In this episode, Alana sits down with Anna Wolfe for a conversation about the overlap between sobriety, eating disorders, emotional eating, body image, intimacy, and relationships. Anna shares how food was the first thing she ever used to cope, how her relationship with food and alcohol became deeply intertwined, and how recovery changed far more than her behaviors. It changed how she related to her body, her self-worth, and her ability to experience intimacy as herself. This episode is for the woman healing her relationship with food and who is starting to realize the issue may be bigger than food alone.

Guest Info:

Anna Wolfe is the host of How to Get Wet When You’re Dry, a podcast exploring recovery, addiction, relationships, and intimacy. She is a journalist in recovery from alcohol and an eating disorder.
