About this episode

Why do so many of us feel like we’re not good enough, no matter how hard we try?

In this episode, we tackle a common struggle in anorexia recovery—the feeling of inadequacy. You’ll learn how early conditioning and societal pressures contribute to the belief that you’re not enough, and why overcoming this mindset is key to recovery. Whether you're working through your recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into changing those deeply ingrained beliefs.

  1. Uncover the roots of why so many struggle with feeling "not good enough" and how this affects anorexia recovery.

  2. Explore practical strategies for rewiring negative thought patterns using self-compassion, realistic self-talk, and gratitude.

  3. Learn how to build inner motivation that isn’t tied to society’s unrealistic standards of success, appearance, or achievement.
