This episode is in memory of my dad, Chris Goeckel. He was taken from us unexpectedly at 64 years old, right before my wedding.
I don't know where I would be in this grief journey without the tools I have acquired in my eating disorder recovery, so in this episode I discuss what's helped me and what I've learned about grief these past few months.
I also give a tribute to my dad. My wonderful and larger than life dad who loved his family with every fiber of his being. While he will be deeply missed, we will always carry him with us and his parenting, legacy, and love lives on through his family.
We love you forever dad, and forever never ends.

In Entry 18, Amy sits down with Cindy Spratt, a holistic nutritionist who is real food based, specializing in eating psychology, eating disorders, body image, and culinary & functional nutrition. Cindy's story is fascinating and inspiring: now a mom to a 15 year old son living her purpose to serve others who have struggled with disordered eating and body image, Cindy talks about her own past with growing up with an obsession of being thin that quickly turned into a full-fledged eating disorder. After being diagnosed with cancer in her early 30s, she turned a completely new leaf and started her journey of non-stop learning, healing, and teaching others what she has learned. She's also celebrating 13+ years being cancer free, and is an absolute gem of a human to listen to and learn from.

From touring and screening the BLACKBIRD film (a short video about life in eating disorder treatment centers) throughout colleges in the United States, to providing a platform for those to discuss eating disorders and mental health conversation within underrepresented communities, their mission is to connect audiences of different communities to rid themselves of shame surrounding mental health. Lucy also discusses her personal experience with overcoming anorexia while attending Northwestern University and shares her own recovery tips.

Welcome Caroline Thomason, the first registered dietitian to be featured on The Eating Disorder Diaries. Amy and Caroline discuss the association between trauma and eating disorders/disorded eating and draw parallels to Amy's story and Caroline's day-to-day that she sees with her clients. We pick Caroline's brain on all the things - should I be fasting? Can that even help? Why do I get so bloated sometimes and what should I do about that? How can I get out of the cycle of disordered eating? Tune in to hear more!
