Known for her blunt, science-based, no-nonsense approach, Tabitha talks openly about:Why she believes recovery doesn’t have to be complicated.The crucial role of facing fears — especially around exercise and weight gain.How negative body image is learned, and how to actually unlearn it.Why acting “as if” you like your body can rewire the brain faster than waiting for the feelings to change.The recovery myths that keep people stuck, including the idea that bingeing in recovery is something to fear.💛 If you’d like to connect with Tabitha, you can find her at tabithafarrar.com and on her YouTube channel.💛 If you’re ready to take the next step in your own recovery, visit juliatrehane.com.
