Isabella Fels

Staying healthy and in shape can be a difficult task for anyone at the best of times, but try keeping trim when you have OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). Today on Brainwaves we examine what drives people to binge eat with our special guest - writer and poet Isabella Fels. Isabella has since a young age had trouble with her eating habits, exacerbated by her mental health conditions and OCD, but more recently has been on the improve.

Evan and Isabella try to get to the root of the problem and highlight what steps you can take to a better life and stay healthy trying to manage or even overcome such a problem.

We hear some of her poetry on the subject too.

Isabella is a good friend and I hope you enjoy the show!

Look out for her writing in Q Magazine, Eureka Street and Medium website too. She really loves to help others with her writing.
