In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast, Mary breaks down one of the most misunderstood parts of recovery: transfer addiction, when you stop one coping behavior, only to find yourself picking up another.

If you’ve ever quit binge eating only to start nightly wine…

Or stopped drinking but suddenly can’t stop snacking…

Or overly restricted food and found yourself scrolling, shopping, or staying “busy” to avoid feelings…

You’re not failing. You’re experiencing a nervous system still searching for safety.

Mary explains why transfer addiction happens, how it shows up in food addiction recovery, and what your brain is actually trying to protect you from. You’ll learn the signs of transfer addiction, how to recognize when a “new” habit is really an emotional coping strategy, and what to do to break the cycle for good.

This episode gives you practical tools to support your nervous system, regulate emotions without numbing, and build real food sobriety without swapping one addiction for another.

If you’re healing binge eating, emotional eating, compulsive behaviors, or any form of food addiction, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on and how to move forward with clarity and compassion.
