Episode 32 - Eating Disorders & Body Image with Elizabeth Megrabyan

How do we, as a society, measure a woman's value? How should it be measured? How do we treat women who don't look the way society says they should? And what kind of damage are next-to-impossible standards doing to young girls and women of all ages? Elizabeth Megrabyan joins us for an honest and unflinching look at the price we sometimes pay in order to pursue perfection. [Editor's note: while eating disorders also affect men, the societal pressures still disproportionately fall on women.]

If you think you may have an eating disorder, please contact the National Eating Disorders hotline at 1-800-931-2237 or visit their website here: NEDA
