The Recovery Warrior Shows

"Eating disorders are the only health issue where there's a race to the bottom."

If you've ever felt like you are not sick enough or thin enough to receive eating disorder care, this episode is for you.

Host Andrea Wells and guest Nia Patterson address a burning recovery question from a community member about feeling unworthy of support due to the size of their body. Nia shares insights on why you deserve eating disorder care regardless of your body size, and ways you can self advocate when you feel like you're not "sick enough".

What is The Recovery Warrior Shows?

Real talk. Real insights. Real stories of recovery helping people stop fighting food and their body since 2012.

Welcome to Recovery Warriors podcast channel. Where many voices come together to share the one great journey to full eating disorder recovery.

With a unique lineup of shows, your food, body, and self-esteem struggles are covered from every angle. Balancing science and soul, we tell stories and share evidence-based research behind what it takes to recover from restriction, anorexia, bulimia, over-exercising, binge eating, chronic dieting and disordered eating. Not only that, we also cover the underlying trauma, limiting beliefs, and painful emotions that keep you trapped in cycles of feeling powerless and stuck.

It’s exhausting constantly thinking about food and worrying about your weight. You, dear warrior, don’t have to live like this. Together, let’s march forward into a future where you’re living, breathing proof that recovery is possible.
