Asking for Permission to Eat and Other Reassurance-Seeking Behaviours
Hey my loves! Happy New Year and welcome to series 3 of the Recover to Flourish podcast.In this episode, we’re exploring the common behaviour of seeking permission to eat and other reassurance-seeking habits that often show up in eating disorder recovery. As an eating disorder coach, I know how challenging it can feel to trust yourself and your body when you’ve spent so much time relying on external validation. I’ll share my personal experiences and offer practical tips to help you break free from these behaviours, so you can learn to trust your own hunger and fullness cues. Whether you’re navigating this in your own recovery or supporting someone else, I hope this episode provides you with the tools and encouragement to embrace food freedom.
