Episode's Key Points:
- Our relationship with food is a window into our unmet needs!
- Instead of trying to avoid vulnerability, try sticking with it. It will help you tap into your own innate wisdom, and help guide you towards what you need to do next.
- It's time to investigate our unmet need. Food can help distract us when we're going through challenging times, but figuring out the unmet need can provide some lasting relief. This strategy is called the Food Decoding Method!
- Chronic illness is a tough experience on everyone, not just the person struggling with the pain. Remember that, and give yourself some compassion.
- Hardship and health conditions are difficult, but they are NOT caused by being in a larger body. There's a relationship between body size and illness, but there's no research out there to prove that being in a larger body leads to ill health. In fact, there are lots of factors, like weight stigma, that aren't even considered in classic weight research.
- Ending a relationship with your therapist is hard, but even going to a few sessions is worth it.
- Explore the option of online therapy providers! Some of my colleagues doing virtual work include Christy Harrison, Erica Leon, and Paige Smathers.
- You don't have to have your shit together. Transitions are messy, and adjustments take time!
