The Eating Me Podcast

By Alicia Christian

The Eating Me Podcast is a space where we talk about the complexities of eating and how we all benefit, struggle, as well as celebrate our eating journey. It is also a place where conversations arise about certain topics that are "eating" at me, so it's only right to process these thoughts and feelings in this safe space.

Join Alicia Christian as she discovers how eating and other issues have shaped us as humans living on this planet.

Let's learn about ourselves and others on this road to healing, discovery, celebration, and love.
