The fear of weight gain is one of the most paralysing and misunderstood parts of eating disorder recovery. And in this episode of Fly to Freedom, I'm not sugar-coating it. I'm answering the question I get asked more than any other: Can I actually stop being afraid of gaining weight?The truth is, yes—you can. But not in the way your brain probably hopes. Recovery isn't about waiting for the fear to go before you take action. It's about taking action even while the fear is loud. In this episode, I unpack what's really behind the fear of weight gain—beyond body image—and why so many people stay stuck even after their weight is restored.We'll explore:Why gaining weight doesn't magically remove the fearThe deep childhood beliefs and emotional wiring that feed body shameWhy this fear is part of the eating disorder itself—not a neutral preferenceThe real reason people still struggle after physical recoveryHow to meet the younger part of you who internalised the belief that thinness meant safetyWhat it takes to move through fear with self-compassion instead of perfectionismYou'll walk away with powerful insights and practical mindset shifts to help you stop letting fear make your decisions, and start choosing recovery with your whole heart—even when it's hard.

Welcome to another powerful episode of The George Peterson Podcast! In this special episode, I'm excited to share a conversation I had recently as part of The Spiritual Book Club's Life Changing Chat series with the amazing Jacinta.This was an honest, eye-opening discussion on addiction, trauma, Breathwork, and healing—and one that I believe will resonate deeply with anyone on the path of personal growth.We unpacked some of the big myths around addiction and why, in my experience, we often treat it backwards. It's not about asking why the addiction?—but why the pain? Because behind every addictive pattern is an unmet emotion or wound we haven't yet learned to sit with.We explored:My personal journey through addiction recoveryHow addiction shows up beyond substances—think phones, social media, judgmentThe role of distraction in sabotaging our dreamsWhy Breathwork is such a powerful tool to move through emotional pain and traumaHow regular meditation helps us stop bullshitting ourselves and make the growth zone our new comfort zoneAnd why the best way to inspire others into this work is to embody it yourselfThis conversation is a deep dive into emotional honesty, healing through discomfort, and how Breathwork and meditation can help us break free from the patterns that hold us back.

Smith, MD and  Vinod Srihari, MD, Every day, millions of Americans face untreated mental health challenges—and too often, their first point of contact is a medical doctor unequipped to help. Most physicians - and many others who teach and advise youth - aren't trained to recognize or treat mental health conditions, yet they're the ones patients turn to first. This gap in training has devastating consequences, contributing to the mental health crisis we see today.Dr. Robert Smith, a seasoned physician and thought leader, is sounding the alarm: medical doctors need fundamental training in mental health care. His new book, Has Medicine Lost Its Mind? Why Our Mental Health System is Failing Us and What Should Be Done to Cure (Prometheus Books, March 4, 2025) addresses the poor state of mental health care in the US, why it occurred, what needs to be done, and how to accomplish this politically. Our Second Guest, Vinod Srihari, MD, spearheads a new program in CT which has just been expanded to reach the whole state after a trial run in 10 towns around New Haven. STEP is a clinic staffed by mental health providers in different fields – psychology, psychiatry, nursing, and social work. This "interdisciplinary" team seeks to provide comprehensive care for individuals who are early in the course of a psychotic illness in order to prevent symptoms from becoming disabling.We Find Out:Why so many mental health issues go untreated and misdiagnosed—and what it costs us as a society.The value of early detection and treatment in Mental illness to help with prevention and recoveryHow medical doctors can better address mental health needs with proper training.

Hello, my loves! This episode is raw, real, and recorded in the chaos of life as a new mama. I'm sharing a life update and answering your questions about motherhood, eating disorder recovery, and everything in between. From breastfeeding challenges to navigating body changes postpartum, and from recovery fears to practical tools for freedom, I'm bringing you all the juicy insights and honest reflections. Whether you're curious about how I'm balancing it all (spoiler: I'm not!), or you're looking for guidance in your own recovery journey, this episode is for you. What's Inside This Episode: [00:00] Life Update: A candid chat about navigating motherhood, sleepless nights, and surrendering to the new rhythm of life with my baby girl.

[00:10] Motherhood & Recovery: How my recovery prepared me to embrace the changes of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum life with trust and gratitude. [00:15] Q&A Part 1 - Motherhood: Answering your questions about: [00:24] Q&A Part 2 - Recovery: Deep dives into your biggest recovery questions, including: [00:41] Q&A Part 3 - Life: Thoughts on managing loneliness, finding pleasure beyond food, creating a meaningful recovery “why,” and navigating relationships while healing. Key Takeaways: Motherhood teaches surrender: Slowing down, letting go, and being present have been life-changing lessons for me in this new chapter.

In this episode of Hospitals in Focus, we're pulling back the curtain on an often-overlooked  yet truly “critical” aspect of our health care system—the supply chain. It's the backbone of  our hospitals, ensuring that essential medical supplies reach patients in need. But what  happens when that chain breaks? Host Chip Kahn is joined by Ed Jones, President and CEO of HealthTrust Performance  Group, to discuss recent events that exposed vulnerabilities in this intricate network.  Following Hurricane Helene's catastrophic impact on a major manufacturing facility for IV  solutions, hospitals nationwide faced a sudden, alarming shortage. This crisis underscores  that our health care supply chain is a fragile, interconnected network, frequently  dependent on a limited number of suppliers and manufacturers. In this episode, Chip and Ed discuss: An introduction to Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs), and how they help  hospitals secure reliable supplies at fair prices. Pandemic and Disaster Preparedness: How the COVID-19 pandemic and  Hurricane Helene revealed and accelerated shifts in our supply chain, and what  parallels these events share. The Role of GPOs in Drug Supply: An examination of how GPOs respond to  shortages and their impact on supply and pricing. International Reach and Recovery: How global supply chains influence our health care systems. HealthTrust's Unique Approach: What sets HealthTrust apart from other GPOs in  its approach to building a resilient and cost-effective supply chain. Guest Bio:  As President and CEO of Healthtrust Performance Group, Ed has overall responsibility for a  broad set of capabilities focused on supporting healthcare providers. His primary focus is  providing the strategic direction and leadership of a comprehensive spend management  and performance improvement business based in Nashville, Tennessee. Jones oversees  all dimensions of a $52B portfolio; directs all consulting, managed services and  outsourced relationships/alliances, including accountability for HCA Healthcare supply chain, sourcing contingent labor, facility management and clinical education.Jones' leadership encompasses several HealthTrust/HCA Healthcare business ventures  that strengthen provider performance and competitive advantage, including: HealthTrust Workforce Solutions - The clinical labor staffing and consulting  company including a proprietary program called StaRN (extensive training program  for all new nurses) HCA Healthcare Center for Clinical Advancement - Responsible for providing  continual education for over 90,000 nurses at HCA Healthcare through a team of  approximately 800+ educators and several simulation labs HealthTrust Europe, which provides sourcing and supply chain services to HCA U.K.  and sourcing services to 39 provider trusts in the U.K. HealthTrust Global Sourcing Office in Shanghai, China Galen College of Nursing Group purchasing organization that delivers clinically integrated solutions and  savings across all sites of care He has 40 years of experience within the Healthcare industry, serving in his current role for  the last 11 years and serving previously as the Chief Operating Officer of HealthTrust  Performance Group with responsibility for strategic sourcing, clinical operations, custom  contracting, supplier diversity, and regional operations.
