The psychology of your 20s is a weekly podcast from The Project. This week, the hosts talk about eating disorders and how they affect our mental health. We are also launching merch in collaboration with local Melbourne artist Sydney. If you would like to purchase a sweatshirt, a tote bag, maybe both, feel free to go to the link in the podcast description or to the link on our Instagram to get your hands on some really cool merch.
In this episode we break down the psychology behind eating disorders - from anorexia to bulimia and binge eating disorder. Amalie Lee, the Host of the Recovery Talk podcast joins us to discuss her own experience with anorexia and as an eating disorder recovery coach as we break down the triggers and origins of eating disorders, the misconceptions, how they impact our psychological and emotional well-being and the journey to healing and recovery.
