In this episode, I explore how food can become your best friend and primary turn-to, when you have an eating disorder. I consider how this can be a substitute for healthy relationships with other humans and how to begin to foster more positive connections with others. I hope that you find it helpful.

Have you ever reached for food when you were stressed, lonely, or overwhelmed, only to feel guilty afterward? In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, Dr. Marianne Miller, LMFT, explores the guilt so many people carry around emotional eating and why that guilt does more harm than the eating itself. She shares how comfort eating has always been a part of human connection, memory, and regulation, and why diet culture has twisted it into something we're told to feel ashamed of. CONTENT CAUTION This episode includes discussion of emotional eating, guilt, diet culture messages, and eating disorder recovery. Please take care while listening and step away if you need to. WHAT'S IN THIS PODCAST EPISODE ON EMOTIONAL EATING Dr. Marianne discusses what she's noticed while eavesdropping at restaurants when people turn down dessert by saying they “don't want to be bad.” This everyday example highlights how morality gets tangled up with food, especially with foods that often bring us joy and comfort. Instead of labeling emotional eating as wrong, Dr. Marianne reframes it as information about what we need in the moment. Listeners will learn practical strategies for releasing guilt, including naming emotions before and after eating, shifting language around food choices, and building a toolkit of regulation strategies that includes but isn't limited to food. Dr. Marianne also speaks directly to neurodivergent listeners, offering sensory-based and executive functioning supports like low-lift eating, grounding practices, and compassion for how food can play an important role in daily self-care. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt stuck in the cycle of eating for comfort, feeling guilty, and then eating again to soothe that guilt. Dr. Marianne offers a liberation-based perspective, showing how every act of compassion toward yourself is also resistance to diet culture, fatphobia, and ableism. If emotional eating has ever left you feeling guilty, this conversation will help you release shame and see food as a source of connection, care, and freedom.

She lost a significant amount of weight in a short time and received compliments from many people in her life about how good and skinny she looked, especially from her ex-boyfriend (who was often highly critical of her body). Sarah developed an eating disorder as a result of trying to keep off the weight she lost while sick.Some major topics discussed:signs & symptoms of eating disordersthe way women struggle with comparing their bodies to others & trying to keep their partners happythe mind/body connection and how if one is struggling, both are strugglingthe struggle to articulate mental health disordershow the gym allowed her to rebuild a healthy relationship with food
Our warm fireside learnings are with the inspiring Betsy Thurston.Betsy is a registered dietitian and a health coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and an eating disorder clinician. She has a master's degree in nutrition and has a podcast called Binge Dieting. She sees people privately over zoom and also has an online class. Her work is more behavioral than food-related even though she is a dietitian. She uses the model of Internal Family Systems therapy among other practices, such as intuitive eating. However, she believes bulimia and anorexia are not bad. They are coping mechanisms. They are held inside of PARTS in us that are trying to help us. This means that we need to get to know these parts in a new way, without fear and without wishing they weren't there. ****************** ANNOUNCEMENTS ********************Kate's book is out now on Amazon. “Anxiety Hacks” Proven Techniques, Tools and Tips to Calmness In this conversational and life-changing book, anxiety psychotherapist Kate Hudson-Hall will teach you step by step the techniques, tools, and tips taught to thousands of her anxiety clients.

In eating disorder recovery, you'll be searching for the latest mindset hack or magic technique to miraculously propel you out of food obsession and into the land of peaceful eating. You're absorbing YouTube recovery content like it's a full-time job and following the progress of inspiring recovery warriors on socials. You might watch ‘What I Eat in a Day Content' on repeat, in a search of the perfect meal plan, so that your body can recover in the ‘right way'. The ideal recovery fantasy is a thing! Perhaps you are fixated on healthy eating, bordering on orthorexia whilst searching for the plan that will transport you to recovery land, without having to embark on embracing your forbidden foods or anything that could contaminate your system. Sometimes you can search for every possible solution without returning to some of the basic and fundamental recovery practices. You're metaphorically rearranging the skidding deckchairs on the sinking Titanic, rather than addressing the core issue that's sinking you deeper into the sea. It is the boring and unsexy work of regular eating in eating disorder recovery. In this episode, I explore the importance of regular eating and how to practically put it into practice.

