• The Relationship Is The Secret Sauce 
• How feeling fat, dumb and ugly can teach us 

• Find a supervisor, find a therapist who will help you stay attuned to the relationship in which that healing is happening.  
• Insight isn’t curative but it’s essential 
• Saw myself in the textbook - At least 30% of us in the field with lived experience with ED- it was RADICAL to talk about it 
• How privilege informs our experience, understanding intersectionality, how it impacts us as professionals  
• “I marvel at what younger therapists are learning” 

• Recognize our limitation – it’s ok to have 2 therapists or transfer to those who specialize in the work most needed.
