Learn About Coaching
Recovery isn’t just about stopping behaviors—it’s about transforming your life. My philosophy focuses on moving from a place of fear, anxiety, and rigidity to one of joy, peace, and freedom.
Many people wonder, How will I know when I’m recovered? or What does recovery really mean? I resonate deeply with Carolyn Costin’s empowering definition of being recovered:
Hint: The Journey is Worth the Destination
What Recovery Looks Like
“Being recovered is when the person can accept their natural body size and shape and no longer has a self-destructive relationship with food or exercise. When you are recovered, food and weight take a proper perspective in your life, and what you weigh is not more important than who you are; in fact, actual numbers are of little or no importance at all. When recovered, you will not compromise your health or betray your soul to look a certain way, wear a certain size, or reach a certain number on the scale. When you are recovered, you do not use eating disorder behaviors to deal with, distract from, or cope with other problems.”
— Carolyn Costin
Recovery is a journey toward embracing your true self and finding balance. It’s about shifting your focus to what truly matters: your health, happiness, and authenticity.

Meet Brandy
COACHING CLIENT
She is willing to work with you on whatever you want and/or need. She can help you go clothes shopping, grocery shopping, eat meals/snacks together, clean out your closet, talk about whatever is going on in your life (food related or not), or do meaningful bookwork in The 8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder. One of my favorite things to do is exposures, which helps you gain real-world experience in a less stressful environment. I have always enjoyed our meals out together. She is so kind, patient, easy to talk to, and so understanding. Our meetings are always very beneficial. She offers real tools I can use and implement in my daily life supporting my recovery. One of the things I love most is how knowledgeable she is about eating disorder recovery and anti-diet culture. There is a lot to learn and unlearn about food and diet culture in recovery. I would not have gotten to where I am without Brandy!
