Robb Evans on Losing His Daughter to Anorexia | Eating Disorder Advocacy & Liv’s Legacy
In this powerful and emotional podcast episode, we sit down with Robb Evans—high-performance coach, health strategist, and father—who shares the heartbreaking story of losing his 15-year-old daughter, Liv, to anorexia.
What started as subtle warning signs spiraled into 40+ hospital admissions, medical misdiagnoses, and systemic healthcare failures—until Robb turned his grief into a global movement. Liv’s Legacy has now raised $56.5 million for eating disorder prevention, recovery programs, and mental health advocacy.
Key Topics Covered:
- Parenting a child with an eating disorder
- Fighting for better mental health care
- How social media harms body image (and how Robb helped change laws)
- Hospital-in-the-home programs for recovery
- Turning tragedy into advocacy
