Exercise & Hope with Julia Trehane This week, we're joined by fellow Eating Disorder Recovery Coach, podcast host and speaker Julia Trehane. After living with orthorexia and exercise addiction for over 40 years, Julia is now fully recovered and helps others move beyond symptom management to address the deeper roots of an eating disorder.
