In this week's episode, Barb shares her deeply personal and ongoing 40-year journey with bulimia—an addiction that she has battled for much of her life. She candidly discusses how she has found freedom, healing, and self-love through her recovery process. By opening up about her experience, we hope to provide a space for those struggling with addiction to feel seen and empowered to take steps toward healing.

Quotes mentioned in this episode:

• "The real voyage of discovery consists, not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." - Marcel Proust.
