  • Summary

  • *Trigger warning: trauma, disordered eating and abuse* Join us on this powerful episode as I sit down with Dr. Connie Stapleton, a seasoned bariatric psychologist with over 35 years of experience. In a candid and heartwarming conversation, Shea and Connie share their individual journeys of overcoming addiction, childhood trauma, and disordered eating. Laughter and tears intertwine as we discuss coping strategies, resilience, and the importance of mental health in the process of healing. This episode goes beyond the physical aspects of bariatric surgery, offering insights into the complexities of relationships post-recovery. Connie provides expert guidance on building healthy connections, addressing the emotional aftermath of addiction, and fostering self-love.
