Eating Disorder Recovery and This Food T...

HARRIET FREW
About this episode

Today I'm talking to Jemma Richards, voice-over artist and writer. Jemma is also the host of This Food Thing Podcast and lives in London.

Jemma talks openly about her torturous relationship with food and her body, starting from a young age, and how this developed into eating disorders. She shares the painful reality of living with an eating disorder; exploring the secrecy, shame and life engulfment.    Jemma has recovered from eating disorders. In this conversation, she talks about her long and arduous journey through different therapies and other support, to finding the peaceful food place that she occupies today. Jemma has recently launched This Food Thing Podcast -  a series of conversations with special guests discussing their own experiences with food, whether friend or foe and how it affects their behaviour. Do check it out. I hope that you enjoy this episode.
