In today’s very special episode, I am joined by my new friend, the amazing, Molly Carmel. Molly is an addictions and eating disorder therapist, author of ‘Breaking Up with Sugar,’ and host of the podcast ‘What You’re Craving.’ We talk about the complicated relationship we have with food, the toxic impact diet culture has on that relationship, recovering from food addiction and disordered eating, and how we can learn to love and appreciate our bodies. Molly details her own journey overcoming disordered eating and addiction, her experience breaking up with sugar, and the ongoing road to recovery.

 

“The harder the choice, the better the outcome.”
