Sober Living Stories02/20/24 • 45 min
Have you ever found solace in the depths of a pantry, seeking emotional refuge in food? Miriam Rachel has story is a testament to the power of positive change. Bravely looking at the root of her struggles with emotional eating, she shares her story. From a critical upbringing to the demands of caring for a special needs child, Miriam's journey through severe depression and a peak weight of 300 pounds speaks to the heart of anyone who's fought to overcome an addiction.
Finding solutions to food addiction and echoism (pathological people pleasing), our latest episode isn't just about Miriam's victory; it's about strategies anyone can employ to reclaim their life. Medication, she stresses, was merely a tool, not a solution. As Miriam learned to confront her emotions head-on, she found solace in the written word, turning to journaling to express and heal.
Listen as she discusses the delicate act of sharing personal struggles with the world, all while preserving privacy and dignity. It's a balancing act many of us can learn from, especially when letting go of past comforts in pursuit of a healthier self.
As a mental health advocate, she shares day-to-day tactics that sustain progress. Miriam doesn't shy away from discussing burnout, setting boundaries, and the importance of self-care, particularly for those in caregiving roles. She offers practical advice on managing nutrition, making peace with dietary changes, and finding balance within a world that often feels unbalanced.
Her healthy weight loss tips go beyond the scale, focusing on mental resilience, the celebration of non-scale victories, and the power of community support. Join us to hear how Miriam turned her trials into triumph, and how you also can win at a healthier, happier life.
