Behind The Binge

Your body has an amazing ability to tell you exactly what it needs, but diet culture has broken that trust, leading to feeling out of control with food. If you know there must be more to life than this war with your body, you're in the right place!

New episodes of Behind The Binge Podcast every Monday and Friday!

Season 1 Episode 13. Hiiii ya'll! Today's episode I have Mimi from @the.lovelybecoming on instagram to talk about OCD and eating disorders.

Mimi is a graduate student currently pursuing her Master's degree in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling. She has worked as a resident patient associate in various levels of care for individuals with eating disorders and uses both her lived experience and academic knowledge to share about eating disorders and OCD.

Season 1 Episode 12. Content Warning: This episode contains conversations around sexual abuse, disordered eating behaviors, and fatphobia.

Hi All! Today we have past client Anayansi here to inspire you all with her story! Anayansi was involved in my group coaching program back in October of 2020. When she came to me she really felt like nothing would work and she would be stuck with a disordered relationship with food for the rest of her life. She wondered, "what if I am the exception and this doesn't work for me?". Luckily, Anayansi committed to the process and now lives a life free from her war with food and her body. Get ready to be inspired!

Season 1 Episode 11. Hiiii ya'll! Today's episode is something I base the foundation of the Behind The Binge Method on. If we do not address our thought patterns, we CANNOT change our behaviors.

Season 1 Episode 9. Hi all. So often with clients I talk about breaking away from this idea that health is black and white, but it's also just as important to realize that becoming an intuitive eater and healing from binge eating is not black or white either! Let's chat about moving more into the grey to live our most healthful life!

Season 1 Episode 8. On today's episode, we chat with Amanda White, licensed therapist and the creator of the popular Instagram account and Tiktok @therapyforwomen, about the intersection of substance use and eating disorder recovery. The use of substances, specifically alcohol and marijuana, comes up quite frequently in my coaching with clients who struggle with binge eating. I loved this conversation with Amanda to talk more about the nuances of recovery when substances may be triggering episodes of binge eating. 

Amanda is in recovery from an addiction and eating disorder and in her clinical work, Amanda specializes in supporting clients in the overlap and intersection of both.  She is the founder of "Therapy for Women Center" located in Philadelphia and serving clients across the country.

Season 1 Episode 7. Hi all. I didn't have any topics or guests scheduled for this week so I thought why not chat about what's going on this week for me --My period!! If you're a person who gets a period and have ever wondered, "why do I get cravings when I'm on my period" or "why do I eat more when I'm on my period" this one's for you!  Short, sweet, and to the point so I could get back to eating my cookie butter ;)

Season 1 Episode 6. Hi all! Today we are talking about the problem with before and after photos (yes, even when embracing a bigger body). This is something I didn't even realize until this year. For years, I was trying to inspire others with my recovery story using before and afters to showcase how much happier I am even having gained weight. However, the story doesn't always look to same to everyone, and it's especially wrong of me to do being in a straight-sized body in both the before and after. We live and we learn, so that's why I especially wanted to bring on Bethany Konaszczuk to talk about this topic. On Instagram, she showcased briefly why it's unnecessary to post before and afters, so we wanted to dive in deeper today!
