Cristina Castignini: Eating Disorders at Any Age

  1. Cristina Castignini: Eating Disorders at Any Age Boom With A Bang! 51:23

Cristina Castignini had an eating disorder.  Once she had her PhD in Counseling Psychology, perhaps it was inevitable that she focus in on eating disorders.

In this episode, Cristina explains eating disorders and blows some myths out of the water.

As women, we tend to think that young women are the prime suspects for eating disorders, but Menopause can also be a trigger.

I’m fairly sure I’ve not had an eating disorder but some of Cristina’s examples really hit home for me… remnants of the Diet mentality?

What do you not say to someone with an eating disorder, or that you’re concerned might have an eating disorder? Cristina helps us out.

I’ve probably done most of the things you expect a woman my age to have done: married and divorced; three children; variety of jobs over the years including a couple of home-based businesses and, finally, a pretty good career; gave up that career (and home and life) to move and take care of a dementing mother; adult daughter moved back home with a baby; financial struggles; sucker-punched by the post-2007 economy. You tell a similar story.

My podcast is for Boomer Women. A variety of subjects, a variety of viewpoints... and open to suggestions if I'm not covering a topic you want to hear about.
