EP. 13 - Karly Pitman - Food Healing Specialist Speaks on Food Addiction

What if overeating isn’t a lack of willpower—but a longing to fill that void and hunger for God.In this conversation, Karly Randolph Pitman shares a compassionate, relational understanding of our relationship with food, healing, and the deeper human need to be held, understood, and loved by the mother.Drawing from developmental and relational psychology, years of supporting others, and her own lived experience with eating disorders and depression, Karly shares her journey finding her authentic hunger for God underneath the protective food addictions.Together, we explore:    •    Karlys Poetry    •    Why food can become an emotional attachment rather than simply a habit    •    The hidden roots of overeating and food suffering    •    The role of food being a form of a mother to people    •    Parenting, relationships, and reconciling the path of Christianity    •    Where Neuroscience has a place with a relationship with God.Karly is the creator of Growing Humankindness and When Food is Your Mother, where she offers a relational perspective on addiction, emotional healing, and personal growth. She is a writer, poet, teacher, facilitator, and mother whose work has helped thousands of people develop a more compassionate relationship with food and themselves.Connect with Karly Randolph Pitman🌿 Growing Humankindness: https://growinghumankindness.com (https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa3RLSmJJWm5leWt2REhZdGxnQmI0a2JxX0Jxd3xBQ3Jtc0tuWDRxa0VUMDlHS1BuM2RiVk9xcUtBbWFnTWp5WWJqWlB2eFREX1BqeEdheFZ5T3U5Y3BFdVk0LXh1eC05bnJxY2pScUVha3FPZTMtVThQejRZMzJpUFlwUDcwU1ByNHV5SlRPQnM1T1BzR2dWVUlBaw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fgrowinghumankindness.com%2F&v=8akpnNFVFfI)🌿 When Food is Your Mother: https://whenfoodisyourmother.substack...
