In the second part of this incredible episode with Master’s level clinician and eating disorder specialist, we dive even deeper into how disordered eating shows up in ways we never expected – especially during the hormonal chaos of midlife.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Why "clean eating" (clinically called orthorexia) is becoming increasingly problematic
- The deeper psychological roots beneath our food and body struggles
- How to model healthy eating behaviors for your children without passing on your own issues
- That freedom from these patterns is absolutely possible, no matter how long you've been stuck
We live in a culture that normalizes disordered eating. Luckily Kyla is here to show us what true food freedom actually looks like.
