Matching Frequencies : Discussing Diet Culture with Peyton Farr!
Hello! My friend Peyton Farr (aka Wig), fellow food science student, Swiftie, and ED recovery advocate joins me to discuss all things diet culture in college and its impact on women. Listen as Wig and I speak about our experiences with eating disorders and how being in the food industry presents triggers, as well as how Wig's experiences will shape her future career in food science and nutrition. We discuss food commentary boundaries, our mutual fascination with Brooklyn & Bailey, and much more. Tune in for a much-needed educational and entertaining chat with the brilliant Wig!
This episode means so much to me - I have been wanting to launch into a discussion on food science and eating disorders for a very long time. Thank you to Wig for helping to start this dialogue around how we can thrive in a world that wants to shrink us.
If you or a loved one are experiencing disordered eating or body image issues, please seek professional advice. Talk to a loved one and know that there is help out there, and you can make it to the other side.

My Experience with the Gym: Recovery from EDs
Hi fam! I wanted to take a moment to talk about what the gym has been like for me the past few years, particularly in recovery from disordered eating. EDs are unfortunately too common, but even when recovered, it's sometimes tricky to understand the role of fitness and movement in our lives. In this episode, I share some reminders and tips for people new to or returning to the gym, and some ideas for becoming more confident in your time at the gym.
