   The Story I Was Afraid to Tell: My Eating Disorder, Recovery & Why I Started Nourished

   For a long time, this was a story I wasn’t ready to tell. In this solo episode, I’m sharing my journey with anorexia and orthorexia, what recovery has really looked like, and the reason I created Nourished. For years, I carried a tremendous amount of shame around my eating disorder. It took time and a lot of healing to realize that the more we talk about these experiences, the less power they have over us. I’m opening up about my hospitalization, the perfectionism and need for control that fueled my illness, and why recovery was about so much more than simply eating again. It was about learning to trust my body, quiet my inner critic, and build a life rooted in intention instead of punishment. In this episode ▫️Why I named this podcast Nourished ▫️How I was diagnosed with anorexia and orthorexia ▫️The moment I realized my eating disorder had become life-threatening ▫️What I wish someone had told me much sooner ▫️How I navigate difficult days in recovery ▫️What nourishment means to me today ▫️How my own healing has shaped the conversations you’ll hear on this podcast ▫️Why I’m committed to creating a space where curiosity replaces shame ▫️My hope is that this conversation helps you feel a little less alone. If you or someone you love is struggling with an eating disorder, please know that help is available. Reach out to a qualified mental health professional or your local eating disorder support organization. You don’t have to face it alone✨🤍 My hope is that this conversation helps you feel a little less alone. Whether you’re navigating your own healing journey, supporting someone you love, or simply looking to better understand the connection between mental health and physical wellness, I hope you’ll walk away knowing that healing is possible—and that none of us have to do it alone. Thank you for being part of this community. Your support means more than you know, and I’m so grateful you’re here.

   Eating Disorders Aren’t What You Think: Science, Misconceptions and What Actually Helps

   In this radically honest conversation Natalie sits down with clinical psychologist and leading researcher Dr. Pamela Keel to unpack the science, psychology, and misconceptions behind eating disorders. From her own experience living with Type-1 diabetes to decades of groundbreaking research, Dr. Keel brings both personal insight and clinical expertise to a conversation that challenges everything we think we know about these conditions. Together, they explore why eating disorders aren’t caused by just one thing, the role of genetics and environment, how social media and modern wellness trends are shaping behaviors, and why telling someone to “just eat” misses the mark entirely. They also dive into prevention, early warning signs, the rise of GLP-1 medications, and how to actually seek help in a system that often feels inaccessible. This is an open conversation about what it really takes to support healing in a world full of social media misinformation.

   Embodiment Over Hustle: Healing, Business, and Becoming Whole | Port de Bras' Clarissa Egaña

   She built a luxury athleisure brand as a movement—and it started with a life-altering diagnosis, and a decision to finally breathe again. Clarissa Egaña, the visionary founder of Port de Bras (PDB)—a wellness-centered athleisure brand rooted in intention, sustainability, and community impact. Born in Florida to Venezuelan parents and raised in Caracas, Clarissa shares how her Latin American upbringing shaped her artistic sensibilities and social conscience—and how a personal health reset ultimately became the catalyst for building a company with purpose. From postpartum anxiety and a Hashimoto’s diagnosis to discovering the power of yoga as a life-saving practice, Clarissa opens up about the realities behind entrepreneurship: the pressure of external validation, navigating pivots, the chaos behind wholesale, and the courage it takes to return to the roots of why she started. She also shares how PDB collaborates with NGOs, leads sustainability initiatives, and supports her team in Venezuela—proving that a brand can be beautiful and built for positive change.

   My Story of Release, Reset, and Restoration

   Welcome to the very first episode of Nourished with Natalie. In this deeply honest and reflective episode, I share a story I carried quietly for years—my experience with an eating disorder, hospitalization, and the long, nonlinear road to recovery. I open up about unresolved trauma, ambition-fueled burnout, my years living in New York City, and the patterns that kept me disconnected from myself… until my body and my life demanded a reset. This episode walks through my own process of release, reset, and restoration: leaving New York, moving to Miami without a safety net, learning how to sit in discomfort, rediscovering creativity through food and yoga, stepping away from corporate life, building my own business, and ultimately creating space to receive the life I live now. This conversation sets the foundation for Nourished with Natalie—a podcast rooted in mindful living, emotional wellness, and intentional growth. I share why this podcast exists, how curiosity will guide every episode, and why I believe real healing happens when we slow down, get honest, and reconnect with ourselves. This episode is for anyone who: – has achieved a lot but still feels disconnected – has lived in survival mode for too long – has struggled with food, body image, burnout, or identity – feels the pull toward a different, more intentional way of living Nourished with Natalie isn’t about perfection or quick fixes. It’s about creating space—for truth, for healing, and for a life that actually feels good to live. Consider this your invitation to exhale.
