Building a Life Beyond Treatment: Eating Disorder Recovery and Finding Purpose with Harper Reed

In this episode of Mental Note Podcast, Ellie Pike sits down with Harper Reed—eating disorder survivor and recovery coach—for an honest conversation about eating disorder recovery, grief, anxiety, and what it really takes to rebuild your life after feeling stuck. Harper shares how years of cycling in and out of treatment eventually gave way to a powerful mindset shift: realizing she had to build a life worth recovering for. Together, they explore identity beyond diagnosis, the challenge of unstructured time, and the small, meaningful steps that help us reconnect to purpose. Whether you're navigating recovery, processing loss, or simply feeling stuck in a rut, this episode offers grounded hope and practical encouragement for moving forward—one manageable step at a time.
