In this week's podcast, Ed LaFlamme joined the show to discuss what it is like to care for and support a spouse as they go through eating disorder treatment and recovery. Many of us think of teenagers when we think of eating disorders, but they happen in adults too! And when that happens, the support team and interventions can look totally different. Ed and Oriana have a great story and now, more than a decade into real recovery, they are both thriving.

In this episode of Life with ED, the podcast, Julia is joined by Fatema Jivanjee-Shakir, a counselor at the Renfrew Center.
