Do you find yourself stuck in the binge-eating cycle, desperate to break free? You don’t have to navigate this alone. Join your hosts, Katy and Becca, as they share their personal journeys from struggling with binge eating and the pressures of perfectionism, to finding peace and acceptance not only with their bodies but with themselves as well. Each episode offers relatability, heartfelt discussions, and support for anyone facing these challenges. Tune in as Katy and Becca unpick what’s really going on behind the binge eating and bad body image days, why it’s so damn hard to let go of perfection but oh so liberating once you take the leap!
