Dusting off the shame & knowing your wor...

Georgie Fear and the Confident Eaters Team
About this episode

This week, we are excited to share a Client interview from our 1:1 coaching program. Join Coach Christina and her former client, Maddie, as they discuss her journey of overcoming the binge and restrict cycle and developing food freedom.

We all have different challenges, backgrounds, habits, and lifestyles. Maddie shares her story as someone who loves to challenge herself physically, eat healthful meals, and support herself emotionally and spiritually.

But she was struggling! She was going through a lot of change and went back to some old habits of binge eating. "I thought I was past all of this!", she thought, and like so many other people, she hid in shame, trying to figure out on her own for a while. 

Maddie was once in your shoes, looking for a solution to her binge eating and found this podcast. In listening some more, she realized that she could use the support of a coach to overcome her challenges. 

We covered a lot of topics, including:

  • Why Maddie reached out in the first place and what made the Confident Eating approach different then things she had tried in the past.
  • What Maddie's biggest challenges were before our work together and the obstacles she has overcome since. 
  • What it means to do the inner work of self discovery and dusting off the shame to overcome long held habits and beliefs around food and body image. 

Thanks to Maddie for being our guest on this week's episode and sharing her valuable experience!
