• Learning How to Rest in Eating Disorder Recovery

  In today’s episode, we’re talking about something that sounds simple but can feel incredibly hard in eating disorder recovery: learning how to rest. If you’re used to pushing yourself, staying busy, or relying on movement to cope, slowing down can feel unsafe or even “wrong.” I get it, rest was one of the hardest parts for me too.In this episode, we’ll chat about why rest is so important for your physical and emotional recovery, why it feels so uncomfortable at first, and how you can start to build a healthier, kinder relationship with downtime. Rest isn’t laziness. It’s part of healing, and your body needs it just as much as it needs food. Let me know your thoughts!

  In today’s episode, I’m joined by the wonderful Jackie — a trauma-informed therapist and eating disorder recovery specialist who’s also walked her own path of recovery. We dive into how trauma, bullying, and early childhood experiences can shape the way we relate to food, our bodies, and ourselves. Jackie brings such a grounded mix of professional insight and lived experience, and she explains in such a compassionate way how these early wounds can stay alive in our patterns around eating.We talk about what healing actually looks like, why compassion is so central, and how trauma-informed support can help you reconnect with trust, safety, and your true self. Whether your past feels “big” or “small,” this conversation will help you make sense of why your eating disorder developed and how you can move forward with more understanding and hope.//Follow Jackie Soul Therapy:Website: https://www.soul-trainer.co.uk/Instagram: @jackiehardingsoultherapyTikTok: @jackiehardingbmsLet me know your thoughts!

• People Pleasing and Perfectionism in Eating Disorders

  In today’s episode, we’re diving into two traits that show up a lot in eating disorders, people pleasing and perfectionism. If you’ve ever found yourself trying to make everyone happy, or feeling like you need to get everything just right to be good enough, this one’s for you. I’ll talk about how these patterns can feed into disordered eating, where they really come from, and how to start loosening their grip in recovery. We’ll also chat about what it means to find your worth outside of how “perfect” or “easy” you are for others. It’s not about changing who you are — it’s about learning to show up for yourself with the same care you give everyone else.Let me know your thoughts!
