🎙️ Monthly Q&A with Julia: The Truth About Recovery, Fear & Freedom
Join Victoria and Julia for a short but power-packed Q&A session where they role-play the voices of the eating disorder vs. the healthy self (with some hilarity!), explore physical recovery symptoms, and get radically honest about the fears, resistance, and beautiful truths of choosing recovery.
From dealing with exhaustion and edema to navigating the emotional highs and lows of healing, this episode is raw, real, and ultimately hopeful. Plus, they dive into listener questions around waiting to “have to” recover, creating a life beyond bulimia, and the real pros and cons of full recovery.
This one’s a quickie—but oh so juicy.
🎧 Topics include:
A playful (and uncomfortable!) ED vs. Healthy Self dialogue
Physical symptoms of recovery like bloating, fatigue, brain fog, and more
“Will I ever want recovery enough?”—navigating fear and avoidance
How to start creating a life bigger than your eating disorder
The real (and surprising) pros and cons of recovery
Victoria’s personal postpartum shift in fitness & self-care
Why compassion is the most powerful recovery tool
🧠 Quotes to remember:
“You are not here to be normal. You’re here to be free.”
“If it’s costing you your self-expression, love, and freedom… It’s too expensive.”
“Your eating disorder is costing you the life you secretly want.”
“Letting go is the way to grow.”

I value authenticity deeply. These show notes were created with the help of AI, but they come directly from my heart and my words, drawn from the podcast I created. Every sentence reflects the message I intended to share. I use AI as a tool—but the soul, the stories, and the truth are all mine.
