| 0:00.0 | You are listening to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast with Kirsten Sarty, episode number 306. |
| 0:06.1 | Welcome to the Stop Binge Eating Podcast. It's time for you to end your food obsession and begin |
| 0:11.6 | feeling confident and in control around food. You are absolutely capable of eliminating |
| 0:17.2 | binge eating from your life. And I'm going to show you how by giving you simple |
| 0:20.9 | tools and insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get |
| 0:27.3 | to it. Hello, today I'm talking with you about feeling an urge to binge and panicking. |
| 0:36.7 | That urge discomfort comes over you. You feel compelled to |

| 1:39.2 | one time when I was in Charleston, South Carolina, with a friend of mine. And it was the last day we were there. |
| 1:45.3 | We were doing the last thing we were going to do before going to the airport to fly home, |
| 1:49.3 | just a quick stop. And I locked the keys in our rental car. I had rented our car not through a |
| 1:55.5 | usual rental car company, but through Turro, which is like Airbnb for cars. And I was panicking because I had no |
| 2:04.5 | idea how to get the keys. I also had no idea how the owner of the car could help me. I was scared |
