Richie Cartwright

This week we're joined by none other than @richiecartwright_. An entrepreneur and founder, Richie's mission is to end the stigma around men’s binge eating 💪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Having never considered himself to be someone with an eating disorder, in his late teens Richie found himself turning to Google, and online communities. However, he soon found himself asking 'where are all the men'? This is something which affects not just gals, but guys too.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Richie and his co-founder started Fella to help men tackle binge eating. Fella is a community-driven digital health platform: software to guide you through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), supported by other men going through the same thing.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ He says 'millions of men struggle with binge eating, but it's all in silence — their stories are nowhere to be found. That’s why I’m determined to share mine'.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We had a fascinating chat with Richie and hope that we are able to help spread awareness of all the amazing work he and his team are doing with Fella. This episode dives into a serious topic but we hope in a sensitive way that is accessible for all. Trigger warning: this episode discusses a sensitive topic which some people may find difficult to listen to.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #podcast #podcastguest #fella #mensmentalhealth #bingeeating #mentalhealth #inspiration #entrepreneur #founder #vulnerability #eatingdisorder
