Discovering Inner Peace on your Ongoing Recovery Journey with Lara Rebecca

In this week's episode, Han is joined by Lara Rebecca. Lara is a Mental Health & Eating Disorder Awareness Advocate, and hosts The Keep Smiling Podcast to destigmatise mental health and raise awareness. Lara joins me today to discuss her own recovery journey, and how she worked to rebuild her identity post eating disorder.

This week's podcast was a lovely little ramble down a path with Lara and I. We spoke about recovery, identity, finding yourself, and the true beauty of no longer having the eating disorder overshadow every element of your life. This conversation was beautiful, like two friends excited for their futures together, and I really hope you enjoy sitting with a cup of tea and some biscuits, giggling along with us.

To find out more about Lara, you can find her on Instagram @lara_rebecca, YouTube @lararebecca4668 or visit https://keepsmiling.buzzsprout.com/ to listen to the Keep Smiling Podcast.

Kindly note, that this episode delves into sensitive eating disorder topics. Remember to take care of yourself while listening, and always seek professional help if needed. This podcast is your bridge to insightful discussions, not a substitute for clinical guidance.
