Gemma Oaten on Relationships, Eating Disorders, and Self-Acceptance

I'm thrilled to have Gemma Oaten, former Emmerdale actress, radio presenter, and CEO of Seed Support UK, as my first guest of the new series. In this insightful interview, Gemma discusses the impact of eating disorders on relationships, addressing questions like how her anorexia affected her body image, the evolution of close relationships during her struggle, and pivotal moments that reshaped her perspective on food and control. Gemma also shares her journey towards self-acceptance, the role of SEED in repairing connections, and offers valuable advice to parents and those currently battling eating disorders.Find Gemma: Instagram: @gemma.oatenYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzAusnmnI5oIIhPmoYOV1mQSEED (Eating Disorder Support Service): https://seed.charity/Follow Hurt to Healing on Instagram: @hurttohealingpodProduced by Rutherford ProductionsStay Connected with Hurt to Healing:Instagram: instagram.com/hurttohealingpodYouTube: youtube.com/@hurttohealingpodTikTok: tiktok.com/@hurttohealingpodSubstack: substack.com/@hurttohealingWebsite: hurttohealing.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
