This is part one of a two part series. In this episode, we talk to Chiara, a 29 year old engineer about the circumstances around her parents' divorce, life transitions, and how a loss of her sense of control lead to the development of an eating disorder. As always, please be aware that we are therapists, but this is not a therapy session, and Chiara is not a client.

This episode involves discussion about divorce, anxiety and eating disorders. We have censored content from this episode which may trigger our listeners. We do our best to hold these topics with intention and sincerity, and we hope you’ll join us whenever you feel ready and able.

If you or someone you know is struggling with an eating disorder, please reach out to a mental health professional, a trusted person or visit one of the following resources:
