About this listen
Gil and Jess speak with Amanda D'Ambra, Co-Founder and CEO of Arise, about her mission to change the game when it comes to eating disorder care. Arise is a virtual platform addressing a huge gap: 1 in 10 people will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime, but up to 90% will not get the care they need. In this episode, Amanda talks about her own eating disorder recovery journey and how it led her to start Arise. She also dissects the misconception that eating disorders are niche, advocating for why this type of treatment should be acknowledged (from a stigma standpoint) and covered (from a payment perspective) alongside any other healthcare issue. The only thing more powerful than her words on this topic is her vision for how to fix it, and it was a privilege to learn more about that through her lens.
