Manage episode 499757505 series 3669719
In this powerful episode, Kait sits down with Amy Goeckel — host of the Eating Disorders Podcast — for an unfiltered conversation about Amy’s lived experience with an eating disorder and her ongoing recovery journey. Amy opens up about the early warning signs she missed, the tight grip the disorder had on her life, and how her healing process has evolved over time.
Together, Kait and Amy discuss:
- The subtle but important early signs of an eating disorder
- How an ED can shape identity, relationships, and daily life
- The realities of mental health recovery — both victories and setbacks
- Why recovery is an ongoing choice rather than a single milestone
This conversation offers a raw, compassionate look into someone else’s experience with eating disorder recovery, providing both validation and hope for anyone walking a similar path.

EPISODE GUEST: Amy is the host of The Eating Disorder Diaries, a podcast that chronicles her 15+ year battle with bulimia, her experience with eating disorder recovery, and features interviews from those who have been a part of her personal journey, have had their own experience with an eating disorder, or are industry experts ranging from doctors, therapists, to nutritionists. By hearing the stories of those in recovery and learning what's allowed them to heal, Amy's goal is to help others kick start or further continue their own healing process and to lead a fulfilling life knowing we are all not alone and full recovery is possible.
