In this episode, I am chatting with James, a man in his late 40s who has been struggling with food addiction for a while now. He openly talks about different hurdles in his life and what brought him to where he’s at today. James shares with us some of his personal thoughts and life events that you may find very relatable.

After my chat with James, I share some important facts to keep in mind about the subject of food addiction. I also provide 3 things that can be done to support a person who has a food addiction.
