I'm thrilled to introduce Cassie Pierre, a friend who goes beyond her Instagram influencer status to share a story that's both inspiring and challenging. Our journey with Cassie starts from her bold decision, at just 17, to join the Marine Corps, and how her recruiter became the father figure she needed, crafting a newfound family in the marines.

From the pressure-cooker of military standards to her treatment in a Virginia facility, Cassie peels back the curtain on the grueling process of confronting and managing her eating disorder.