Send us a text! (add your email to get a response)Do you have a family member, friend or roommate whose relationship to food is a little...concerning? Eating disorders hide in plain sight, often disguised as diet culture, fitness goals, or "healthy eating." But beneath these socially acceptable lifestyles lie deadly mental health conditions that claim more lives than almost any other psychiatric disorder.In this episode, we break down the clinical realities of various eating disorders while exploring the profound ways they impact both individuals and their loved ones. We examine anorexia's deadly grip and how it combines food restriction with a distorted body image so powerful that even severely underweight individuals see themselves as fat. The disorder's perfectionism and need for control create a psychological prison that's hard to escape.We discuss bulimia's binge-purge cycle, where out-of-control eating episodes are followed by compensatory behaviors like vomiting or excessive exercise. We also discuss binge eating disorder and the lesser-known ARFID, which involves food restriction based on sensory issues rather than weight concerns.As you probably already know, these disorders can be incredibly hard on the family dynamic. Eating disorders transform dinner tables into battlegrounds and marriages into war zones. We cover strategies for supporting loved ones without enabling disordered behaviors, emphasizing the importance of family therapy and creating an environment that de-emphasizes weight and appearance.Whether you're worried about someone you love or seeking to understand these complex conditions better, check out KulaMind to get support and community around loving someone with eating disorders.

What happens when perfectionism, academic pressure, and athletics collide with body image struggles? In this powerful episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, I sit down with Dr. Amanda Marie, a psychologist, educator, and mental health advocate who shares her story of battling bulimia throughout her teen years, college, and into her PhD program. Amanda opens up about how her eating disorder began at 15, fueled by a drive for perfect grades, external validation, and the pressure to perform. She talks about how restriction, bingeing, and purging shaped her daily life and how she balanced secrecy, martial arts training, and academic achievement while silently struggling. We explore: How perfectionism and self-worth tied to grades, sports, and appearance can feed into disordered eating The hidden toll bulimia took on Amanda's body, mind, and relationships How academia and high-achieving environments can intensify eating disorders The turning point that inspired Amanda to pursue recovery after years of secrecy and shame The importance of support systems, therapy, and using determination as a strength in healing What Amanda would say to her 15-year-old self and to anyone listening who feels stuck in their eating disorder Amanda's story is one of survival and transformation. She explains how she reclaimed her grit and perseverance, once tied to her eating disorder, and redirected them toward recovery, authenticity, and compassion.

If eating disorder recovery was just an easy-peasy walk in the woods, picking bluebells and skipping along beautifully curated paths, then you probably wouldn't be listening to this. Although recovery can lead to some spectacular destinations and a whole bucket of inner peace, the initial routes are often bumpy and tangled with weeds and rocks blocking the way. It can feel frankly quite terrifying. This is not to put you off embarking or continuing along the road. In fact, it is to support you in honesty and reality, and to empower you to keep on going. In this episode, I explore 5 bitter truths about eating disorder recovery. I hope that you find it helpful.

Kirsten reveals how her early struggles were shaped by inadequate treatment, provider misconceptions, and the absence of neurodivergent-affirming approaches, especially before her ADHD diagnosis at age 30. Kirsten describes the turning point that came when she became pregnant with her son, which motivated her to pursue lasting recovery. She discusses her imperfect but determined healing process, her career change from business to nursing, and her passion for treating eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders.

Ruby shares her story of her journey with Anorexia. With how it has been her safe place, what parents and carers need to understand about how to best support their loved ones, and why it is so difficult to break free.Lynn, and other parents of children with eating disorders, commenced a local support group for parents and carers in 2015. Two years later, a national, not-for-profit, volunteer, carer-to carer peer support organization, Eating Disorders Families Australia (EDFA) was formed.

Have you ever wondered why binge eating can suddenly begin or return in your 30s, 40s, or 50s, even if you thought you had moved past it? In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, Dr. Marianne Miller explores why binge eating often emerges or resurfaces during midlife and why this experience is far more common than most people realize. She unpacks the combustive mix of hormonal changes, long-term dieting, stress, trauma, cultural pressures about aging, and neurodivergence that collide during this stage of life. You will learn why midlife binge eating is not about willpower or lack of discipline but about unmet needs in the body and nervous system. Dr. Marianne also offers practical steps for interrupting the binge-restrict cycle, cultivating nervous system regulation, and reclaiming a compassionate relationship with food.

Send us a textThis episode invites my special guest, Mallary Tenore Tarpley, who is a Journalism Professor at the University of Texas at Austin and Author of the memoir Slip: Life in the Middle of Eating Disorder Recovery.Mallary became anorexic after the death of her mother when she was twelve shortly after her mother passed away from breast cancer. She didn't know how to deal with her mother's passing. She showed a strong front facade, however inside she felt her whole life was crumbling the longer she went on the further away she felt from her mom. Somehow she felt that if she stayed the same size as when her mother left her she would be closer to her mother and small and safe.This is a very interesting view of exactly what Mallary speaks to - Life in the middle of Eating Disorder Recovery. I love how she speaks about changing a slip from a slide and building where there is a place where slips will follow, however recovery is possible but does not have to be perfect.It is through treatment and her writing that Mallary found the origin of her eating disorder, what it served, and what to "recognize everything it could take away".Mallary said it is really important to talk about recovery, even if not fully recovered. She writes about what the middle place is like. She explains that it is not a place of stagnancy, it is about recognizing the slips, and to move towards that recovery with being honest. She speaks about immediacy, rather than delaying to remain as a slip instead of going into a slide. Mallory does have her husband and other people who she can rely on. This is so important.We also spoke to even after recovery, are there still signs that remain? Do we still restrict even after recovery? A lingering imprint, is what Mallary said, and I personally do not pay attention to it in general, however, I will say at odd times I do.The book is out today on Amazon, and Barnes and Noble. You can also reach Mallary at www.mallarytenoretarpley.com or on Amazon.comThank you, Mallary, for your insight.Support the show

