Episode description

In this episode of For The Hayters, we sit down with Stephanie, a Navy veteran, mother, and survivor of anorexia nervosa. Diagnosed at 22 after years of silent suffering, she opens up about how the stress of deployment and a toxic relationship contributed to her eating disorder. Stephanie shares her journey from feeling out of control to seeking treatment, navigating the ups and downs of recovery, and ultimately finding self-love and a healthy relationship with food. Now, as a mother of two, she reflects on how her experience has shaped the way she approaches body image and self-acceptance.
