But what if some of the most common beliefs about addiction recovery are actually keeping you stuck? In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast , I challenge five widely accepted messages about addiction recovery and explores what long-term food sobriety and freedom can really look like. If you’re tired of fighting with food, questioning yourself, and wondering why traditional advice hasn’t worked for you, this episode will give you a different way to think about recovery, acceptance, and lasting freedom from food obsession.
