About this episode

For much of her teenage life and early adulthood, Sophia Hatzis was plagued by anorexia nervosa, which led to anxiety and depression. Years on, she is thriving as a rugby player and advice blogger for young girls.

On this episode of The Wellness Daily Show, Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Ms Hatzis about her journey through ill-health, what it has taught her about societal norms, what got her through and how writing, hitting the gym and playing rugby have been immeasurably cathartic for her.
