Naomi Savin, a writer, recovery advocate and blogger, joins Nia Patterson for an episode about eating disorders and exercise addiction. This week on the tenth episode of the podcast we talk about Naomi's experience with anorexia when she was in high school and the exercise addiction she developed as a result of that. She talks about her life growing up while restricting food and the ways that hunger manifested in her life. We talk about how her exercise addiction started from her love of running and progressed into an illness that pushed her to overexercise constantly. We then move on to discuss her writing and content on her Instagram account and how she writes for her 15 year old self in her posts. She also throws in some good book recommendations along the way! Join us as we talk about eating disorders, mental health, exercise and food.
Naomi is an Idaho native and recovery advocate who chronicles her experiences with eating disorders, exercise addiction, and leaving diet culture behind on her Instagram @dietculturesucks. She lives in DC and loves politics, spending time with her friends, reading, and drinking fancy lattes.
