| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Brain Over Binge podcast, where you learn a simple, brain-based approach to ending binge eating. |
| 0:10.8 | Thank you so much for being here. I'm Catherine Hansen. I'm the author of Brain Over Binge and the Brain Over Binge Recovery Guide. |
| 0:17.3 | This is part two of a series that I'm recording that addresses healing your relationship |
| 0:21.5 | with food, yourself, and others. There's so much to explore in this topic, and if you're having |
| 0:27.2 | issues in relationships while also struggling with an eating disorder or even after recovery, |
| 0:32.8 | please know that you're not alone. The topic of relationships comes up on so many of the one-on-one |
| 0:37.7 | coaching calls that I do. And as I mentioned in the last episode, I recently got a relationship |
| 0:42.6 | coaching certification to be able to help people further in this area. In part one of this |
| 0:48.1 | podcast series, which was episode 171, and I'll link that in the show description, I talked |
| 0:53.4 | about some of the ways that eating disorders |
| 0:55.2 | can affect our capacity to engage in relationships with others and can also prevent us from |
| 1:01.0 | developing a healthier relationship with ourselves as well. I talked about this using the framework |
| 1:06.2 | of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, explaining that when your basic, physiological, and safety needs are not |
| 1:12.3 | being met, which is often the case when an eating disorder is present, you can't fully pursue |
| 1:17.5 | other needs for connection and relationships with others and with yourself. In this part two |
| 1:23.1 | episode, I want to talk about three main areas. First, I want to help you discover some of the ways |
| 1:28.3 | that your relationship with food has affected your other relationships. And this applies even after |
| 1:34.0 | recovery. The second thing I want to address is separating the relationship issues as much as |
| 1:39.1 | possible from your ability to recover so that you can overcome your issues with food, regardless of what |
| 1:45.6 | is going on in relationships. And last, I want to talk about how recovery gives you the brain space, |
| 1:51.6 | the energy, and the time to start building skills and healing relationships, or even reevaluating |
| 1:57.7 | relationships, and possibly walking away from ones that are no longer healthy for you. |
