About this episode

If you've been listening to the podcast for awhile, you've heard me talk about allowing discomfort. This is one of the most challenging things for people who binge to do and sometimes they get a bit confused about what discomfort they're allowing.

In today's episode, I'm talking about uncomfortable thoughts and what is uncomfortable about them. You might not be so sure about what exactly is the discomfort you're going to allow and today you're going to find out.
