For years, I battled binge eating disorder, feeling trapped in an endless cycle of shame, secrecy, and self-loathing. I tried every diet, every rule, every punishment—only to find myself back in the same painful place.

In this brutally honest conversation, I sit down with Michelle Kester Ho, fellow binge eating survivor, and the person who helped me finally break free and together, we open up about:

  • The darkest moments of our binge eating struggles
  • The turning points that led to real healing
  • Why binge eating isn’t about willpower
  • How we re-learned to trust food, our bodies and ourselves
  • Practical tools to help anyone struggling with binge eating right now


We’d love to hear from you if this episode resonates with you.
