Client Quote #50: not passing this sh*t down
One of the biggest reasons I love my work is because I get to witness the incredible capacity of courage, strength, and love through my clients. I am so inspired by folks of all walks of life wanting to challenge their upbringing and comfort zones, putting themselves at risk of pain and turmoil, and dive in head first into uncertainty so they can recover from their ED and not only to stop their own suffering but also to stop the passing down of an unhealthy relationship with food and body for future generations.
With the odds stacked up against self-love, it feels like a miracle that someone with an ED would choose recovery and yet, I see it happen all the time.
