Episode 12: Dear Recovery... The Goal Was Never the Swimsuit

from Dear Recovery · host csteddy12

Hello Friend, Swimsuit season can bring up a lot of fear, anxiety, and body image struggles—but you don't have to let those thoughts steal another summer. In this episode of Dear Recovery, we're talking about what really matters when recovery meets beach days, pool parties, and vacations. We'll explore how to quiet the eating disorder's voice, make room for flexibility, and remember that the people who love you aren't inviting your body—they're inviting you. Because the goal was never the swimsuit. The goal was always your life. "If something has been weighing on your heart, I'd love to hear from you. Send me your questions, your thoughts, or even just say hello. You can email me at [email protected] or send me a DM on Instagram @dear_recovery1. No question is too messy, and you never have to figure it out alone."
