Tricia Nelson is here to heal your hunger. She developed an unhealthy relationship with food and alcohol early on, and by college, she was 50 pounds overweight. Dieting, exercise, 12-step, and even eating disorder therapy failed to offer long-term solutions. Finally, she realized she didn’t have a food problem—she had an emotional problem. Now recovered, Tricia has the experience and the research to help others heal their emotional eating. This conversation is raw but hopeful, and while it won’t cure an eating disorder, it will set you on the right path.
