## Resource

What happens when the person closest to you doesn’t understand your food addiction or the choices you need to make to stay food sober? In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast , I talk about one of the most frustrating and emotional challenges in food addiction recovery: navigating recovery when your spouse or partner doesn’t understand your boundaries, believes you should be able to eat everything in moderation, or simply can’t relate to your experience with food. If you’ve ever felt unsupported, misunderstood, or found yourself repeatedly trying to explain why certain foods and behaviors aren’t an option for you, this episode offers an important perspective on protecting your recovery, setting healthy boundaries, and building the support system you need.
