    Aug 23 2023

    Do you consider yourself a workaholic? Do you reach for a drink on Friday nights to "turn off" from the week? If you had asked Dr. Pepper what her drug of choice was, she would have told you it was her work. But, as it turns out, alcohol was too.

After 13 years in clinical practice as one of Atlanta's top doctors, she opened her own cutting-edge telemedicine practice to provide high-quality, comprehensive, patient-centered care. This practice is available to all adults over 18, especially those struggling with eating disorders.

    In this episode, you will be able to:

    • Explore the problem with perfectionism and how this contributes to gray-area drinking and escapist behaviors
