In this honest, heart-centered conversation, Molly P and Molly C tackle one of the most sensitive and frequently tiptoed-around topics in recovery spaces: weight loss. After receiving an email from a listener asking why they don't speak more directly about it, the Mollys dive in—with nuance, humility, and a whole lot of truth.

Together, they explore:

• The difference between structure and restriction
• How to discern whether a desire to lose weight is rooted in recovery or disordered thinking
• The role of spiritual alignment, shadow work, and trusted counsel
• Why urgency is a red flag
• How diet culture's hamster wheel keeps us chasing "not enoughness"

They share personal experiences, reflect on the trap of perfectionism in recovery, and offer thoughtful questions for listeners to journal about:

• Why is who I am right now not enough?
• What am I hoping weight loss will fix?
• Would I recommend this method to someone I love?

The Mollys don't shy away from the complexities of this issue—especially for those who are earlier in their recovery or navigating significant body changes. Instead, they invite listeners to reflect honestly, act lovingly, and build a sustainable relationship with food and self that feels like home.
