Eating Disorder Awareness Week 2020: Interview on KCBX Radio
In honor of National Eating Disorder Awareness week, I was interviewed on “A Conversation with the Reluctant Therapist” on KCBX Radio.
After the show, I reflected on what I feel I most have to contribute to my profession. I decided that my competence as a clinician does not lie in the quality of my meal plans or nutrition knowledge but in being a living example of returning from the black abyss of self-destruction.
The best I can give is an example of not getting hooked, one day at a time, into the lie that I am not good enough. I can be an example of unapologetic self-love. A love that isn’t contingent on the size of my body or my appearance or my health, but a deeper essence of being.
You can listen to the show entitled ‘Making Peace with our Bodies’ below.
If you or someone you know is struggling with an eating disorder, know that you don’t have to fight the battle alone. Contact me.
