Not Just Girl Talk

Starvation. Binging. Laxatives. Crash diets: How do you fall into an eating disorder? What does an eating disorder look like? And is there a way out? We talk to GeoFit Founder Yara Milbes about her own experiences with an eating disorder and body dysmorphia. Warning: This subject matter can be triggering for some. Do not listen if this subject matter will disturb you. If you have an eating disorder please seek professional help, and know you are not alone. Second warning: In this episode we joke about eating disorders because if you don't laugh, you cry.

Everyone is talking about veganism (again) thanks to 'docu-mock you-mentaries' such as The Game Changers and What the Health. Today we talk with Aysen Gultekin, calisthenics coach, mother of one and proud ex-vegan. We discuss what her experience was, the health risks associated with limiting your diet drastically and the misinformation spread in The Game Changers documentary.

Today we chat with former consultant and current personal trainer and fitness coach Holly Lohmeyer about what happened when she was diagnosed with a tumour IN her spine. Holly spent weeks believing she was dying or would end up paralysed, and surprisingly this wasn't even the hardest part - this is how it happened and how it changed her.
