field, and her voice is such a gift. I cannot recommend her podcast highly enough!
