How Eating Disorders Really Start...
How Eating Disorders Really Start—it's never about the food 🖤

The Flavored Word 🎙️ by Shauna Gabriel

Episode notes

Eating disorders don’t follow a script. There’s no single trauma, no neat origin story, no universal trigger. For some people, food becomes a tool — the one thing they can control when everything else is slipping. In this episode, I talk about the misconceptions, the adrenaline‑then‑shame cycle, and why the “just eat” approach misses the entire point.
