From the Vault: Is This An Eating Disorder or Disordered Eating?

from Understanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image Healing

This week, we are continuing with our summer throwback series. Originally aired as Episode 174, this vault episode explores a question many people ask: What's the difference between disordered eating and an eating disorder? The line isn't always obvious, especially in a culture where restrictive habits, food rules, and body dissatisfaction are often normalized. In this episode, I break down the key differences, the warning signs to watch for, and when seemingly "healthy" behaviors may be crossing into something more serious. Whether you're questioning your own relationship with food or trying to better understand a loved one's experience, this conversation offers practical guidance and reassurance. More than focusing on labels, we explore why the impact these behaviors have on your daily life is what truly matters. Resources Be sure to sign up for my weekly newsletter!
