The biggest learning curve for me is: you know food is something that fuels your body to do all the incredible things you wanna do, but depriving yourself, you know, of basic sustenance, you're setting yourself up, for it's hard to say where it could go.
Katie’s story is a poignant reminder of the hidden battles many face. In this episode of 'Secret Life', hosted by Brianne Davis, Katie opens up about her struggle with eating disorders that began during her time as a college athlete. The pressure to maintain a certain weight and body image led her down a dark path of obsessive calorie counting and excessive exercise.
Katie's candid conversation sheds light on the often overlooked impact of societal and social media pressures on body image, particularly for women. Her journey from consuming as little as 500 calories a day to finding a healthier relationship with food is both heartbreaking and inspiring. With the unwavering support of her family, Katie was able to confront her disorder and begin the long road to recovery.
This episode is not just about the struggle; it's about the resilience and the importance of self-love and acceptance. Katie’s experience underscores the need for awareness and understanding of eating disorders, offering hope to those who might be facing similar challenges. Tune in to hear Katie’s powerful story and gain insights into the importance of nourishing your body and mind.
