First episode of a THREE PART DIALOGUE on our relationship with food as athletes. We are discussing food and eating habits both during your sport and when your sport ends. On this episode, Brooke shares her battle with an eating disorder and disordered eating during college running and after graduation. Nearly 10% of the American population has an eating disorder in their lifetime. Unfortunately a large percentage of those battling eating disorders are athletes, specifically female athletes. Both Brooke and Don felt this taboo topic needed to be discussed on today's episode, so Brooke is opening up and sharing her struggles with both disordered eating and an eating disorder, in a never before public discussion format with you.

TRIGGER WARNING: For those with an eating disorder please proceed with caution in listening to this episode, as many of the concepts brought up may be hard to listen to.

Please seek help if you or someone you know may be struggling with negative body image, an eating disorder, or disordered eating. Remember that growth comes from honest conversations held in a manner of love for the person who is struggling. Recovery can take years, so be kind to your mind, body, and spirit.
