Welcome back my loves! 💜 In this episode, Julia and I are diving into your brilliant questions about recovery. This is raw, real, emotional, funny and deep — basically, all the things we are!
We chat about:
What moment I’d relive without my eating disorder
Healing mother/daughter codependency while both recovering
Feeling guilty for resting (and why that’s actually a GOOD thing)
Why gaining weight feels unsafe — and how I rewired that fear myself
Sensory overload in a changing body (and what helped me cope)
How to stop obsessive movement and exercise guilt
Whether it’s realistic to go all-in after 30+ years of an ED
Making peace with the lies I told during my eating disorder
And why life WITHOUT an ED is the real life you deserve
This conversation is packed with tough love, heart, deep truth and so much encouragement.
Healing is messy. Healing is brave. Healing is YOURS. Let’s do it together.
