iaedp Tampa: Recovery Gala Featuring Author: Mallary Tenore Tarpley

Join the local chapter of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals (iaedp) for our Annual Recovery Gala, a special evening dedicated to fostering hope and celebrating the journey of recovery. This year's gala serves as a vital fundraiser to support our co-sponsor - The Alliance for Eating Disorders. Proceeds will go to directly support Tampa Bay's two FREE clinician-led eating disorder support groups.

Event Details:

• Date: Sunday, December 7th
• Time: 11am-2pm (Lunch provided)
• Location: The Centre Club - 123 S West Shore Blvd 8th Floor, Tampa, FL 33609
• Who: This event is open to the public, those clinicians, individuals, families and friends affected by eating disorders are encouraged to attend.

We are honored to welcome journalist, professor, and author Mallary Tenore Tarpley as our distinguished guest speaker. Mallary is a leading voice in a new conversation about eating disorder recovery. She brings a powerful blend of personal experience and professional reporting to her work, offering a raw and honest look at the path to healing.

Mallary's groundbreaking debut book, Slip, challenges the conventional "before and after" narrative of eating disorder recovery. Through a combination of memoir, extensive interviews, and cutting-edge research, she introduces the concept of "the middle place"—the liminal space between sickness and full recovery where slips are expected and progress is always possible.

Slip is a restorative narrative that illuminates the messiness of recovery without sugarcoating difficult truths. It provides a compassionate and realistic framework for those with lived experience, their loved ones, and the professionals who support them. Mallary's talk will delve into the themes of vulnerability, authenticity, and the importance of finding hope in the ongoing process of recovery.

Your presence and support at this year's gala will help our chapter continue to provide essential education, training, and resources, fostering a community that understands and supports the complexities of eating disorder recovery.
