Am I halfway? Am I even getting better? Am I just stuck? On this episode of Paved with Gold, we're talking all about Quasi Recovery - the unofficial 'midway' point of your recovery journey. We talk about what quasi-recovery is, why it's so damn exhausting and offer some advice on how to help progress through it.

It's not about the food, except it very much is about the food! On this episode of Paved with Gold, we dive head first into the role of dietetics and eating disorders, how weight actually works and the impact eating disorders have on our health. This topic has been highly requested so we hope you enjoy this chat as much as we did.

In this episode of Paved with Gold, we welcome Lucy Dahill to discuss her research on the impact parental comments about weight and shape have on children and adolescents and how that can manifest in eating disorders. We also unpack the anaolgy of 'Fertile Soil' which is quickly becoming one of our favourites!

On this episode of Paved with Gold we discuss social media at LENGTH (sorry in advance), the effects it has on body image and eating disorders in general as well as the role recovery accounts play in eating disorder recovery. Strap yourselves in - it's a wild wild west.

*Trigger warning: This episode contains references to personal experiences of self-harm, suicidal ideations, substance abuse and sexual assault.

On this episode of Paved with Gold, we are joined by the ever inspiring Iz (they/them) to discuss their brave journey with anorexia nervosa, trauma,  being unhoused and self harm. Now recovered, Iz talks about how they are using their platform to break down stigmas, inspire thousands and create a community for who live with similar illnesses. Plus their adorable assistance dog, Cobie, makes a cameo or two.

*Please note, since this episode was recorded, Iz has come out as non-binary. The names and pronouns used in this episode reflected how Iz identified at the time. Iz now uses they/them pronouns. This episode was kept live with Iz's permission.

You've heard us say it a thousand times, now we talk about it for a full hour! On this episode of Paved with Gold, we discuss recovery maintenance and why we reject the idea that there is one definition for being "recovered."

**Editing note: apologies there was a point where Ash's mic dropped out and we had to use a backup audio for part of it. It is only for a minute around the 17min mark but apologies that the audio quality drops out for a brief moment!

On this epsiode of Paved with Gold, we have the privilege of chatting to the incredible Dr Asher Larmie (he/they), also known as @theFatDoctor or if you read the Daily Mail - "the UK's most outrageous doctor?"  We talk about the impacts and origins of medical weight stigma, the dangers of weight loss injections like Wegovy and debunks everything that is wrong with the BMI. It may be our longest episode yet, but we could not get enough of Asher's wisdom. This one is a must-listen.

Eating disorders have long been associated with one very stereotypical image - emaciated, young white cis girls - and this image only causes harm to everyone who lives with an eating disorder. On this episode of Paved with Gold, Ash and Callie are joined by Liam (he/him), who navigated his eating disorder and recovery as a cis het male, despite being told "men just don't have eating disorders."
