Drawing from her personal experience with an eating disorder, Aimee shares her journey of recovery and how it inspired her to take on weight-based discrimination and champion health at every size.

    Together, Jason and Aimee explore the often-overlooked consequences of eating disorders, the importance of changing societal attitudes, and how policies can drive meaningful change. Aimee also reflects on her involvement with the Colorado Youth Advisory Council and the critical role education and advocacy play in preventing and addressing eating disorders, especially in the wake of the pandemic.

    Tune in for an inspiring conversation with a young trailblazer whose personal battles have fueled a vision for creating systemic change in mental health.
