Welcome to another episode of Food, Freedom, and Fertility. Host Sophia Pavia speaks with Jillian Lampert and Kezia Reeder with Accanto Health, the parent company of The Emily Program and Gather Behavioral Health.

Jillian Lampert oversees the public affairs, communications, and public relations activities, including cultivating and maintaining industry relations, leading organizational advocacy and policy involvement, supporting public relations highlighting the organization’s role as an industry thought leader, and spearheading availability of key educational content available to the public and external providers.

She is Co-Founder and President of the REDC, the national consortium representing eating disorders care focused on treatment standards, best practices, access to care, and collaborative research. She is also Treasurer of the Eating Disorders Coalition, a DC-based national organization for eating disorders policy and advocacy, and a Board Member of WithAll, a Minnesota-based organization that empowers eating disorder prevention and strengthens support for recovery. She holds an adjunct graduate faculty position in the Department of Food Science and Nutrition at the University of Minnesota.

Kezia Reeder is the Director of Clinical Operations at Accanto Health (with brands The Emily Program and Gather Behavioral Health), where she leads with compassion and expertise. Kezia became involved in the eating disorder field after struggling with, and recovering from, an eating disorder in college. As a mother to a young daughter, Kezia is driven by her desire to create a more supportive and inclusive environment for future generations. Combining her professional skills with her personal mission, she is a fierce advocate for eating disorders awareness and treatment, passionately working to improve client care and access.

Sophia, Jillian and Kezia have an in depth discussion on eating disorders impacting your fertility, how to overcome it and ways to seek help. They also spoke about how having struggled with an eating disorder in your past does not mean you will automatically struggle trying to conceive.
