Podcast: The Anxious Achiever
Episode: Eating Disorders, Body Image, Anxiety with Melissa Gerson
Description: For so many high-achievers, food becomes the one thing we can control when everything else feels uncertain. In this episode, Iām joined by Melissa Gerson, founder of the Columbus Park Treatment Center for Eating Disorders, to talk about the relationship between anxiety, perfectionism, and the way we eat. We dive into why disordered eating serves a purpose, how restriction and overeating can both feel like relief, and what happens in your brain when anxiety and food become entangled. Tune in to rethink your relationship with food, anxiety, and control.
