A bit of a different episode this week - Full of Beans first ever SOLOCAST!

Join me as I take a deep dive into the past year and reflect on how recovery has gone this year, the things that have helped, and my thoughts for others.

This week, I discuss:

• Reflections on recovery and how this progressed in 2024.
• Why recovery felt different this time.
• The impact of an eating disorder on my friendships.
• The impact of a neurodivergent diagnosis on my recovery.
• The reality of recovery burnout.
• Understanding the difference between what you want and what your eating disorder wants.
• The importance of reminding yourself of the impact the eating disorder had on you to motivate you in recovery.
• The impact of an eating disorder on my relationship and how I changed this.
