Nutrition in Recovery - Myth Busting with Talia Cecchele

We absolutely loved this fun myth busting episode with eating disorder specialist dietician Talia Cecchele. She explains common misconceptions from a place of so much knowledge and experience, yet her warmth makes you feel you are having a chat with a friend.

We are so excited to share this episode with you!
