It can feel confusing, frustrating, even shameful. Listen to the full episode for the full unpacking and for the practical steps that can help you finally feel at peace when the night comes.

2025-10-2819 minUnderstanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image HealingWhat Does Treatment for an Eating Disorder Actually Look Like?When it comes to eating disorder treatment, one of the biggest questions people have is simple: What does it actually look like? The reality is that there's no single answer. Every person's story with food, body image, and recovery is unique, which means treatment has to be flexible, supportive, and tailored to the individual. Still, there are common building blocks that show up again and again, and understanding them can make the process feel a little less overwhelming. The number one goal is eating disorder symptom reduction. That means consistent and adequate nourishment as the first and...

Is This An Eating Disorder or Disordered Eating?Have you ever wondered where the line really is between disordered eating and a true eating disorder? It's not always as clear as we'd like to think. In fact, so much of what we consider "normal" in diet culture—tracking every bite, stressing over body image, or skipping meals in the name of health—can feel harmless at first… until it slowly starts taking over more and more of your life. If you've ever asked yourself, "Is this just disordered eating, or is it something more?", this conversation is for you. Tweetable Quotes "You do...

Why do we do this? How does it backfire every time? And more importantly, how do we break free? Tweetable Quotes "You can't just ignore your needs and wants forever. That's when this moment of lapse of judgment, the binge, whether it's money, food, sex, anything under the sun, comes in." - Rachelle Heinemann "Food is inherently soothing." - Rachelle Heinemann "Ho...

But for a lot of us, it's… complicated. Maybe you feel like you have to move or else your anxiety will skyrocket. Maybe you mentally calculate every bite of food and match it with a "required" workout. Or maybe you find yourself hitting the gym even when you're sick, exhausted, or, oh—I don't know—literally injured. Sound familiar?

They even sometimes like to use fancy words like "co-ocurring." Then they talk about how OCD can explain the development of ED symptoms and sit back triumphantly as if they've solved the world's toughest rubik's cube. Satisfying, right? Meh, not really.. We're setting the record straight and peeling back the layers on this so-called "connection" between eating disorders and OCD.

So, let's talk about it. Tweetable Quotes "There's something particularly scary about being supported by someone who is really struggling." - Rachelle Heinemann "The moral of the story is to be the best clinician you can and try to keep your client's needs fo...
2025-03-0453 minUnderstanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image HealingEating Disorders and ControlIf you've ever talked about eating disorders for more than five seconds, someone always drops the classic line: "It's not about the food; it's about control." Boom. Case closed, right? Well, not exactly. Because what does that even mean? Control over what? Your body? Your feelings? Your life? And why does control even matter so much? That's where things get interesting. So today, we're getting into it. Not in some vague, theoretical, "let's throw around big words" way, but in a way that actually helps us understand what's happening—whether in our own relationships with fo...

Have you ever felt like you're just one awkward social interaction away from a full-blown identity crisis? Like, one unanswered text, one awkward pause in a conversation, or one unliked Instagram post, and suddenly you're spiraling into, "Does anyone even like me?" Well, welcome to the club—it's a big one. In this episode, I'm talking about self-esteem: what it really is, why so many of us struggle with it, and how it connects to our relationship with food and body image.

So let's talk about it. This week, we're diving into why eating disorders are way more complex than the labels we slap on them—and why real recovery requires thinking outside the diagnosis. Tweetable Quotes "It is impossible to focus on just symptom reduction and not the bigger picture of all the other things that contribute to someone's eating disorder." - Rachelle Heinemann "The second someone's relationship with food or really anything ou...

2025-01-2821 minUnderstanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image HealingWhat People Got Incredibly Wrong About Eating DisordersThe media often portrays eating disorders as affecting ultra-thin, hospital-bed-bound college girls. While this happens, it's not the majority of what we mean when we say someone struggles with an "eating disorder." In this episode, I'm talking about how the media's (and beyond) portrayal is not only wildly inaccurate but also dangerously misleading. That "sick enough" myth? It's real. And let's be honest, it's all kinds of messed up. I'm unraveling the reason why those 19-year-old, emaciated models aren't the majority, and how most people don't fit neatly into a category.

