In this episode of Find Your Food Voice, Julie Duffy Dillon and guest Katy Harvey discuss the complexities of binge eating, particularly in the context of betrayal, heartbreak, and significant life transitions. They explore the common feelings of isolation and shame that accompany these struggles, emphasizing the importance of understanding the biological and emotional factors at play. The conversation highlights the impact of diet trauma, the cycle of restriction and bingeing, and the necessity of creating a supportive environment for healing.
