It's Never Too Late to be a Work in Progress with Betsy Brenner

Recovery Bites

In this episode, Karin is joined by Betsy Brenner, author, high school tennis coach, eating disorder recovery speaker, peer support mentor, and support group co-leader. Betsy’s recovery story has been shared widely on many eating disorders blogs and websites. She recently published her memoir, “The Longest Match: Rallying to Defeat an Eating Disorder in Mid-Life”

Join Karin and Betsy as they discuss the components of an eating disorder “perfect storm,” coping with the reemergence of buried, internalized experiences, the importance of self-care, vulnerability as an acceptable and necessary practice, changing the role of movement from obsessive to healing, the challenges of meeting one’s needs, the deeper level of healing that comes with sharing one’s story, the evolution of Betsy’s recovery story, the process of publishing her memoir, “The Longest Match: Rallying to Defeat an Eating Disorder in Mid-Life,” and much more.
