Stephanie Georgiou, a clinical psychologist, discusses her mission to help women improve their relationship with food and build confidence from the inside out. She shares her personal journey with an eating disorder and the lack of support she experienced. The conversation explores the impact of societal beauty standards, dieting, and social media on body image and mental health. Stephanie provides insights on normal healthy eating patterns, the dangers of dieting, and the importance of diversifying social media feeds. She also offers advice on protecting mental health, addressing binge eating, and changing the relationship with food. 

The conversation then moves to discussing ADHD, a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects cognitive functioning and executive functioning. There is a strong link between ADHD and eating disorders, as people with ADHD seek dopamine through food.
