In this teleconference, Thom will once again be joined by Jeanette Henriques (on the Mentor Connect Board of Directors) and Cheryl Kerrigan (author of "Telling ED NO!"), this time to discuss how an addiction recovery model can make all the difference in your work to separate from Ed once and for all. “My methods have always been based on my professional and personal experience with addiction recovery,” Thom says. “My clients who understand the similarities and how to use addiction recovery strategies tend to develop much stronger foundations for building the lives they want beyond their eating disorders.”
Thom Rutledge is the author of several books, including "Embracing Fear: How to Turn What Scares Us into Our Greatest Gift". His INTRApersonal Therapy methods are used extensively by out-patient and residential eating disorder treatment programs in the U.S. and Australia.

This month's teleconference topic is “Telling Ed No!”, which of course is one of our favorite topics here on MentorCONNECT. To present on this powerful topic, we are especially excited to welcome one of MentorCONNECT’s own Leadership Team directors, Cheryl Kerrigan.
Cheryl Kerrigan is an author, speaker and eating disorder survivor. She is the author of “Telling ED NO! and Other Practical Tools to Conquer Your Eating Disorder and Find Freedom”. She is also a contributing author to multiple eating disorder recovery books and to getridofed.blogspot.com, a weekly recovery blog. Cheryl “brings recovery to life” by speaking regularly about her experiences at schools and treatment centers around the country. As I mentioned, she also serves on MentorCONNECT’s leadership board, but in addition to that, Cheryl also serves as a mentor herself to individuals who are working their way through the recovery process. Cheryl’s story is a shining example to all of us for how to turn a life challenge into a true triumph AND a way to ‘pay it forward’ to help others. Please visit Cheryl online at tellingedno.com for more information about her story, her book, and her work.

For this raw and honest teleconference Thom Rutledge, MentorCONNECT’s founding teleconference presenter and Advisory Board member, hits Ed where it hurts as we discuss the hardest parts of recovery from an eating disorder. In this teleconference, called “Let’s Talk About What Sucks the Most – An Honest Conversation About the Hardest Parts of Recovery”, Thom answers your questions, shares his expertise as a national speaker, trainer, and therapist on the subject of eating disorders recovery, and gives us the inside fast track on kicking Ed to the curb, persistence-style. You can learn more about Thom and his work at www.nutshellwisdom.com.
In this teleconference, Thom is ably assisted by none other than Cheryl Kerrigan and Jeanette, whom many of you know and love from their leadership role on MentorCONNECT’s board. What you may not know is that Cheryl is a former client of Thom’s who has not only fully recovered, but has since published an incredible book about her journey to success. Cheryl’s new book is called “Telling Ed NO! And Other Practical Tools to Conquer Your Eating Disorder and Find Freedom”. You can learn more at www.cherylkerrigan.net. Jeanette is also a tireless advocate for persevering to do the hard work that recovery requires no matter what your circumstances may be.
