Welcome back, my loves! This week’s episode is a juicy one – it’s our monthly Q&A where Julia and I dive deep into your most vulnerable, heartfelt, and relatable questions. From how to give yourself permission to let go of the ED when you’re scared of judgment, to navigating free time, motherhood, and movement post-recovery… we cover it all.


You’ll hear our personal experiences, client reflections, and direct, loving guidance – with a few laughs and tangents along the way (because would it even be a podcast with us if there weren’t?!).


In this episode, we cover:

🌀 What to do when you’re scared of being judged if your body changes

🌀 Reframing “rebellion” from recovery

🌀 How we approach exercise now (and how it’s evolved!)

🌀 The fear of weight gain and how I faced it

🌀 Recovery and motherhood – how your child can become your biggest why

🌀 DBT vs CBT and how coaching is different

🌀 Do I have food rules? How to tell when they’re sneaky

🌀 Pre-meal affirmations, reminders, and tools to help you follow through

🌀 Whether or not to eat more after exercise

🌀 Free time guilt & how to lean into pleasure


This episode is full of gold, whether you’re at the very start of your journey or years into recovery. These questions are so universal, and there’s something here for everyone.
