Not Your Regular Coach Podcast shelbyeschlangecoaching

If you know you know… family based therapy. It’s common practice in ED recovery for people under 21. If you don’t know what it is, you’ll find out. And if you do… we hope you made it out alive. Shelbye talks to Tessa, a former FBT queen about the experience. All jokes aside, and all horror stories aside— let it be known that this type of therapy DOES work for some and that shouldn’t be discredited. Listen at your own risk :) 

This week, we are joined with Mandy Liddle— host of Mandy’s Mind podcast. Mandy gets real on her experience with disordered eating and her recovery journey as well as having to watch her mother from a young age struggle with an ED. As most of us do, she learned a ton about relationships and healthy boundaries through it all. Let’s talk about it— what are boundaries and why do we need them? And why are they so damn hard?

Another case of live in gone rogue. Shelbye and Avery recap their… interesting experience in Chicago together. Join in the discussion of healing through trauma, recovering into what society deems as a “bigger body” (and all the stupid shit that comes with it) and finding peace with yourself, even if you never believed that recovery was possible for you.

This is a little bonus weekend treat… Shelbye and Tyler have an announcement. Shelbye has basically living a secret life for the last three months… and it’s time to talk about it. If you think you know, there’s more that you don’t. Stay tuned until the end for a little extra surprise. We will be over here wondering if this is real life— enjoy!

Today Shelbye speaks with Meg Ronnie (aka @_thewellness diaries on TikTok). Meg gives us a super interesting take on treatment outside of the United States along with the stereotypes that we all face across the world having to do with who “deserves” treatment. Listen as the two debunk these problematic assumptions as well as shed some light on the decision to recover after yo-yo-ing for so long. 

Join Shelbye and this weeks guest, Yael, as they discuss ALL of the things. From living in Turkey to going to school in the states, the differences in culture regarding not only body image but also with judgement around sexual orientation, the human need for social interaction and how an eating disorder can get in the way (and how to start to live your life again). A little of everything in this episode!
