During this week’s radio show you will learn about:

Why eating disorders can be viewed like a relationship, rather than an illness.
How to overcome negative body image.
National Kale Day
The link between diet and happiness

Jenni Schaefer’s straightforward style has made her a role model, source of inspiration and confidant to people worldwide looking to overcome adversity and live more fully.

She presents regularly at colleges and universities, including Harvard and Yale, in corporate settings, at conferences and in many other venues. Chair of the Ambassador’s Council of the National Eating Disorders Association, she has been interviewed on many syndicated radio and television shows, including appearances onToday, Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil, and her work has been recognized by publications ranging from Cosmopolitan toThe New York Times.

Jenni’s breakthrough bestseller, Life Without Ed, which has recently been released in a tenth-anniversary edition as well as audiobook, established her as one of the leading lights in the recovery movement. Her next book, Goodbye Ed, Hello Me, widened her message to one of self-actualization and personal fulfillment. With her latest, to help the millions of people who struggle in the grey area between normal eating and full-blown eating disorder, she teamed up with Harvard Medical School to write Almost Anorexic.

Jenni lives in Austin, Texas with her husband. For more information, please visit www.jennischaefer.com.
