Hey Rebel. Today, we're looking at the link between substance use and eating disorders. I’m joined by Amanda White, a licensed therapist, author, and the owner of Therapy for Women, a group practice specializing in mental health, eating disorders, and addiction. Amanda is in recovery from both an eating disorder and substance use, and she openly shares her journey to help others feel less alone.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Amanda’s personal journey with food struggles, disordered eating, and addiction
• The connection between eating disorders and substance use, and their differences in the path to recovery
• Why Amanda identifies as in recovery rather than recovered 
• How healing leads to deeper connections, presence, and a richer life

Amanda also shares how her recovery has shaped the way she raises her daughter in a home that supports a positive relationship with food—something many of us didn’t grow up with. Listen in and I know you'll enjoy this impactful, nuanced conversation!
