  • The normalisation of orthorexia and the impact this may be having on individuals struggling with orthorexic tendencies.
  • The recent separation of orthorexia, orthorexia nervosa, and "healthy orthorexia".
  • The role of a diagnosis and how this can be supportive or destructive for someone's recovery.
  • The role of labels, how they can become someone's identity, and how this impacts them living a purposeful life.
  • Craig and Hannah's perspective of living with ADHD and the impact this can have on eating disorder recovery.
  • How to navigate an obsession around "healthy eating" and Craig's advice for navigating this.
