Hello dear friend,

In this episode, I open up about a season when healthy eating became an obsession. What started as a desire to nourish my body and manage my weight gradually turned into orthorexia nervosa: a restrictive, all-consuming approach to food that affected my mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.

I share how I recognised the problem, broke free from wellness culture, and found a gentler approach to eating healthily. If you’ve ever felt controlled by food, striving for perfection, or moralising what you eat, this conversation is for you.
