I loved this episode. I am really struggling with acceptance about my health and the reality that every time I try restrictive diets that seem to work, I always relapse into bulimia. So I work with an eating disorder trained RD and medical doctors now. I feel like I am having to let go of this idea of “ living my best life” in many ways and this is just one aspect of that. I had this fantasy for so long thanks to media and all sorts of messages I recieved since birth that I am not ok as I am, whoever that is- who even knows anymore? I guess that’s my work, and letting go off false ideas is part of that. Thanks for this great episode!

Thank you for sharing, Paula--you're definitely not alone in struggling with acceptance. That's great that you're working with a team trained in eating disorders, sounds like an important step <3
