1- Control

Stefani Reinold, MD, MPH, Board Certified Psychiatrist
About this episode

Do you feel the strong desire to control your food? Would you describe yourself as a bit of a "control freak?" Don't worry, I'm a recovered control freak myself, and I know that control is THE BIGGEST issue behind our food and body image issues.

Let's break down Control so that it makes total sense for you!

In this ep, you'll hear:

  • The various dimensions of control and how to interpret your own unique variation of control
  • Why control around food is a symbol for something much deeper
  • AND how to figure out what that "deeper issue" is
  • How to feed that desire for control WITHOUT controlling your body
  • and more!
