IN THIS EPISODE:
In this episode, I am joined by Kristie Amadio. Kristie is no stranger to the perils of seeking recovery from an eating disorder. After facing discouragement and struggle to try to find professional treatment in Australia and New Zealand, Kristie traveled to the States for 7 months of residential treatment. Kristie continued her early recovery journey with the help of an online therapist and dietician; little did she know that this experience would be the spark that helped her create Recovered Living. As the founder and CEO of this innovative and groundbreaking Eating Recovery Coach platform, Kristie now helps clients by providing practical services tailored to each individual’s needs.
SOME OF THE TOPICS DISCUSSED:
The gift of accepting help for the recovery process.
Learning and living the life skills needed without an eating disorder.
The extra support provided from virtual and live-in recovery coaches.
Body acceptance and making peace with your body.
Shifting your values.
Authentically being yourself in recovery.
ABOUT KRISTIE AMADIO:
Kristie Amadio is Founder and CEO of Recovered Living, which offers online eating disorder recovery coaching as well as 24/7 live-in support to people both domestically and internationally.
After 14 years of battling her eating disorder and seeking treatment in both Australia and New Zealand— where she was told she was ‘chronic’ and should expect to struggle with food and body image issues for the rest of her life— Kristie flew to America for intensive treatment and made a full recovery. The experience of multiple treatments in different countries led her to develop Recovered Living; a one-of-a-kind online and face-to-face support system for people in recovery. With a worldwide reach, Recovered Living provides online recovery coaching as well as in-home 24/7 live-in support. The mission for Recovered Living is about making treatment accessible and affordable for everyone, no matter where they live. All of their Coaches are fully recovered and hold the belief that the same can be true for you too
Kristie was stunned by the gap and unequal access to support and resources both here and overseas, so she resolved to make cost-effective support available to everyone, no matter where they lived. By working online and living with people in recovery all around the world, Kristie Amadio is adding a new dimension to the platform used to treat eating disorders. Kristie is a Certified Eating Disorder Coach with the Carolyn Costin Institute.
One of a kind, irrepressible enthusiasm, and candid honesty is what forms the basis of Kristie’s essence. She uses the same strength she required in her own recovery to guide and inspire others, while her genuine compassion allows her to connect easily with clients.
