LGBTQIA+ Eating Disorder Research — In Conversation with Lived‑Experience Educator Shannon Calvert
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
New research is shedding light on the unique experiences of LGBTQIA+ people living with eating disorders — a community often overlooked in mainstream studies. In this Queer Conversation, LOTL speaks with Shannon Calvert, a lived‑experience educator and advocate, about the urgent need for inclusive research, the gaps that still exist, and how stigma and discrimination shape the realities of queer people seeking support.
Shannon discusses the importance of centring lived experience in research, the barriers LGBTQIA+ communities face in accessing care, and what meaningful, culturally safe support should look like. This conversation highlights why queer‑specific data matters — and how it can transform treatment, policy, and visibility.
