JOIN THE REWIRED IN ACTION COMMUNITY: www.rewiredinaction.com/Following Safia’s story, today, Meg shares her recovery experience — where her ED started, how things developed over the years, and what happened as she moved through different stages of treatment.It wasn’t a straightforward timeline (recovery timelines rarely are!). There were periods of getting better, moving countries, starting again and relapsing. We also explore the moment when Meg realised that looking healthier and eating in a certain way didn’t necessarily mean she was recovered, and how working with someone who understood eating disorders helped her recognise the rules that were still running her life.Topics covered:How Meg’s eating disorder beganEarly treatment and hospitalisationMoving abroad and changes in recoveryRelapse and returning to old patternsThe difference between looking better and being recoveredHidden rules Finding specialised eating disorder supportThe point when recovery started to feel differentFor more information or to join the Rewired Community: www.rewiredinaction.com/Connect with us:MegInstagram: @megsy_recoveryYouTube: Megsy RecoveryTikTok: megsy recoverySafiaInstagram: @safia_edrecoverycoachEmail: [email protected]: www.safiaed.comEm (copywriter & editor)Instagram: @em_schoneTallulah Self (podcast editor)Instagram: @tallulahselfDisclaimerPlease keep in mind we're not medical professionals, and the podcast content reflects our own experiences and opinions, so it shouldn't be taken as medical advice.

JOIN THE REWIRED IN ACTION COMMUNITY: www.rewiredinaction.com/Have you ever been scared of hunger, but also wished you had the cues? In this episode, we get into the strange contradiction of wanting to feel hungry enough before eating, while also spending so much time worrying about hunger itself…We also take a closer look at what happens when we turn sensations into judgements, and why eating doesn’t have to depend on getting those signals “right”. Especially in recovery, hunger can be unpredictable! Sometimes structure is more helpful than waiting to feel ready. You can eat when you’re hungry, when you’re not sure, or even when you still feel a bit full – without needing to work out exactly what your hunger is telling you first.Topics covered:The contradiction of wanting and fearing hungerTrying to achieve the “perfect” amount of hungerBody-scanning and constantly monitoring hungerWhy hunger can become another thing to controlThe difference between a sensation and the judgement attached to itFear of fullness and what it can mean in recoveryEating for reasons beyond hungerWhy hunger and fullness can be unpredictable in recoveryMental hunger and the role of structurePractising eating without perfect conditionsFor more information or to join the Rewired Community: www.rewiredinaction.com/Connect with us:MegInstagram: @megsy_recoveryYouTube: Megsy RecoveryTikTok: megsy recoverySafiaInstagram: @safia_edrecoverycoachEmail: [email protected]: www.safiaed.comEm (copywriter & editor)Instagram: @em_schoneTallulah Self (podcast editor)Instagram: @tallulahselfDisclaimerPlease keep in mind we're not medical professionals, and the podcast content reflects our own experiences and opinions, so it shouldn't be taken as medical advice.

10 Recovery Game-changers: SafiaIn this personal episode, Safia shares ten of the biggest game-changers from her own recovery. Some were practical, like getting rid of scales or buying clothes that fit her changing body. Others were mindset shifts: being more honest with the people around her, outing hidden rules, and staying focused on her own recovery to limit comparison. We also discuss why consistency mattered far more than motivation, along with some of the tools that helped recovery feel doable along the way. With that said, we’re proud to share our upcoming Rewired Workshop: Taking Action, to help you bridge the gap between wanting recovery and putting it into practice day to day.Rewired Workshop: Taking ActionA 60-minute workshop exploring practical tools to help you move from intention to action in your eating disorder recovery.Sign up here: https://buy.stripe.com/fZu4gB2tH2DC902ak057W0qTopics covered: • Opening up to others • Challenging the hidden rules • Staying focused on your own path • Values, regret, and building a life bigger than your ED • Letting go of perfectionism • Creating an environment that supports change • Self-compassion and understanding your body's needs • Navigating body changes • Taking stock of recovery wins along the way • Why consistency matters more than mood or motivationFor more info or to sign up to the Rewired Community: https://rewiredinaction2.carrd.co/Connect with us:Meg Instagram: @megsy_recovery YouTube: Megsy Recovery TikTok: megsy recoverySafia Instagram: @safia_edrecoverycoach Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.safiaed.comEm (copywriter & editor) Instagram: @em_schoneTallulah Self (podcast editor) Instagram: @tallulahself[DISCLAIMER]We’re not medical professionals, and the podcast content reflects our own experiences and opinions.

Orthorexia with Florence GilletFor many people, orthorexia begins with a genuine wish to feel better, improve health, manage symptoms, or solve a problem. But when food rules become rigid and anxiety around eating grows, it can become difficult to see where self-care ends and obsession begins.This week, we’re joined by Florence Gillet, Certified Eating Psychology Coach and founder of Beyond Body Image. Florence shares her personal experience of developing orthorexia after changing her diet to improve her skin, and reflects on how behaviours that appeared healthy from the outside gradually became restrictive and all-consuming. We also explore the overlap between wellness culture and EDs — including the impact of elimination diets — and why rebuilding trust in your body can be the most health-affirming choice of all. Topics covered: * Florence’s background and the work she does today • When self-care becomes rigidity and obsession • Spotting orthorexia red flags • The impact of restriction on hunger, fullness, and social eating • Letting go of food rules during recovery • Restriction in the name of gut health or clear skin • Challenging fears around inflammation, toxins, and "bad" foods • The role of black-and-white thinking in orthorexia • Considerations for healthcare professionalsFor more info or to sign up to the Rewired Community: https://rewiredinaction2.carrd.co/Connect with us:Florence Gillet Instagram: @beyond.bodyimage Website: https://www.beyondbodyimage.com/about/Meg Instagram: @megsy_recovery YouTube: Megsy Recovery TikTok: megsy recoverySafia Instagram: @safia_edrecoverycoach Email: [email protected] Website: https://www.safiaed.comEm (copywriter & editor) Instagram: @em_schoneTallulah Self (podcast editor) Instagram: @tallulahself[DISCLAIMER]We’re not medical professionals, and the podcast content reflects our own experiences and opinions, as well as that of our guests, so it shouldn’t be taken as medical advice.
