Healing Eating Disorders Through Faith Based Care with Amie Shields and Ashlee Benson

In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with Amy and Ashley to talk about something many people don’t fully understand but countless people silently struggle with: eating disorders.

Amy shares her powerful story of trauma, shame, and survival, and how God redeemed her pain into a mission that is now helping women find healing every day. Today, she leads a nonprofit residential treatment center in North Florida, offering both clinical excellence and deep spiritual care to women battling life-threatening eating disorders.

This conversation goes beyond surface-level understanding. It explores the emotional, physical, and spiritual realities of eating disorders and how true healing requires all three.

Whether you’re personally struggling, love someone who is, or simply want to understand how to help, this episode matters.
