Episode: Shame & Binge Eating with Kyira Wackett
In this solo episode, Kyira shares her own story and lived experience with binge eating, breaking down the myths, stigma, and shame that so often accompany it. Rather than centering food itself, this conversation unpacks the emotional drivers beneath disordered eating behaviors—especially the role of shame, secrecy, and self-punishment. Kyira walks through how she learned to bring curiosity and compassion to the table, transforming the narrative from one of control and chaos to one of understanding and care.
Whether you struggle with binge eating or have internalized messages about food and body that leave you feeling disconnected or ashamed, this episode is a grounding and validating listen.
