Episode 100: Double Love – Q&A with Julia & Victoria

🎉 Celebrating 100 episodes! 🎉

This episode is a special one! Today I'm joined by my dear friend Victoria for a powerful, honest, and deeply supportive Q&A session. Together, we reflect on how far we've come—both in recovery and in life—and answer your burning questions about eating disorder recovery, fear, self-love, relationships, and more.

In this episode, we discuss:
💬 How Julia overcame the fear of starting her podcast – and why fear doesn’t have to hold you back.
💪 How recovery changes your perspective on discomfort and growth.
🏋️‍♀️ The journey to healing an exercise obsession and learning to enjoy movement for the right reasons.
💖 How motherhood shifts self-love and the balance between putting yourself first while caring for others.
🍰 Why all foods—including so-called “junk” foods—are essential in recovery.
🙌 Real, raw experiences from early recovery: exhaustion, fear, food challenges, and overcoming them.
🚫 How to stop caring what others think about weight gain and why true freedom comes from within.
💭 How to handle guilty thoughts after eating and silence the eating disorder bully voice.
🛑 Why rest is essential—and how to break through the mental barriers stopping you from slowing down.

Plus:
✔️ The best part of recovery (hint: it's so much more than just food freedom).
✔️ Why true self-acceptance changes everything—including the friendships and love you allow into your life.
✔️ A special message of hope for anyone struggling.
