The best words to describe my eating disorder recovery: confusing & lonely.

This book is the support I wanted using words, recipes, and food photography that aims to provide the love my body needed, for bodies that need the same. Meal support and emotional guidance are two of the bigger aspects of recovery, and two areas that I’ve had to spend time working with in order to properly comprehend a healthy approach. I hoped to make this as personal as I could, because this type of healing requires an intense level of sensitivity and vulnerability. My audience required, and deserves, the same level of vulnerability in order to be supported.