2025-01-0714 minUnderstanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image HealingThe Secret Sauce for Building Confidence: Part 1In this episode, I'm diving into what actually builds confidence: relationships. Real ones. Consistent, validating, non-judgy, "I-got-you" type of relationship. The kind that reminds you you're worthy, even when you're sporting your least flattering sweatpants. Confidence isn't flashy or loud. Sometimes, the most confident person in the room is the quiet one. (Let that one marinate.) Tweetable Quotes "Confidence is complex, and it is impossible to give a list of things to do in order to build confidence." - Rachelle Heinemann "It takes a lot of risk and a lot of...

So why does poor body image seem to be the last clingy guest at the recovery party, the one who refuses to take a hint and just leave? Sure, changing your body might give you a short-term confidence boost, but once that "ideal" inevitably slips away, so does that fragile confidence. Turns out, there's no quick fix here. Instead, there's a long road to unpacking why we've all bought into the lie that self-worth and body size go hand in hand. ...

In this episode, I'm unpacking the intricacies of anxiety around social situations, recovery, and all those delightful emotions we tend to shove down deep.

Now that I've got your attention, let me back up. We've all been there—so consumed by "what will they think?" that we lose sight of what we think. But if there is one thing I've learned, it's that trying to please everyone just makes you boring. Tweetable Quotes "It's not necessarily about caring less because there's no magic in that. It's how do we care just as much, but then make decisions based on what we need, our values." - Rachelle Heinemann "For tho...

Or maybe, the team thing is kind of ridiculous. When it comes to nutrition, it often feels like we're stuck between two opposing camps: those who are all about strict diets and scientific nutrition, and those who advocate for intuitive eating. It's like there's an invisible line, and folks tend to stick to their side, often mocking the other without really engaging in meaningful dialogue. But reality isn't that black and white.

Yep, you read that right. Recently, the Washington Post put out an article, and it's stirring the pot on a topic close to my heart: the Anti-Diet movement. So let's stir the pot on this article. Basically, the gist of the article is that big food companies, like General Mills, are teaming up with anti-diet dieticians to promote what they call "junk food" while discouraging weight loss efforts. Sounds sketchy, right? But here's the thing: this article is missing some crucial nuance. ...

Postpartum is raw. There is so much more to a person's fertility journey than just pregnancy.

As a mother myself, I've experienced firsthand the pressures of bounce-back culture. It's everywhere - from social media ads to casual conversations. The expectation to quickly return to your pre-pregnancy body after carrying a human for 40 weeks and giving birth is, quite frankly, absurd. In this episode...

Crazier things have never been said. Here's the thing, eating disorders don't have a look. It's a myth that eating disorders are typically portrayed by a "skinny" individual. But the reality is far from that stereotype. Eating disorders can affect anyone, regardless of their outward appearance. They don't discriminate based on size, shape, or weight.

I'm not a huge fan of New Year's resolutions. I get that there's this idea of a "new year, new me". There's almost like a fantasy of having a clean slate, when in reality, it's just another day, in a new year. However, it could be a great time to reflect on the past year and embrace what was. So, here's the deal. If you're into New Year's resolutions, go ahead and set realistic, measurable, and slightly challenging goals for yourself. If you're not, then no big deal! ...

What comes to mind when you hear the term "body positivity"? First off, it's become a mainstream concept. Body neutrality, all foods fit, and body positivity are all terms to describe a phase of coming to terms with your body.

It's clear that we're often pressured to make snap judgments and rely on one-size-fits-all solutions. However, life rarely follows directions.

2022-11-2913 minUnderstanding Disordered Eating: Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image HealingIs It All About Control?You've probably heard it said: "Eating disorders are a way to maintain control." The connection between control and eating disorders is a phenomenon people talk about all the time. It's not untrue, but honestly, I'm not the biggest fan of it. Here's why.

What does control actually mean, and in what ways do eating disorders help maintain control? To me...
