This episode sees Debbie chatting to eating disorder therapist Caroline Drummond Smith, who herself recovered from anorexia – after a battle lasting many many decades.

Caroline experienced an eating disorder all the way through her adult life – despite being a happy wife, mother and social butterfly – but finally sought true recovery for herself after a series of incidents made her recognise she was sick and tired of being sick and tired.

Today she helps many people recover, and among those, a large proportion are over the age of 45.

Debbie and Caroline discuss the issues of older sufferers of eating disorders often being ignored or invisible, and what helps in the battle to live a truly free and healthy life after so many years of a severe and enduring mental illness.

Caroline’s business, for those interested, is www.zesthealthcoaching.co.uk
