This week we talk to Marcus Kain, a nutrition coach and trainer specializing in binge eating recovery. Marcus, who also hosts the Strong Not Starving Podcast, shares with us his own journey into and through an eating disorder. 

Marcus discusses his journey with food and body image issues, tracing back to childhood and the influence of his environment. He highlights the impact of early experiences, including body composition tests during adolescence, which led to a fixation on appearance. His career in the music industry further intensified these issues, with a focus on external validation and strict dieting.

The turning point came when Marcus met his future wife, who challenged his rigid mindset around food. Her perspective, coupled with guidance from a mentor, prompted Marcus to reevaluate his approach. He gradually shifted towards a more flexible and balanced relationship with food, acknowledging the importance of genuine connections and prioritizing overall health.
