Breaking Free: Body Liberation After Binge Eating Disorder With Sophia Apostol @fatjoy.life

🎙️ Ready to unlearn everything diet culture taught you about binge eating and reclaim your joy? In this episode, I'm joined by Sophia Apostol, coach and creator of @fatjoy.life, to talk about what true body liberation looks like after binge eating disorder recovery. We explore how shame and restriction keep us stuck, what it really means to trust your body, and how Sophia found freedom through radical self-compassion and fat joy. This conversation is full of wisdom, warmth, and tangible tools for healing your relationship with food and your body—without shrinking yourself. Hit play and let's get into it! ABOUT SOPHIA APOSTOL Sophia Apostol is a Body Liberation Coach. Her approach is about understanding the pain points and obstacles we face, deepening our self-knowledge and skill sets, and making intentionally meaningful changes towards the life we want. Sophia’s coaching style has been described by past clients as being wrapped in a warm blanket that gives them the confidence to feel like everything is possible and the grit to move towards their dreams. Sophia has experienced a lot of tough life stuff herself (divorce, miscarriage, illness, step-parenting, eating disorder, bankruptcy, etc.), so she really gets it. And she knows how essential having a soft place to land is so that we can rise up from rock bottom. She has a genuine passion for helping people, connecting them to their strengths, and instilling a transformative belief in themselves that is action-oriented and forward-focused.
