Meet Katy

Welcome back to Rebuilding Trust With Your Body! Let’s talk about that moment. You know the one, when a binge hits out of nowhere, and suddenly you’re sitting there feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, and like you’ve totally blown it.

If you’ve ever thought, “What’s wrong with me?” or found yourself Googling how to detox after a binge… you’re not alone. And this episode is here to walk you gently through what to do next, without punishing yourself, restricting your food, or deciding you need to start over on Monday.

Katy’s sharing a compassionate, step-by-step process to help you pause, listen to your body, and move forward with kindness (not guilt).

Here’s what we’re diving into:

  • Why bingeing isn’t a failure, it’s feedback from your body
  • How sneaky thoughts like “I’ll be better tomorrow” can trigger binge behavior
  • The difference between physically allowing all foods vs. mentally still judging them
  • Why emotional suppression and perfectionism often show up in binge cycles
  • Katy’s 3-step approach to help you reconnect with your body after a binge, without shame

Wellness Woo of the Week: Oz Patch

This one’s… something. The Oz Patch popped up in Katy’s feed, and let’s just say it raised all the red flags. It’s trying to sound like Ozempic, but it’s really just a patch full of herbs with no science to back it up, and some truly terrible reviews.

You’ll want to hear Katy’s full breakdown (and gentle rant) on why we’re so often sold these “quick fixes,” and what to look out for instead.

Resources Mentioned:

Just because you binged doesn’t mean you’ve failed.
You’re not starting over. You’re continuing forward with more self-awareness, more compassion, and more trust in your body than before.

And that’s something worth celebrating.
