We were supposed to launch Second Helpings over a year ago. But then Alice relapsed. In this episode, Alice explains why she decided to start the show anyway – and what listeners can expect from a podcast all about eating disorder recovery.

Second Helpings launches on 10/1.

This podcast isn’t just for people who avoid carbs and drink charcoal – but if you miss the taste of midnight pizza and want to start living your best life, we’re so glad you’re here.

Second Helpings is an honest conversation about eating disorder recovery with a healthy dose of dark humour. Because what’s funnier than spending years of life measuring out your cereal?

One of your hosts is a clinical psychologist. The other used to avoid going on dates because she thought they were a waste of calories. Together, they’re tackling the most pressing social issues: wellness trends, “manifestation”, and why #girldinner gets such a bad rep.

In their real and unscripted conversations, they go deep into the process of recovery and speak to guests who bring new perspectives to issues like body image, addiction, careers and modern dating.
