Kills Birds: Living w/Depression & Toxic Relationship Recovery w/Johanna Kandel (Natnl Alliance For Eating Disorders)

Written By Mari F

Mari Fong interviews Nina Ljeti and Jacob Loeb of Kills Birds, and Johanna Kandel of the National Alliance For Eating Disorders.  Nina and Jacob of the band Kills Birds share their  pandemic challenges, depression solutions, Nina's toxic relationship recovery, and the story behind Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters inviting the band to record their latest album, "Married," at his studio and as an opening act for the Foos. We play a clip of their single, "Rabbit" inspired by Nina's abusive relationship.

Next, we have mental health expert Johanna Kandel, founder and CEO of the National Alliance For Eating Disorders and author of "Life Beyond Your Eating Disorder." A former ballerina and 10-year survivor of eating disorders, Johanna gives recovery advice, how The Alliance can help, and their "Not One More" Weekend,  Feb. 25-27, 2022, which features advocates like singer-songwriter Demi Lovato as a part of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week.
