Why Binge Eating Disorder Is Being Missed by GPs: Screening, Stigma & GLP-1s with Dr Stella Kozmér
Aug 17, 202650 minS1
This week on the Full of Beans podcast, Han is joined by Dr Stella Kozmér, an NIHR SPCR-funded Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Exeter, a Researcher at the University of Oxford, and an incoming Trainee Clinical Psychologist at the University of Oxford. Coming from an Eastern European background, Stella's research focuses on the identification and management of binge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa in primary care settings, using mixed-methods research to inform NHS clinical guidelines, policy and practice. Her work is driven by her own lived experience, which she integrates into the core of what she does. In This Episode: Stella's personal and professional journey into binge eating disorder research How Stella felt in recognising BED after a decade of not having a name for it Why Stella felt stigma and shame disclosing her mental health issues in healthcare Why lived experience is a strength in research, not a bias to hide Why primary care screening tools for binge eating disorder and bulimia fall short The problem with SCOFF and other outdated eating disorder screening criteria How weight stigma affects whether binge eating disorder gets identified at all Why GPs are hesitant to talk about BED without services to refer patients to The real-world cost of untreated binge eating disorder and its comorbidities How to use the diabetes care model as a blueprint without more funding A review of GLP-1 medications for binge eating disorder What the GLP-1 evidence does and doesn't tell us, and the misuse risks to consider Why treatment for binge eating disorder must be personalised, not one-size-fits-all ⚠️ Content note: this episode discusses eating disorders (including binge eating disorder and bulimia), disordered eating, weight stigma, obesity, and prescription medication.

This week on the Full of Beans podcast, Han is joined by Elle Mace, a food psychology and body image practitioner, international speaker and debut author of Food Freedom , published by Vermilion/Penguin later this year.

Alongside her one-to-one and speaking work, Elle hosts the More to Life podcast .

Elle's approach is simple: food freedom is psychological, and everyone deserves the understanding and support to get there. In this episode, we explore: Elle's journey to writing Food Freedom and putting her disordered eating experience into words Why awareness is the hardest, and most essential, first step in recovery How toxic wellness culture can disguise itself as something healthy Elle's experience of body dysmorphia and how it showed up beyond just weight and shape Elle's shift between different eating disorders over the years, and why none of them ever really "ended" on their own The rock-bottom moment that led Elle to ask for help What eating disorder recovery actually looked like for Elle Why relationships, jobs and old patterns sometimes have to shift as part of getting well Protecting your energy in recovery, and why that isn't the same as being selfish Why hearing relatable, lived experiences can land differently to clinical information Connect with Us: Subscribe to the Full of Beans Podcast Follow Full of Beans on Instagram Check out our website Listen on YouTube Connect with Elle via Instagram ( @iamellemace) , LinkedIn or via her website www.ellemace.com ⚠️ Content Note: This episode discusses eating disorders (including restriction, binge eating and bulimia), body dysmorphia, and body dissatisfaction.

The Healing Power of Art Therapy in Eating Disorder Recovery with Jessica Mackney
Jul 27, 202640 minS1
This week, Han is joined by Jessica Mackney, an HCPC-registered Art Psychotherapist passionate about how art therapy can help people explore experiences that may be difficult to put into words and build meaningful therapeutic relationships, while increasing awareness of the role art therapy plays in supporting recovery in eating disorder treatment. Working from a trauma-informed, non-judgemental approach, Jess supports people across the lifespan with eating disorders, autism, SEN, and complex trauma, across the NHS, education, and non-profit sectors, with a particular focus on young people and eating disorders. In this episode, we explore: What art therapy actually is beyond common misconceptions ("just drawing or painting") How the relationship between therapist, client and the artwork itself carries meaning Why perfectionism and control (often present in eating disorders) can make engaging with art materials difficult How art therapy offers a route into communication when verbal expression feels inaccessible or unsafe The role of choice, agency and non-judgement in the therapy space Working with people who are non-verbal or struggling to access words for their experience How the connection between body, senses and materials can support reconnection for those with eating disorders Han's own experience of art, perfectionism, and rediscovering creativity after her eating disorder How art can hold and express difficult emotions — including anger and frustration — safely Ways people can explore the benefits of creative expression at home, distinct from clinical art therapy Connect with Us: Subscribe to the Full of Beans Podcast Follow Full of Beans on Instagram Check out our website Listen on YouTube Connect with Jessica via LinkedIn . ⚠️ Content Note: This episode includes discussion of eating disorders, disordered eating, and self-harm.

No Longer Legally Detained: From Inpatient Care to Activism, Empowerment and Art with Hannah Whitfield
Jul 20, 202656 minS1
Have you ever been in and out of hospital so many times that everyone around you quietly stopped believing you'd ever get better, so you started to believe it too? This episode is for you." This week on the Full of Beans Podcast, I'm joined by Hannah Whitfield, a creative activist, writer, speaker, performer and founder of Legally Detained - a lived-experience-led creative platform transforming survival into power through art, activism and unapologetic storytelling. Her work explores neurodivergence, trauma, mental health systems, eating disorder recovery, inclusion and the power of creative expression. Through speaking, writing, performance, consultancy and her podcast No Longer Legally Detained, Hannah challenges systems that ask people to become smaller to survive, and instead creates work that says: we were never broken - we were surviving worlds that were never built with us in mind. In this episode, we explore: Where Legally Detained came from Hannah's experience of psychiatric admissions Being placed on a ward that didn't believe her eating disorder was "real" Becoming a "revolving door patient" across CAMHS, adult services, and secure care The problem with BMI criteria as a gatekeeper for treatment Where restrictive practice crosses the line from safety into cruelty The rock-bottom moment that changed everything How an ADHD diagnosis helped Hannah understand her own patterns for the first time Reframing recovery: it's not a "utopia," it's learning to ride the wave Why purpose and belonging, not just words, are what help people recover Connect with Us: Subscribe to the Full of Beans Podcast Follow Full of Beans on Instagram Check out our website Listen on YouTube Connect with Hannah via Instagram @legallydetained , her website , blog, or podcast: No Longer Legally Detained. ⚠️ Content Note: This episode contains discussions of eating disorder treatment, inpatient care, and iatrogenic harm.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.

Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
