Have you ever stopped one habit⌠only to find yourself leaning on another? đđťââď¸Maybe you ditched dieting, but now wine oâclock is calling every night. Or you stopped drinking, but suddenly food feels out of control again. This, bestie, is called transfer addiction â and itâs way more common (and normal!) in recovery than you think.In this episode, weâre breaking down:⨠Why transfer addiction happens (hint: itâs not because youâre weak or broken).⨠What red flags to look out for when one coping tool swaps for another.⨠Therapist-backed strategies to build a healthier toolbox and meet your needs without shame.Healing isnât about perfection â itâs about noticing patterns, understanding your nervous system, and learning new ways to care for yourself. Youâre not failing, youâre growing. đ3 Key Takeaways:Transfer addiction is your nervous systemâs way of searching for safety, not a sign of failure.The behaviour matters less than the function itâs serving (numbing, avoiding, soothing).You can replace old coping tools with compassionate, empowering strategies that actually support healing.đ§ Listen now, and if this episode resonates, donât forget to subscribe, rate, and leave a review â it helps so much in spreading this message.Waitlist: https://bingefreebestie.com/waitlist/Masterclass October 9th: https://bingefreebestie.com/masterclass/đ Free Guide: The Emotional Eaterâs Fix: Your first step to understanding why you emotionally eat â and what to do instead đ â Download it hereâ (https://bingefreebestie.com/freebie/)đĽ Join The Break Up: My signature program to stop binge and emotional eating, heal your nervous system, and build body trust â for good.

If you grew up in the 2000s, chances are you remember The Biggest Loser: dramatic weigh-ins, trainers screaming, contestants collapsing on treadmills, and the promise that extreme weight loss meant health and redemption.Now, Netflixâs new documentary Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser pulls back the curtain â and itâs even more harmful than we realised.Hereâs what we unpack today:⨠The shocking behind-the-scenes realities revealed in Fit for TV â from starvation-level diets to life-threatening health risks.⨠The devastating aftermath: why so many contestants regained weight, and why it was never about willpower.⨠The generational impact on millennial viewers (like me and maybe you too) who absorbed its harmful messages alongside our mums, friends, and peers.⨠The anti-diet reframe: why exercise isnât punishment, food isnât the enemy, and your worth was never meant to be weighed on a scale.⨠Links & Resourcesđ Free Guide: The Emotional Eaterâs Fix: Your first step to understanding why you emotionally eat â and what to do instead đ â Download it hereâ đĽ Join The Break Up: My signature program to stop binge and emotional eating, heal your nervous system, and build body trust â for good.

In todayâs episode of the Binge Free Bestie Podcast, weâre tackling one of the most persistent myths out there: that intuitive eating is just an excuse to throw all nutrition out the window and eat whatever you want, whenever you want. Let me be super clear- thatâs just diet culture talking. So, if youâve ever worried that giving yourself unconditional permission to eat means youâre doomed to eat pizza for every meal forever, this episode is for you.Weâre breaking this down piece by piece - starting with why diet culture is so terrified of intuitive eating. Spoiler alert: itâs because intuitive eating takes away their power and puts it back in your hands. No more selling you shame or quick fixes that never stick. No more getting stuck in the endless cycle of restriction and bingeing.Weâll also chat about what unconditional permission to eat actually means (hint: itâs not about ignoring your bodyâs needs). Instead, itâs about tuning in, getting curious, and rebuilding trust with yourself. Itâs about discovering what feels good for you â physically, emotionally, and spiritually â without guilt or fear.By the end of this episode, youâll know exactly how to tune out the diet culture noise and start listening to your own bodyâs wisdom. Because intuitive eating isnât about âgiving upâ â itâs about finally living.Ready to dive deeper?

Youâve been told itâs all about willpowerâthat if you just tried harder, youâd finally stop the binge eating cycles. But⌠letâs be real: howâs that been working out for you?In this powerful episode of the Binge Free Bestie Podcast, Iâm flipping the script on everything you thought you knew about binge eating recovery. Spoiler alert: itâs not about being âstrong enoughâ to say no to chips or ice cream. Itâs about understanding whatâs driving those urges in the first place.Hereâs the deal: binge eating is a response, not a personal failing. Itâs a reaction to deprivation, emotional overwhelm, and diet culture nonsenseâNOT a lack of willpower. So if youâve been stuck in the cycle of shame, thinking youâre âjust not disciplined enough,â let this episode be your permission slip to stop the self-blame.Weâll unpack:Why willpower is a finite resource (and how diet culture exploits this truth!)How restriction, âoff-limitsâ foods, and ignoring your hunger cues mess with your biology (and how to stop the cycle)The missing link: emotional regulationâwhy feelings, not food, are driving your bingesMost importantly, Iâll walk you through what does workânourishment, permission, and emotional regulation. Because binge eating isnât about controlling yourself moreâitâs about healing the real reasons underneath.Ready to start listening to your body instead of diet culture? Letâs do it together.Remember: youâre not broken. Youâre human. Letâs rebuild trust in your body and mind together.⨠Links & Resourcesđ Free Guide: The Emotional Eaterâs Fix: Your first step to understanding why you emotionally eat â and what to do instead đ â Download it hereâ đĽ Join The Break Up: My signature program to stop binge and emotional eating, heal your nervous system, and build body trust â for good.
