0:00.0	Hello and welcome. This is Jesse Jean and you're listening to the Dear Body Podcast.
0:07.6	I spent 10 years stuck in the diet binge cycles hating my body and ending women who seem to have it all because I never felt enough.
0:16.0	And what I discovered in my journey to food freedom, radical self-love, and becoming an eating psychology coach
0:21.3	is this. You can either live your life at war with your mind or learn to work in sync with it.

1:24.5	I want individuals, couples to understand the power and the benefits of
1:29.1	additional support therapy coaching. And so I shared that and I got a lot of questions as to what's
1:34.8	going on. Are you sure you're okay? And so I thought I would record a podcast episode talking about
1:40.1	why my husband and I are in therapy despite having a marriage that's thriving.
1:46.3	Like, why do we choose to go to therapy?
1:48.1	And if you haven't listened to our couple's Q&A podcast, and we recorded that a while ago,
