About this episode

Today I’m talking with Julia Trehane (a returning guest to the podcast) who is an anorexia, orthorexia and compulsive exercise recovery coach. Julia has overcome 40 years gripped by eating disorders and is now passionate about instilling hope for change in others. Julia Trehane is a podcast host, eating disorder coach, food freedom advocate and anti-diet culture campaigner. 

Julia uses her wealth of scientific understanding, applied with a huge amount of love to help people all around the world to break free from eating disorders and love themselves once more.

Having survived 40 years of anorexia, orthorexia and exercise addiction, Julia has a deep understanding of how it feels to be gripped by food prison, how the mind processes information in an eating disorder and how to re-wire our thoughts to break free and return to freedom for ever. 

If you’re feeling lost, stuck and hopeless, living in the depths of an eating disorder, this is definitely an episode for you. Julia shares about her long and arduous battle with eating disorders, talking candidly about the reality of recovery. She explains the challenges of eating more and the body changes accompanying this. She talks about how she navigated this challenging process, not only managing food and body image but the tumultuous journey of engaging with emotions, finding identity and the impact on her closest relationships. You will be encouraged, supported and inspired by what is possible. I hope that you enjoy the episode.
