Why Letting Go Is So Important

Letting go of things is super hard, but so is holding onto things. It drains you completely. It's difficult to learn that a person is no longer serving you, but letting go of them will do you so much good.

Lazy girl era to productive girl era

Over the past few months I've neglected self-care and thus productivity. By introducing a new-found morning routine, I've seen the increase in productivity, and mainly that having that hour or two by yourself in the morning really sets up for the day!

Christmas Time & Eating Disorders

Do you find Christmas a struggle in ED recovery? A lot of us do. It's particularly hard when you see everyone else enjoying all the festive drinks, treats and dinners, and you still think you can't. Advice of the day is that you can! Christmas is a challenge, but we need to keep challenging ourselves EVERY SINGLE DAY in recovery, until we find it easy. But remember, there will always be those hard days and recovery isn't linear, we're all so different. Don't be so hard on yourself, either. If yo...

Self-sabotage, accountability and a bit on boundaries!

We all are guilty of self-sabotage: we often punish ourselves for things we have or haven't done, even going as far back as when we were little. How do we change this? Well, we work on ourselves. Every day. It's not easy - trust me, it's sooo not easy - but with time we get better at it. Learn your triggers, set your boundaries, and above all, focus on yourself. Prioritise yourself. Work on who you want to become, how and why. As soon as we have a better understanding of ourselves, we can then w...

Be proud of yourself, look at how far you've come!

today i'm talking about a realisation i had yesterday whilst on a train back from an event in London. i realised how far i had come in the last year. we put ourselves down so much and focus on extremely high expectations. we beat ourselves up if we fail. why? why do we put so much pressure on ourselves! let's change that narrative and be the ones to build ourselves back up. focus on the good in every day, and look back and see where you are now, it's different, isn't it? doesn't that feel good? ...

Today's episode uncovers the importance of finding the things that you truly love to do, those hobbies that you haven't been able to do due to being at school and feeling judged for it.

The Scariest Part of an Eating Disoder

What's the scariest part of having an ED? No, it's not the gaining weight, nor eating carbs again. The scariest thing is knowing that if you don't change anything, if you don't choose recovery, you could be like this for a long time, or indefinitely. You could stay this ill for the rest of your life. And even scarier? The fact this if you stay like this, you're going to continue to hurt everyone around you. For so long I didn't realise what I was doing was hurting my family, especially my parent...

Running From Your Problems

This week's episode is a heavy one. We all go through hardships in life, even people who seem to have their life all put together. Sometimes, we go through things and do not realise how much they affect us. I'm going through something major right now, and I haven't realised how much it has impacted my life. I've slipped down the rabbit hole of sadness - I've been faking smiles for a while now without knowing I was doing so. Realising you're not OK is hard, especially for those of us who are on t...
