Ep 122 From Binge Eating Disorder to Body Positive Children's author - how to find the courage to heal in the midst of darkness with Alyssa Goldwater
In this episode, Rachel is joined by Jewish influencer, Alyssa Goldwater, who shares her journey from a diet-centered childhood that eventually led to being diagnosed with binge eating disorder - and how she healed to find food + body peace, and how she is now fighting diet culture with her platform and voice.
In this episode, we cover:
- How Alyssa's childhood shaped her negative body image, even if it was from well-meaning family members
- What helped her set boundaries with people she loved
- Her reaction to getting diagnosed with Binge Eating Disorder and the moment she realized she needed help
- Her fears about her body size and how she worked through them
- Why she didn't believe what her support team told her at first and what changed her mind
- What gave her the courage to let go of dieting and choose to heal
- How her darkest moments have been transformed into light
- How and why she's reclaiming the word 'fat'
- Alyssa shares the day to day freedoms she gets to experience as a result of healing and why its worth it
