Fly To Freedom: The anorexia recovery podcast

Episode 72 - Exercise, Weight gain and being authentically you with Julia & Victoria


Listen Later

Get ready for an inspiring, insightful, and downright entertaining podcast episode with Julia Trehane and her bestie Victoria Kleinsman! These two eating disorder recovery coaches and all-around awesome humans dive deep into answering questions from listeners on all things recovery. 


Right off the bat, Julia and Victoria share the major turning points that catalysed their own recovery journeys. For Victoria, it was realising that all her beliefs about things like weight gain were just made-up stories she could rewrite. Julia’s aha moment was understanding that self-compassion is where it's at.


From there, they cover so much juicy ground - dealing with guilt after eating fear foods (Victoria’s strategy of feeling it fully and questioning if you actually did anything wrong is gold), getting unstuck from quasi-recovery, accepting your body's natural set point, and exercising in recovery without obsession. They get real about the fear of weight gain, even for those later in life.


Julia and Victoria's advice is equal parts practical and profound. You'll hear creative tips like writing down the eating disorder's script after eating a fear food to defuse its power. But you'll also be inspired by their wisdom on trusting your body, being present with discomfort, and focusing on true freedom over body size. 


What makes this episode such a treat is the authentic rapport between these two friends. They riff off each other seamlessly, sharing unfiltered insights from their own recovery experiences. You'll be nodding along one minute and laughing out loud the next at their light-hearted banter (like Victoria having a mini-meltdown thinking they forgot to record!).


By the end, you'll be fired up to approach your recovery from a place of self-compassion, curiosity about your body's wisdom, and a willingness to feel all the feels that arise. Julia and Victoria make the tough stuff feel a little easier with their warm support and been-there wisdom. Get ready to be inspired!
