Fly To Freedom: The anorexia recovery podcast

Episode 86: Why Settle for Less? Chris Sandel on Full Recovery and Reclaiming Your Life


Listen Later

Are you wondering if true freedom from an eating disorder is possible? In this episode, I sit down with Chris Sandel, founder of Seven Health, who has dedicated his career to helping people find lasting freedom. Together, we explore why “full recovery” is achievable and what’s really necessary to reach it.

In this epic episode, Chris shares how recovery goes beyond just eating or following rigid rules. We dive into the common traps people fall into—like waiting to feel ready or trying to negotiate with the eating disorder. This episode offers a fresh perspective on building resilience, letting go of control, and finding true self-compassion. It keeps giving, right to the end, so keep listening!

Here’s what you’ll gain:

  1. A clear understanding of why full recovery is possible, no matter where you are right now.
  2. Powerful insights on why taking meaningful action—not just gathering information—is key to recovery.
  3. Practical ways to start building a life beyond the eating disorder, filled with joy and self-trust.
  4. Listen now, and if this resonates, join my email community for daily mantras and a free recovery guide to support your path.
