In this interview Mary is joined by her friend Kelly Uchima (@kellyu) to have a deep conversation about recovering from anorexia, addiction, binge eating, codependency, and toxic relationships. Kelly is also Asian American, so she shares the nuances of growing up with body-image struggles while being a person of color.

You will learn...

• the warning signs and red flags of toxic relationships (we're talking like, narcisstic abuse)

• why you can get addicted to pretty much anything (and how to break free)

• what perfectionism, eating disorders, addiction, and toxic relationships all have in common...

This is a rich, raw, and real conversation filled with true vulnerability and authentic storytelling. Please make sure to let us know how you like it by tagging @maryspodcast and @kellyu in your IG stories!
