Welcome back to the Fitness and Family Podcast! In this episode, we talk to MarieClaire Dorinksy, who is a student at The Bowling Green State University. After struggling with an eating disorder in high school—fueled by the pressures of social media and the isolation during COVID—she has turned her experience into a mission to help others. Through her ongoing recovery, MaryClaire has developed a deep sense of self-awareness and a passion for speaking openly about mental health.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The early signs and warning signals of an eating disorder
• How social media and the COVID pandemic influenced her relationship with food and body image
• Navigating recovery
• The importance of self-awareness and speaking up
• Why recovery is a lifelong journey, not a destination
• Advice for parents, friends, and anyone supporting a loved one with an eating disorder
• Ways to build a healthier relationship with food, body image, and mental health

MaryClaire's story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, asking for help is a sign of strength, and no one has to walk this journey alone.

🎧 Be sure to follow, download, and share this episode with someone who may need encouragement or hope. Together, we can continue the conversation around mental health and eating disorder awareness.

Welcome back to The Fitness and Family Podcast and thank you for listening! A few months ago, I had the opportunity to welcome Sherri Herman, a licensed clinical psychotherapist, onto the podcast. In Episode 26, we had a powerful conversation about overcoming perfectionism and people-pleasing.

She gave me the opportunity to write a guest blog post for her email community focusing on fitness and overcoming the changing seasons. This was my very first time writing a blog post, and we were both so excited about how it turned out that I decided to bring the conversation here to the podcast.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

• The 4 key tips to help you stay consistent with your health and fitness, even during life’s busiest seasons.

So, grab a pen and paper, download this episode, and let’s dive.
