This was a very special episode for me, as someone who has OCD, and a husband with ADHD (fun relationship combination, highly recommend). Aleta is wonderful, and I loved every second of our conversation.

For the month of August, I'll be taking a bit of time reset, rest, and reflect on this season of the pod before kicking things off again in September. And in the meantime, we'll be revisiting a few episodes from last year. Whether you've heard them before or not, they're worth the listen!

Aleta Storch joins the pod to talk about her experience growing up with ADHD, how her disordered eating began in college, and the ways in which that manifested alongside her navigating a mental health condition. Abbie shares ways in which this relates to her experiences with anxiety and OCD. We also discuss food rules when you have a mental health condition, how athletes are impacted by diet culture, how Aleta realized she needed support for disordered eating, what finally propelled her to look into a diagnosis for ADHD, and how she came into the weight-inclusive anti-diet approach. We also explore neurodivergence and eating – how to cultivate a less chaotic relationship with food so you can physically nourish your body while supporting yourself mentally and emotionally. This was a wonderful conversation, and I think there is something for everyone in this one, regardless of what you’ve experienced from a mental health standpoint.

Aleta is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist as well as a Washington State Licensed Mental Health Counselor. She is the founder of Wise Heart Nutrition where she provides weight-inclusive, compassionate nutrition and mental health support. Aleta has combined-type ADHD, and dedicates much of her work to the neurodivergent population.
