Ep 57: Orthorexia in Men: When ‘Healthy Eating’ Becomes an Eating Disorder w/Jason Wood
Sep 22, 20261 hourS2
What happens when “healthy eating” becomes so rigid that food stops being joyful—and starts controlling your life? In this episode, we’re joined by Jason Wood, Executive Director of ANAD, for an honest conversation about orthorexia, men’s body image, eating disorders, vulnerability, and recovery. Jason shares his personal experience with orthorexia and what it was like to recognize that his relationship with food had become increasingly rigid and consuming. We talk about how diet culture can shape men’s relationships with food and their bodies, why eating disorders in men can be difficult to recognize, and how the pursuit of “health” can sometimes become another way an eating disorder hides in plain sight. We also dig into something that can be especially complicated for men: vulnerability. Jason talks about the pressure many men experience to keep pain to themselves, the power of telling our stories, and how peer support and community can create safer spaces for people to seek help Things We Yap About: What orthorexia can look like—and why it can be difficult to recognize How diet culture influences men’s body image and relationships with food Why eating disorders in men are often overlooked or misunderstood The connection between “healthy eating,” rigidity, and disordered behaviors Masculinity and the pressure to keep emotional pain to yourself The role of vulnerability and storytelling in recovery The importance of peer support and community care Creating safer spaces for men to talk about eating disorders Eating disorders don't always look like restriction, weight loss, or a desire to be smaller. Sometimes they can hide behind the pursuit of health, fitness, discipline, or “clean” eating. And sometimes, finding the language to talk about what's happening is the first step toward getting support.

Two Men Share Their Eating Disorder Recovery Stories w/ Elijah Smith & Derek Savick-Hesser
Sep 15, 202657 minS2
What does an eating disorder look like when you don't see yourself represented in the stories you're told about eating disorders? Today, we are joined by Elijah Smith and Derek Savick-Hesser for an honest conversation about eating disorders, body image, mental health, masculinity, queerness, and recovery. Elijah and Derek share their personal experiences with disordered eating and eating disorder recovery, including the complicated relationship between gastrointestinal issues, food fears, ARFID, and body image. They also discuss what it was like to seek help as men, the importance of receiving a diagnosis that makes sense of your experience, and how community and representation can change the recovery process. From theater and the arts to queer community and supportive relationships, we explore the many forms that healing can take—and why recovery doesn't have to mean navigating these experiences alone. Things We Yap About: Men's experiences with eating disorders and body image How GI issues can complicate relationships with food and eating ARFID, food fears, and the intersection of physical and mental health The impact of masculinity and societal expectations on eating disorders Queerness, body image, and identity What it can be like to seek eating disorder treatment as a man The role of community, representation, and being seen How theater and the arts can support healing and self-acceptance The importance of patience and self-compassion in recovery What men struggling with body image or disordered eating should know about asking for help Rate & Review: If you loved this episode, share it with a friend and leave us a 5-star review — it really helps us reach more folks!

Rethinking ARFID: Neurodivergence, Harm Reduction, and Food Access with Kevin Green
Sep 8, 20261h 34mS2
ARFID isn’t just about "picky eating." But avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder is far more complex—and understanding it requires us to look beyond rigid diagnostic criteria and one-size-fits-all approaches to treatment. In this episode, we're joined by Kevin Green for a conversation about ARFID, neurodivergence, queerness, harm reduction, food access, and the limitations of traditional eating disorder treatment. We explore what ARFID can look like, why sensory needs and food preferences deserve to be taken seriously, and how clinicians and caregivers can support people without turning treatment into another experience of lost autonomy. We yap about food hierarchies, trauma-informed care, the limitations of the DSM, and why understanding someone as an intersectional human being—not simply a diagnosis—matters. Things We Yap About: What ARFID is and how it differs from "picky eating" The different presentations of ARFID The relationship between ARFID and neurodivergence How trauma and lived experience can influence eating Why the DSM doesn't always capture the full picture ARFID and the intersection of queerness and neurodivergence The limitations of traditional eating disorder treatment models Harm reduction approaches to eating disorder recovery Food hierarchies and the moralization of food Supporting autonomy and self-advocacy Practical ways to make eating more accessible Food safety and access for marginalized communities Trauma-informed and noncarceral approaches to care Resources & Mentions: ENOF Powder: https://simplyenof.com/ / use code kevin15 for 15% off your order Finch App: https://finchcare.com/ Hurts So Good: The Science and Culture of Pain on Purpose by Leigh Cowart RDs for Neurodiversity: https://www.rdsforneurodiversity.com/ Harm Reduction Episode : https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-9-harm-reduction-in-ed-care-controversial-or-compassionate/id1830467596?i=1000727474010 Rate & Review: If you loved this episode, share it with a friend and leave us a 5-star review — it really helps us reach more folks!

Sep 1, 20261h 34mS2
Eating disorders are often portrayed as a problem that primarily affects women, and that stereotype can leave countless men feeling invisible, misunderstood, and unable to recognize that they need help. In the first episode of our Men's Health and Eating Disorders series , we're joined by Eric Pothen , advocate and creator behind Embracing You, to explore men's experiences with eating disorders, body image, masculinity, and recovery.

Together, we discuss how gender stereotypes can impact recognition, diagnosis, treatment, and recovery—and why creating more inclusive conversations about eating disorders matters. We also explore the role of social media, masculinity norms, LGBTQ+ experiences, vulnerability, and representation in shaping men's relationships with their bodies and mental health.

Ep 53: Body Grief: Reimagining Body Image & Self-Trust w/Bri Campos & Cilla Moore-Massey
Aug 25, 20261h 23mS2
What if some of what we experience as body image distress is actually grief? In this episode, we're joined by Bri Campos of Body Image With Bri and Cilla Moore-Massey for a conversation about body grief, body image, trauma, and what it means to build a different relationship with your body in a culture obsessed with appearance. We explore the many ways body grief can show up—including grieving changes in our bodies, identities, abilities, or the ways we once moved through the world. We also unpack why body image is about much more than whether you like what you see in the mirror. We talk about radical body acceptance, self-trust, somatic and embodiment work, systemic oppression, fatphobia, and the complicated process of taking up space in a world that often tells us to make ourselves smaller. In this episode, we yap about: What body grief is and the different ways it can show up Why body image is about perception, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—not just appearance How trauma and lived experience shape our relationship with our bodies The difference between body confidence, body acceptance, and body relationship Why healing doesn't require loving your body every day How diet culture and societal expectations contribute to body grief The role of systemic oppression, fatphobia, and intersectionality in body image Why community, witnessing, and support can be powerful parts of healing How somatic and embodiment practices can help build safety and self-trust What it can mean to take up space as an act of autonomy and resistance Resources & Mentions: Bri's 7 Step Guide Bri’s Website Bri’s Podcast Bri’s Instagram Cilla’s Website Cilla’s Instagram Rate & Review: If you loved this episode, share it with a friend and leave us a 5-star review — it really helps us reach more folks!
