NEW BOOK OUT NOW: I Ate My Vanishing Twin! •

Hi, I’m Laura Purnell, Ph.D., ACHT, also known as the Educational Alchemist.

My new book: I Ate My Vanishing Twin! Trauma, Spirituality, and Hunger: Making Peace with Food has just been released!

Curious about Vanishing Twin Syndrome? VTS is a condition where one of the fetuses in a multiple pregnancy stops developing and is absorbed by the other fetus, the placenta, or the mother’s body.
In my new book, I explore the impact of traumatic events in my life, such as the passing of my twin, on my experiences of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and challenges with disordered eating.

Readers are saying: Heart wrenching and hilarious. Powerful and deeply human. A must read for anyone struggling with addictions of any sort.

She is a turbine with a power-point presentation and real-life stories, unhesitatingly facing race relations, cultural-blindness, white privilege/fragility, inequitable outcomes, and our responsibility for developing cultural competence and taking action in a complex and waking world.”
