    Let's Talk About God (PART 1): relying on Jesus in times of darkness

    Episode Four is a little different… the first in video format!!! (and perhaps not the last). In this episode my friend Tiggy and I speak openly about our faith: how Jesus met us at our lowest and transformed the darkness into joy. Trusting Him transformed our lives, and we couldn't stay quiet about the love that He has for us all. We hope you enjoy this very special episode. This is a public episode.

    Listen to my friend Lina and I, both of us volunteers at a homeless shelter in London, draw from this experience to discuss what is currently a national crisis in the UK. We delve into the causes and traumas of rough sleeping, the misconceptions of the public, and the support that each one of us can offer to make a difference. Thanks for reading Ilaria Writes!

    The Dangerous Pursuit of Thinness

    In Episode Two, you can listen to my friend Julia and I talk between the lines of my piece On Eating Disorders – The Ogres of Our Mind. As young adults who wrestled with restrictive disorders but recovered, we draw from our experience to discuss the dangers of obsessively pursuing thinness, and the importance of choosing recovery. Because with recovery, comes life. Please know that you are not alone.
