In this episode, Karin welcomes JD Ouellette, MS, educator turned eating disorder professional, to the show for, “Radical Responsibility.”

Join Karin and JD for a conversation on the importance of early family intervention, the role of psychoeducation for supports, how Family-Based Treatment (FBT) supports and changes the family system, the ways in which the eating disorder “voice” is the loudest voice, challenging parental fears of perpetuating harm for their child, setting boundaries with children, radical responsibility that comes with lived experience, and much more!

JD Ouellette, MS is an educator turned family mentor who came into this work after helping her youngest child fully recover from an eating disorder using FBT, which ignited JD’s passion for access to evidence-based care. She became active in online family support communities, writing, attending and speaking at conferences. JD’s fervor for sharing with other parents through educating and mentoring eventually led her to open her own peer coaching practice.
