    Episode 5: Navigating Food and Holiday Challenges with Compassion and Strategy
    2024/11/26
    In this episode, The Shrinks explore the complexities of the holiday season, particularly for those managing food addiction or emotional challenges tied to festivities. With a mix of humor, science, and heartfelt personal experiences, the hosts discuss strategies to navigate the season authentically and with self-compassion. From preparing in advance and managing food temptations to setting boundaries and taking timeouts, this conversation is packed with practical advice for handling both food and family dynamics. Whether you love the holidays or find them overwhelming, this episode offers insights to help you approach the season with confidence and care. 1. Diverse Experiences with Holidays: o The holidays evoke a range of emotions and experiences, from joy and celebration to anxiety and trauma. Acknowledging and owning your feelings about this season can be a powerful step toward navigating it authentically. 2. Holiday Preparation is Key: o Whether you love or dread the holidays, preparation can reduce stress and decision fatigue. Key strategies include:  Self-Care Before Events: Exercise, mindfulness, or grounding activities can help center you.  Eating Beforehand: Arrive at events satiated to avoid hunger-driven choices.  Visualization: Mentally rehearse how you want to feel and act at events to set the tone. 3. Managing Food Temptations: o Overvalued holiday foods can trigger overeating. Incorporating “special” foods into your regular diet ahead of the season helps reduce their scarcity and allure. o Approach events with a plan for navigating tempting foods, such as focusing on connecting with people instead of grazing on appetizers. 4. Practical Tools for Overwhelm: o Time-Outs: Step away when needed—go outside, listen to music, or take a breath to reset. o Alternative Activities: Volunteering for tasks, like doing the dishes, can provide a purposeful escape from triggering situations. o Exit Strategies: Feel empowered to leave early or set boundaries to prioritize your well-being. 5. The Power of Accountability: o Connect with supportive communities to share your goals and celebrate successes. Accountability partners can help you stay grounded and navigate challenges. 6. Food Addiction Insights: o Euphoric recall, where food memories are heightened by dopamine and cortisol, plays a significant role in holiday food cravings. Awareness of these patterns can help you make mindful choices. 7. Shift the Focus: o Instead of placing all emotional value on a single holiday or food, embrace the broader season. Reframe the experience by integrating traditions and flavors into everyday life to reduce pressure and scarcity mentality. 8. Boundaries are Acts of Self-Love: o Setting limits with family, food, and even your own expectations is a profound act of self-care. It's okay to prioritize your mental and physical health, even if it means saying no or stepping away. 9. Permission to Protect Yourself: o Whether by taking timeouts, bringing an ally, or using “fake sick” as an exit strategy, remember that it’s okay to prioritize your recovery and well-being. 10. Stay Connected: o Holidays can be isolating, but they’re also an opportunity to lean into support systems. Use resources, like the podcast Q&A shorts on YouTube, to stay motivated and remind yourself you’re not alone.

  • Episode 4: Triggers, Transitions, and Truth with Molly Carmel

    Episode 4: Triggers, Transitions, and Truth with Molly Carmel
    2024/11/18

    Welcome back to another heartfelt episode of Food Shrinks! This week, we’re diving deep into what triggers us and how they show up in our lives. It’s Molly C.’s turn to share, and her honesty and vulnerability bring so much wisdom to the table.

    Molly opens up about navigating big life transitions, like her recent move from North Carolina, back to the Northeast. She shares how underestimated stressors—like moving, saying goodbye, and caring for a sick pet—combined with her “I’m fine” coping mechanism led to a challenging time in her recovery journey.

    Key highlights from the episode include:
    •Navigating Big Life Changes: How Molly’s move and life upheavals triggered unexpected behaviors and emotions.
    •Facing the Scale and Reality: Molly’s candid story of realizing she needed to reset her recovery plan after emotional eating and stress.
    •The Importance of Asking for Help: Molly’s decision to hire a coach, reframe her support system, and accept that even with 15 years of abstinence, there’s always room for growth and guidance.
    •Humility in Recovery: The humbling experience of needing to revisit basic tools, despite being a leader in the recovery space.
    •Reframing Relapse: Why the term “recurrence” is a more compassionate and accurate way to describe returning to disordered behaviors in food addiction recovery.
    •Embracing Imperfection: Life isn’t about perfection, even in long-term recovery. Molly discusses how recognizing moments of chaos can lead to profound personal lessons.
    •We also explore the importance of maintaining ongoing support, staying curious about your own behaviors, and embracing the idea that recovery isn’t linear—it’s a lifelong process of learning and growing.

    Key Takeaways for Listeners:
    •Recovery is a daily practice, not a destination.
    •It’s okay—and vital—to ask for help when you need it.
    •Naming and normalizing struggles can be the most healing act.
    •Life’s challenges don’t disappear; learning to navigate them with grace is what matters.

  • Episode 3: From Overwhelmed to Empowered: Molly P. Manages Triggers and Overwhelm in Recovery

    Episode 3: From Overwhelmed to Empowered: Molly P. Manages Triggers and Overwhelm in Recovery
    2024/11/12

    In this episode, The Shrinks dive deep into identifying and managing triggers on the path to recovery, with a special focus on insights from Molly P. We discuss how overwhelming schedules, feeling controlled, and people-pleasing tendencies can drive emotional eating or even binge-eating episodes. Molly reflects on her journey and the importance of recognizing when she's overextending herself, neglecting self-care, or shouldering more than she can bear—all classic triggers in her recovery.

    Key takeaways include the value of setting boundaries and prioritizing yourself in the face of external demands. Our panel emphasizes creating space in your schedule for breaks and meals and urges listeners to pause and check in with themselves regularly, even if it’s just for 10 minutes. This small act can help curb stress and prevent overwhelm.

    A powerful theme emerges around vulnerability and the need for support in recovery. Whether it's scheduling short breaks, learning to say "no," or asking for help, these are essential skills for protecting one’s mental and emotional health. Remember, self-care doesn’t require perfection—it’s about consistent, small steps that help you thrive. Join us as we explore the daily practices that contribute to a resilient recovery journey.
