How do you build a meaningful career in the field of eating disorders? Where do you even begin? In this inspiring and deeply human conversation, host Kyle Woodson is joined by iaedp Executive Director Dawn Gannon and iaedp President Dr. Eva Trujillo for an honest discussion about what it means to start and sustain a career in this complex and deeply personal field.
With nearly three decades of experience, Dr. Trujillo shares the “why” that has guided her journey: a fierce commitment to justice, humility, and compassion in the face of inequities and stigma. Together, they discuss the power of finding your purpose, building community, and showing up authentically even when the path is anything but linear.
This episode is full of invaluable advice for clinicians, researchers, and advocates at every stage:
Why curiosity and cultural humility matter more than perfection
How to find mentors and build authentic connections in the field
Tips for getting involved, from volunteering to submitting your first conference abstract
Why the field needs your unique voice, lived experience, and perspective right now
Whether you’re a student, a new clinician, or simply considering specializing in eating disorders, this conversation is a heartfelt reminder: you don’t have to have it all figured out to make a difference.
Listen now and step into the field with confidence, integrity, and community behind you.
