In this solo episode, I’m diving into my hot take on CBT — cognitive behavioural therapy — and why, although it’s helpful for eating disorder recovery, it’s absolutely not enough if you’re looking for full, lasting freedom.I’m sharing openly and passionately about:✨ What CBT does well (and why I still use parts of it in my coaching)✨ Why mindset work alone can’t heal trauma responses✨ How to translate “I feel fat” into what’s really going on underneath✨ What I believe is truly missing in most eating disorder recovery work✨ How to stop relapsing by getting to the root of it all — emotionally, spiritually, somatically✨ My own step-by-step recovery map that combines inner child work, nervous system healing, soul retrieval, and parts workThis one’s packed with insight — whether you’re in therapy, doing self-recovery, or supporting someone else. It’s time to go deeper, and I’m here to walk you through it.📌 I also mention:– My free support group with coaching calls & replays: https://victoriakleinsman.com/free-taste-test/– How to join the Body Love Binge group or apply for 1:1 support: https://victoriakleinsman.com/11-coaching/– Come hang on IG: @victoriakleinsmanofficial

In this deeply honest and uplifting conversation, I sat down with the beautiful Tegan Louise to chat all things recovery, healing, trauma, and how our beliefs about food and bodies are formed long before we even realise it.We went everywhere in this chat—attachment styles, inner child wounds, parenting, body image, sex, intimacy, fear of weight gain, people pleasing, and that moment you finally say, “I’ve had enough.”If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same cycle, or like your self-worth is hanging on the size of your jeans—this one’s for you.💥 In this episode, we cover:Why your food/body struggles always start in childhoodHow to recognise (and rewire) your attachment styleFeeling safe in your body after traumaReclaiming pleasure, joy & desireWhat recovery really means beyond just “eating more”My real-life moments of change: in the mirror, at the BBQ, and in bedHow coaching can transform your healing & what I offerIf you’ve ever asked yourself “Why do I still feel like this?” or “Is recovery actually possible for me?”—this episode will land like a warm, empowering hug.🔥 5 Epic Quotes to Highlight:“Have you had enough yet? If so—then it’s time to choose something different.”“Recovery isn’t about fixing your body. It’s about freeing your mind.”“You don’t have to wait to hit rock bottom. You just have to decide this isn’t good enough to stay.”“I used to cover my legs to ‘protect’ others from seeing my cellulite.

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by my incredible client Tara, who opens up about her 30-year journey with anorexia—and what finally helped her step into true freedom.This conversation is a deep, emotional, and honest exploration of what it really takes to recover after decades of struggle, secrecy, and perfectionism. Tara shares how a milestone birthday cracked her open, how trauma shaped her need for control, and how letting go of that control changed everything.💥 In this episode, we talk about:How childhood trauma planted the seeds of disordered eatingThe link between people pleasing, perfectionism, and restrictionWhy traditional routes didn’t work—and what didNavigating fear, body image shifts, and “future tripping”The decision to choose life, freedom, and fun over controlWhat real support looks like when it’s about YOU—not just the foodLife after recovery: confidence, invincibility, and finally being yourselfThis is one of the most inspiring recovery stories I’ve had the honour to share. If you’ve ever felt like it’s “too late” or that freedom just isn’t available for you… this episode will blow that myth wide open.💖 Tara’s message to you?The fear is so much worse than the reality. And the lightness in your head is so worth the heaviness in your body.🔥 5 Epic Quotes to Highlight:“The fear couldn’t hurt me. But the eating disorder could.”“I didn’t realise I was trying to fix two problems—until I learned they were one.”“I don’t want to be extra, extra small.

In this episode, I joined Emily for a deep and soulful conversation on the mini series she’s created – diving into real, raw, and essential truths about healing from an eating disorder.Here’s what we explored together:✨ My three most important lessons from recovery (and how they shifted everything).✨ The power of owning that no one is coming to save you – and why that’s the ultimate key to freedom.✨ How true healing goes far beyond food and body image… it’s about loving and fully accepting your authentic self.✨ Why fighting can only take you so far, and why surrender was my secret weapon.✨ What full recovery feels like (and why it’s so worth it).I also shared a personal story about how my healing journey unlocked self-expression, love, and deep peace – and how it still shapes the way I show up in my life today.Emily and I both agreed: Recovery was the hardest thing we’ve ever done. And it’s worth every second.💜 If you’re questioning whether to leap into recovery… let this be the nudge you need.Connect with me:🌍 Website: https://victoriakleinsman.com/💜 Free support group: https://victoriakleinsman.com/free-taste-test/📸 Instagram: @victoriakleinsmanofficialAs always, I’d love to hear what landed most for you – drop me a message!
