Eating Disorder Insights and How Full Recovery is Possible with Mia Findlay

Eating Disorder Insights and How Full Recovery is Possible with Mia Findlay

Author: freyagraf November 17, 2025 Duration: 1:45:19

This week in The Labia Lounge eating disorder recovery coach, Mia Findlay, shares her raw and unfiltered personal story, going way beyond the stereotypes to bust common myths and spark real hope for full recovery.

We unpack the sneaky ways modern society, diet culture and social media reinforce disordered eating, why ‘just eat a burger’ is the most toxic phrase around, and how to actually spot warning signs in people you love.

Plus, Mia reveals the behind-the-scenes truth of recovery clinics, the crisis of underfunding, and why body comments—even well-meaning, "positive" ones—can be surprisingly harmful.


Mia comes from a place of lived experience to powerful advocacy now that she's fully recovered, and you’ll learn:

  • What recovery really means (it’s not just remission!)
  • How shame and the desire to belong fuel disordered behaviours
  • Why eating disorders affect ALL kinds of bodies and people
  • Practical advice for supporting friends, family, and yourself
  • The hope and truth that recovery IS possible
  • Undercover warning signs or early markers of disordered behaviour
  • What NOT to do or say
  • Some little-known myths and misconceptions
  • Risk factors


If you’ve ever struggled with body image, food, or want the REAL, behind-the-scenes lowdown on eating disorders, this is a must-listen. Let’s smash stigmas, support each other, and get empowered to tackle this together.
