162: Exploring Binge Eating with Erin Murnane

CW: conversations on binge eating and disordered eating
Friends welcome to another episode of Thrive Beyond Size. Many of you regular listeners may recall that this podcast went by a different name for the first one hundred episodes and had a different focus. It was called Mindful Weight Loss and was very focused on the weight loss and diet space. When I made the pivot for Episode 101, I shared the main reason why I wanted to shift to a health at every size focus but I didn’t fully share everything. You’ll hear that story today in my conversation with the absolutely wonderful Erin Murnane. Erin is a Dietician working in Australia and the UK with a virtual private practice that specializes in binge eating disorders. I connected so deeply with Erin and her work in our talk.

Friends welcome to another episode of Thrive Beyond Size. Many of you regular listeners may recall that this podcast went by a different name for the first one hundred episodes and had a different focus. It was called Mindful Weight Loss and was very focused on the weight loss and diet space. When I made the pivot for Episode 101, I shared the main reason why I wanted to shift to a health at every size focus but I didn’t fully share everything. You’ll hear that story today in my conversation with the absolutely wonderful Erin Murnane. Erin is a Dietician working in Australia and the UK with a virtual private practice that specializes in binge eating disorders. I connected so deeply with Erin and her work in our talk.

One of the things I struggled with during the pivot to Thrive Beyond Size was feeling deeply alone in this health at every size space. I felt lonely in the sea of intense talk about weight loss from every angle. Meeting Erin was a breath of fresh air as she shares a mindset and career focus similar to mine. She helps people who struggle with disordered eating from a non-diet and intuitive eating framework. Erin shares openly about her work, what motivated her to move in this direction, and information on how disordered eating can be approached. I suffered from binge eating disorder early in my medical residency and I keenly remember the feeling of shame. Erin wants to help people move past that shame into healing relationships with food and themselves. She is a marvellous person, understanding and knowledgeable, very upfront. This conversation brought back memories that I am happy now to share in the hopes that it helps others struggling as I was.
