In this podcast episode, I dive deep into a conversation with Mason, a passionate runner with a profound journey from disliking hiking as a child to becoming a notable runner, including competing in college and eventually embracing trail running after college.
Growing up in Southern California with access to beautiful trails, Mason initially detested hiking but discovered a love for running after outpacing his brother and engaging in sports like football and street hockey. Despite struggling in team sports due to his size, Mason found his stride in running, fueled by sibling rivalry and a desire to qualify for a school 'Olympics.'
His journey took him to Furman University in South Carolina, where he continued running competitively but started feeling burnt out towards the end. The introduction to trail running rekindled his passion for the sport, leading to a shift towards running on trails post-graduation.
Mason also discusses the dynamics of transitioning from Division 1 running to trail running, his interest in sub-ultra running for its speed and intensity, and his experiences and perspectives on running road marathons, including hitting 'the wall.'
Moreover, the conversation touches on challenges like body image issues among male runners and the significance of embracing failures as learning opportunities. Mason shares upcoming runs and encourages engagement in sub-ultra and mountain races.

In this episode, Sarah, one of my friends from my first corporate job, talks about her ongoing struggle with eating disorders.
Growing up, Sarah was heavily influenced by her mother, who herself had disordered eating, and this shaped Sarah's unhealthy relationship with food. Sarah shares candidly about periods of restriction, binging, and orthorexia throughout her adult life, exacerbated by stress and mental health struggles.
Therapy has significantly helped Sarah, and she is currently focusing on rebuilding her physical health and managing her relationship with food. Despite still finding herself in the throes of struggle, Sarah emphasizes the importance of seeking help and not letting societal definitions of eating disorders hinder individuals from getting the support they need.

For the 5th episode in this series, I welcome Erin, a college friend, for a candid discussion about our shared experiences with eating disorders. Erin shares her struggle with bulimia, which peaked her sophomore year in college.
She analyses the societal pressures and her personal insecurities that led to her disorder and the emotional turmoil felt during the ordeal. Erin shares her journey towards recovery, marked by learning to shift her focus from how her body looks to what her body can do, as she builds a positive relationship with her body and food while pursuing her love for running.
Our conversation highlights the often overlooked vulnerability of high school and college-aged students towards eating disorders, the pervasiveness of diet culture, and the crucial role a positive environment plays in recovery and maintaining a healthy body image.

In this episode, I am joined by dietitian Chiara for a discussion about eating disorders as part of the February Eating Disorders series.
Chiara shares her personal journey of dealing with an eating disorder for a decade while studying to be a dietitian. This disorder, which went unrecognized for a long time due to societal normalization and stigma, severely impacted Chiara's life and relationships.
In 2017, after a significant turning point, Chiara began her path to recovery. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the reality behind food and body image, discussing her struggles with body dissatisfaction amid changing body during pregnancy.
Chiara also mentions the role climbing had in perpetuating her disorder, reinforcing weight-loss culture. Today, Chiara works as a weight-inclusive non-diet dietitian primarily with climbers, focusing on creating healthy relationships with food and the body.
