"Andrea's talk at Yale University was brutally truthful, yet hopeful, painful, yet inspiring. Her story shocked us, moved us, helped us and taught us. Each person left the talk reeling with ideas on how to promote eating disorder awareness."

~Lekshimi Santhos, Student Leader, Yale University

“...I have to tell you about my drive home with the girls Friday afternoon. They have hit the stage where you ask a question and get a one word answer. This day where they heard (you) talk they spent almost the entire drive home talking about it. They seemed to remember virtually every detail. I could hear them process (your) long struggle, the physical after effects, and idea of 'finding your voice.' It really made quite an impression. I am so grateful you are willing to share your story; it can't be easy doing so. Thanks again."
