Two Black Sheep, One Secret: The "B" Word

We looked successful. Strong. Disciplined. In control. Behind closed doors? We were at war with food. In this episode, Janine Stella sits down with psychotherapist Rachel Blogg, LCSW, and for the first time, both women speak publicly about their personal battles with bulimia and disordered eating. Not the version you see in after-school specials — the high-functioning version. The “she just works out a lot” version. The food journals, the rigid schedules, the bathroom escapes, the exercise that wasn’t about health but about control...with no REAL control.

They talk about shame at seven years old, college diets, exercise bulimia, trauma that never got processed, and the lie that if you look strong on the outside, you must be okay on the inside. Eating disorders don’t always look sick. Sometimes they look successful. Two black sheep. One secret. No more silence. If you’ve ever felt powerful in public and powerless in private, you are not alone.
