Life After Diets

Was All-In Recovery As Easy As It Looked? with Stefanie Michele


Listen Later

In this episode, Stefanie revisits the early days of her "all-in" recovery from binge eating and restriction. She shares raw excerpts from personal emails she wrote at the time, capturing the fear, doubt, and body image struggles of letting go of food rules on her 40th birthday.

Stefanie reflects on why this attempt at recovery succeeded when so many earlier ones hadn't, and what it really means to be ready for change.

She also answers a listener question about the most sensible advice clients resist, explaining why nervous system safety and readiness matter more than logic when it comes to eating regularly or buying clothes that fit.

If you've ever wondered what "all-in" looks like from the inside—or why advice can sound simple but feel impossible—this episode will meet you there.
