H2L Ep.18 - When Exercise becomes a form of Self Harm - Sydney Freidin, previous NCAA gymnast, mental health advocate and ED Recovery

**TRIGGER WARNING ** On today’s episode, Rachel continues her conversation with Sydney Freidin. Sydney’s battle with over exercise (exercise bulimia), inevitably ended her career in gymnastics. Sydney talks about diet culture, clean eating, orthorexia, perfectionism and getting help before it’s too late. This episode is for the male and female listener, as we are blasted with images and ads perpetuating an unhealthy idea that “fit”, “skinny”, and “in shape” equates with happiness.
