This week features Gemma, a young woman with a hell of a story. With more life experience than most of her peers, she recounts her journey from Australia to France to Surrey, England- all included in this very intimate and personal conversation. Opening up about her experiences with bulimia, this podcast aims to inform its causes and effects.
