If you struggle with having food and body image conversations with your partner, this episode is for you. Couples counselor Elizabeth Earnshaw (Liz Listens) joins your hosts today to help unpack food and body image stress and how it can negatively impact relationships. Elizabeth shares insights on mental load, trauma, and flooding, and how these factors can hijack relationships. We also explore how body image issues and differing health philosophies can affect partnerships, highlighting the need for creating boundaries and how to use the tool of coregulation to maintain a healthy relationship.
