Lee Bloom: Finding Light in the Darkness of Eating Disorders

I have to get up Every Day and make a different choice.
Ever felt overwhelmed by the pressures of society's beauty standards? Lee Bloom has been there. In this episode of 'Real Recovery', Lee, the author of 'Table in the Darkness', opens up about her struggle with an eating disorder. She shares how emotions, or rather the lack of a healthy outlet for them, played a significant role in her battle.
It's a raw and honest conversation that touches on the real-life impact of depression, low self-esteem, and the societal obsession with thinness. Lee's story isn't just about the struggle; it's about finding hope and healing through faith. She talks about how her relationship with God became her anchor, helping her navigate the stormy waters of recovery. The episode also dives into the dangers of orthorexia, a lesser-known but equally harmful obsession with health and food.
Lee emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries and embracing self-love as crucial steps in the recovery journey. This episode is a beacon for anyone grappling with eating disorders or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear Lee's inspiring journey and discover how faith and self-acceptance can lead to true healing.
