On today’s show, Marina Di Loreto shares the ups, downs, challenges and triumphs of recovering from an eating disorder. Marina’s spirit is so vibrant and this episode really felt like a conversation between old friends. I can relate to Marina’s experience SO much (especially the binge gum chewing). Even if you’ve never struggled with disordered eating, Marina’s positive energy and drive to find body peace and positivity will inspire you.

 

We Talk About (a lot):

x Body image as a dancer

x How the mirror can distort your body image & the benefits of living without one in recovery

x Marina’s eating disorder story

x When she knew she needed to ask for help & who she went to

x Why recovery is not a linear journey

x The steps Marina took to recover from her eating disorder

x The surprising habit Marina quit and why it was important

x Is there ever a benefit to calorie counting?

x Wellness practices that help with recovery setbacks

x What it’s like to be stuck in pseudo recovery

x What it’s like to get stuck in the diet industry trap

x Why diets numb your intuition
