Hope and Healing from Eating Disorders

Olivia is joined by registered dietician and eating disorder recovery specialist Nina Gasow of Annunciation Wellness to talk about eating disorders and healing from them. Nina is a wealth of knowledge about eating disorders and any type of disordered eating, as well as an advocate for recovery for those who have experienced or are experiencing unhealthy eating patterns. In this episode we discuss what health actually is, what disordered eating is, who it effects, what to look for as warning signs that someone you love and care about may be suffering from an eating disorder, and how to approach a conversation with someone you are worried about. We talk about what healing and treatment looks like, as well as statistics that prove how prevalent this issue is in our society.  At Heart Home Faith all our topics are addressed through the lens of Catholicism and our faith belief- as is evident in our conversation, but please know that this episode is for anyone, Catholic, Christian, other faiths, or non religious. Our great hope is that this episode offers encouragement to those struggling with any form of eating disorder in their lives.
