Shannon Cutts is the author of Beating Ana: How to Outsmart Your Eating Disorder and
Take Your Life Back, the first book to address the importance of adding a recovered person, or mentor, to the treatment team. She is also a college circuit speaker who has traveled the country presenting her popular campus program, Beauty Undressed.
Currently Shannon serves as Executive Director for MentorCONNECT: Where Relationships Replace Eating Disorders. MentorCONNECT is the first global eating disorders mentoring community and a pending 501 c-3 nonprofit corporation. MentorCONNECT is a proud member of the NEDA Network and the Eating Disorders Coalition.
A Billboard World Song Contest First Place winner, she is the producer of the companion CD for You Are Not Alone, Vol. 2: The Book of Companionship for Women with Eating Disorders. Shannon is a survivor of a fifteen-year battle with anorexia and bulimia and a contributing writer for Gurze Books, the Huffington Post, and others. Her work has recently been featured in Glamour and Woman’s Day.
Shannon is very fond of coffee (all varieties, all flavors), betta fish (as pets not app
etizers), and anything at all having to do with her favorite musician, STING. She is also the proud mommy to a precocious (and very pretty) grey bird named Pearl.
