Listen to episode 97:
"I had to change my perception about my body and about myself": Rachel
November 20, 2022
In this episode, Rachel talks openly and candidly about her struggles with sugar and food addiction.
She says that sugar had been a problem since childhood, but through her teen years and into her twenties, she didn't recognize that sugar and her disordered eating were problematic.
As a registered nurse and a nutritionist, Rachel was looking for tools to help her clients. And that's where she came across the concept of food addiction and realized that it also applied to her.
Her main issue was sugar. But Rachel used to restrict all kinds of foods, and that feeling of restriction led to her reaching out for chocolate and sweets at the end of the day.
Her recovery process was a challenge for her at first, but with support and community she was able to change her perception of her food, her body and herself.
And now Rachel is helping others in their recovery from food and sugar addiction.