In this raw, reflective episode of The Renae Saager Show, Renae shares the messy truth behind her longest run in nearly a decade—and how it cracked open unexpected clarity about identity, comparison, and self-trust.What starts as a story about an 8-hour race turns into real talk about the emotional weight of doing life differently: raising a toddler without family nearby, grieving a parent, recovering from disordered eating, staying sober for 16 years, and not always "training for the race"—but still showing up.She breaks down how easy it is to compare yourself to people who aren't even in the same damn race, and why two years is the sweet spot for real growth to start taking root—even if it's messy.If you've ever thought “I should be further along by now,” or looked at someone else and instantly felt behind—this one's for you.

At 78, he's lived through war, marriage, career highs—and a 30-year secret battle with bulimia. Although he was raised in a middle-class family with healthy eating habits, he internalized early messages that “thin is good” and “fat is bad.” He grew up with food scarcity, body shame, and pressure to be thin, which led to a decades-long cycle of bingeing and purging, hidden even from his closest loved ones. For years, he felt alone, believing bulimia was a “women's issue.” He hit rock bottom when he lost his business and marriage due to bulimia. He then received an unexpected call from a member of Food Addicts in Recovery Anonymous (FA), who encouraged him to attend a meeting, which changed everything. There he found the community, tools, and sponsorship that broke the cycle for good. Today, with over 20 years of abstinence, he shares how recovery restored his health, his relationships, and his peace of mind.
Still feeling stuck in recovery, even after therapy, nutrition work, or intuitive eating? You are not alone. In this solo episode of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, Dr. Marianne Miller explores a common but often overlooked reason why recovery can feel incomplete: the possibility of living with more than one eating disorder at the same time. Through a trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming lens, Dr. Marianne unpacks how symptoms from anorexia, ARFID, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and orthorexia can overlap. She explains why traditional treatment models often miss the full picture and offers insights for those whose food struggles are complex, ongoing, and still misunderstood. This episode offers clarity, encouragement, and real solutions for those who have been feeling unseen in recovery. CONTENT CAUTIONS: This episode includes discussion of the following topics: Eating disorder behaviors including restriction, bingeing, purging, and food avoidance Co-occurring and misdiagnosed eating disorders Sensory aversions and food-related trauma Weight stigma and systemic bias in diagnosis Neurodivergent experiences related to eating Please care for yourself while listening. Take breaks as needed and return when you feel ready. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: Why multiple eating disorders can exist at the same time How eating disorder symptoms often overlap or shift over time Examples of combinations like ARFID with anorexia, or binge eating with orthorexia The ways neurodivergence, trauma, and marginalization impact eating behavior Why traditional recovery approaches may not work for everyone What it means to build a recovery model that supports your full lived experience Encouragement for those who feel like their recovery has stalled or isn't working How to seek care that addresses the full picture rather than one diagnosis MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

Struggling with bulimia in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or beyond? You're not alone. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explores what bulimia can look like in midlife, why the internal chaos may actually intensify with age, and how to approach healing without shame. We dig into the unique emotional and physiological challenges of recovering from bulimia later in life, including how hormonal shifts, grief, caregiving roles, and long-term masking can impact eating behaviors. Dr. Marianne also unpacks how neurodivergence—especially autism, ADHD, and PDA—can intersect with bulimia symptoms, intensifying binge-purge cycles and making traditional recovery models inaccessible or even harmful. You'll learn why your body's responses make sense, how to regulate your nervous system with neurodivergent-affirming strategies, and what it actually takes to move toward healing—on your terms. WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE Why bulimia often resurfaces or intensifies in midlife How midlife stress, identity shifts, and cultural stigma contribute to internal chaos The link between bulimia, sensory overwhelm, and emotional regulation How neurodivergent traits like executive dysfunction, masking, and interoceptive challenges affect eating behaviors Why shame-based approaches don't work—and what actually helps Practical, compassionate tools for managing binge urges, purging, and nervous system dysregulation Why recovery in midlife is not only possible—but deeply liberating THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF... You feel stuck in a binge-purge cycle despite years of effort You're neurodivergent and traditional ED treatment hasn't helped You've been quietly struggling with bulimia in midlife and feel alone in it You want recovery tools that are sensory-attuned, autonomy-affirming, and realistic
