If your cravings aren’t satisfied by food, then your struggle might not be about eating at all. But it can be difficult to figure out what’s behind your longings. In this episode of our ongoing series, Dealing with Your Addictions, we tackle a topic that you may struggle with quietly: your complicated relationship with food. Lynn Roush, LPC sits down with counselor Kelsey Crandall, PLPC from The Current, a Columbia, MO-based clinic specializing in helping clients heal from disordered eating. You’ll hear about these key ideas: The ways that food issues are tied to emotional, relational, and spiritual pain Why someone struggling with disordered eating can look “normal” from the outside How shame and silence may keep you stuck The 5 C’s that explain why “food is more than food” Therapeutic and faith-based interventions that pave the way for healing You’ll want to listen in as Kelsey brings a warm, grounded perspective on what’s really going on beneath the surface of eating disorders—and why you may feel stuck in patterns you can’t simply “willpower” your way out of. This conversation is full of insight that will help you reflect on the role food plays in your life and how to deal with this inner struggle with hope and support.
