Eating disorders aren't about control—they're about safety.

In our latest conversation with Jennifer Stanger, therapeutic consultant and expert in eating disorder treatment and intervention, we break down common misconceptions and explore why so many treatment models fall short.

Jennifer shares how eating disorder care often lags behind other behavioral health fields—focusing on surface symptoms while ignoring deeper co-occurring issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, and family dynamics.

We also explore the neurological overlap with substance use disorders, and why weight restoration—both physically and emotionally—is more complex than most people realize.

Tune in as we uncover what actually supports lasting recovery. This is the conversation the field has been needing.

Mental health challenges are complex, and dismissive language can discourage people from reaching out for the help that they need.

Shifting the conversation to acknowledge the struggle and offer support can be a lifeline. Remember, small changes in how we speak can lead to big changes in how people heal.
