Liberatory hope is not toxic positivity! It is essential for taking action and it is defiance in a system that tells us how to think, feel, behave.

So many of us are feeling dread, fear, helplessness- all valid responses to what is going on. Know that hope comes from these places too.

When you don’t know what to do, remember. Remember the civil rights movements that have led to change before. Remember movements that have led to justice. Remember how one persons actions can change the lives on many- and you can be that person too. Your voice matters. Keep using it, keep speaking up, keeping donating, keep checking on your people, keep believing a different world is possible and coming.

Absolutely sickened at what this is coming to, what it’s been coming to. I have beloved friends in MN confirming that the door to door checks are truly happening. I feel so sick I barely have words. So I’m going to share some resources and poems that articulate how this better than I can in this moment. Please don’t look away. Please wake up. Take action. Speak out. Stand up when and where you can.

Wishing each and every one of you safety and care.

I know I’m late to the party with this post but here were my favorite reads of 2025. I realize I spent a lot of my rare free time in 2025 trying to understand what the f**k leads to so much violence- from memoirs to social justice classics and parenting/kids books, I learned a lot about my role in fostering change and hope.

I’m posting this during a particularly violent, hateful, ugly time in US history. I have no words for how enraged and disgusted I feel. But I’ll keep reading, learning and unlearning, disrupting and strengthening in community- and I hope you do too.

In the end hate will not help a society grow, it only destroys it.

Something I notice so often is how rocky peoples relationships can feel not just during an active ED but even after the trenches of recovery. I have thought about this a lot, and experienced it myself- here are some of the underlying dynamics I’ve noticed! And more importantly, what you can do to start pivoting and healing deeper. 🫶🏽❤️‍🩹

So many people in power (mostly men)- knew what was going on but did nothing to stop it. Why? There’s obviously many reasons, money being one. But I can’t help but think of the role of the collective unconscious in normalizing the eroticization of girlhood. It starts so young. This impacts how we see girls and women over time. Mix this with patriarchy, anti-fatness, money, r*pe culture, and you can see how harm flourished.

The news cycle is trying to cover up the Epstein files yet again, flooding us with tons of other horrifying things. But don’t forget about the survivors. Don’t forget to demand justice and to examine how we got here in the first place.

Oh and btw the current body ideal is back to this place of extreme thinness 😡

Maybe it’s the adhd or maybe it’s being in the trenches of toddler parenthood- but this year I’ve been loving (it’s all my brain can seem to hold right now) bite sized gems of writing to keep me grounded, that I can quickly come back to over and over. Sharing some of my favs with you as we end this year.

Whatever you’re doing and wherever you are; I’m sending you love 💗

Not that it makes recovery ‘easier’ but it can awaken a desire to break the food rules just for the *spite* of pushing back on a sick misogynistic system that wants us small and frail.

I call this values realignment 👏

Tell me below what motivates you to keep going in recovery, despite the influx of extreme thinness glorification, GLP-1’s, etc. ⬇️

New blog by Reece on our practices website! Give it a read and let us know if you can relate. Something that has helped both of us with harm ocd, especially relational harm ocd, is ‘s breakdown of what harm actually is. Pop psychology conflates harm with things that are often not harm, which leaves room for OCD brains to run wild. (Iykyk) 😂

Of course, there’s a lot more that goes into OCD therapy, but this gem of a blog post is definitely something you don’t want to miss in terms of exploring how OCD can make us question our values.

If you’re looking for a therapist in WA, UT or MD who specializes in ED, OCD and neurodiversity affirming care, reach out via the link on our bio to get connected to Reece!

As an ED therapist I couldn’t *not* share some tips for navigating the holidays. It’s a rough time for a lot of people, and especially those struggling with an eating disorder. Tip #4 and 7 REALLY helped me when I was in the trenches of recovery. I can’t say it made it all better, but it made it more manageable.

I’m thinking of each and every one of you- and I believe in you. 🫶🏽☃️

Sometimes our feelings do not match our values. This doesn’t make you a hypocrite. Many of our feelings are conditioned responses shaped by survival, which sometimes is in contrast with how we want to feel or what we believe in our core. I see this come up for many people in ED recovery- especially right now when we are surrounded by immense pressure to shrink our bodies and we see people we love falling into this trap. It can make us question our own bodies and long for a smaller one. That makes sense- we live in an anti-fat culture. We can notice those feelings without acting on them- we can lean into integrity around our values even when it’s hard.

Let me know your thoughts! Has this been coming up for you?

Birthdays have always been a time of not just celebration (I do love a good party, I’m a sag ♐️), but also deep reflection. I like exploring the themes in the lessons I learned both through my own personal life, my work life and the various communities I’m apart of. I have a lotttt more to say, but here’s 4 that feel really important to name and share. ✨

I hope you feel seen or validated in these lessons. 💗

And thank you to each and every one of you who has supported me and taught me in ways big and small this year. Sharing knowledge, insights and tools on IG and on my podcast continues to feel like a very important community offering that I enjoy giving outside of therapy.

My posts might be fewer and further between due to being in the trenches of toddler parenting, but I love showing up when I have the capacity 💗

What lessons have you learned this year? Tell me below!
