Did you know that you don't need to be underweight to have anorexia, and that you can have all the same life-threatening health complications regardless of weight? We unpack "atypical anorexia," including why the term is so problematic here: fal.cn/3xhaQ

My thoughts on the most important aspects of leadership in Entrepreneur: 🤔 You don't need to know it all. Focus on what you're best at and surround yourself with experts in other fields. 🗒 Delegate 85% of decisions to those experts. 📈 Track what matters, not what doesn't.

Eating disorders do not discriminate, and contrary to popular belief, growing up food-insecure greatly increases the likelihood of developing an eating disorder. slate.com/technology/202…

Proud to share Equip's Annual Outcomes Report. Digital mental health has seen a proliferation of access, without adequate attention paid to quality. Equip aims to raise the bar in outcomes transparency for payers, providers, and most importantly, patients and families.

Eating disorders are one of the deadliest mental health issues that affect *all* types of people. Sadly, we live in a society that idealizes thinness, making it tough for people to fully recover. I reflected on my own recovery for the Equip blog: equip.health/articles/treat…
