    • Mental Health

Joy and Adam, with returning guest host Amee Severson, share stories of their religious traditions and how those experiences affected their eating disorder recovery. Processing and overcoming religious guilt as well as adapting to one's body after realizing the harms of purity cultures are discussed. Our hope is for those religious and non-religious among the survivor community to better understand each other, and, though we may have similar histories, the outcomes of those stories may be starkly different.
