RecoverED Katie Reid

Katie Reid gives a brief, and to an extent improvised intro into the RecoverED series. 

Zoe and Katie get together to chat about Zoe's journey. From being told not to eat potatoes because they make you sad to training for the GB Olympics team... 

Join Katie as she speaks to the wonderful Mirat about his journey with anorexia. From being an inpatient to getting married during lockdown, Mirat dives into how it feels to be a male experiencing an eating disorder and what helped him recover. 

This week, Carolina and Katie discuss all things from their first, and only, meeting two years ago to their struggles with fertility and the genetics behind eating disorders. 

Adam Gill is a 34 year old Beat Ambassador who has been living with Bulimia and Binge Eating Disorder since the age of 13 – although he's learned in recent years that this doesn’t define who he is. Having a very eclectic taste in music, film and television Adam has spent a number of years as a drummer and a singer in bands playing open mic nights and festivals. Alongside an incredible musical ability is a passion for football as Adam is part of a community footie group known as "Shift the Timber". Join Katie and Adam as they discuss eating disorders, the sterotypes and recovery journey... and keep an eye out for Adams new book which is all about living with eating disorders aiming to show other men that it's ok to ask for help when their mental health is suffering.

Adrienne and Katie discuss access to treatment and how you recover when you don't have the means to get the help you need.
