Welcome to the Brain Over Binge podcast, where you learn a simple, brain-based approach to ending binge eating.

I'm Catherine Hanson, your host. I'm the author of Brain Over Binge and the Brain Over Binge Recovery Guide.

It's been a little longer than usual since I've released an episode, and some of that is just due to the

challenges of life, and some of that is because I've been working on a practical new resource

but one thing I've heard for many listeners is that it's hard

to know where to start, or how to find the right episodes for your personal struggles. And that makes a

over time, if you're just jumping in now, I can see how it would feel a bit overwhelming.

I started trying to help people with this on Instagram, and if you follow me on Instagram,

you may have seen that I started posting from time to time asking people to comment or

direct message me their questions, and then I would send a podcast episode or episodes directly

to them to help with that question.
