In today’s episode, I’m joined by Ro Mitchell for a really honest and grounding conversation about the link between ADHD, anxiety and disordered eating and the role control often plays when your mind feels chaotic or overwhelming.

We talk about learning to soften the inner critic, rebuilding trust with your body, and why recovery isn’t about giving up control entirely, but about finding safer, more compassionate ways to feel secure. Ro also shares practical tools around body checking, setbacks, and how to respond kindly to yourself when things wobble. This one is gentle, validating, and full of small but powerful takeaways.
