13% of women over 50 struggle with the symptoms of an eating disorder. * Whether it is a recurrence or brought on by life transitions, hormones or stress, the numbers are rising.

For our last episode of 2025, we are joined by Mallary Tenore Tarpley.

Mallary is an assistant professor of journalism at the University of Texas and author of the new book, Slip: Life in the Middle of Eating Disorder Recovery. Mallary shares her personal experience along with clinicians, researchers, and others with lived experience.  We discuss the space between sickness and health and how therapists should be focusing on treating the personality traits in addition to the symptoms.
