Eating Disorders Awareness Week 2025

Published on: 1st March, 2025

Disclaimer – In this episode, I discuss disordered eating, body image, and exercise issues.

In this special MyoMinds Podcast episode for Eating Disorders Awareness Week (EDAW), I explore this year’s theme: "Anyone can be affected by an eating disorder." During the podcast, I reflect on my own story and how it led to the development of MyoMinds and my current research.

I also discuss my research findings on men’s access to care for eating, exercise, and body image psychopathology, highlighting potential areas where eating disorder stereotypes have influenced healthcare.

I hope you enjoy!
