They stop being needed.In this episode I share:✨ The difference between habits and routines (and why it matters in recovery)✨ How your brain wires habits — and how to rewire them with choice✨ Why forcing yourself out of ED habits never works long-term✨ The “swap, don’t stop” principle that makes change easier✨ Why allowance and self-trust create freedom💬 Powerful quotes from the episode:💬 “You are not your brain.
