What to Do the Morning After a Binge (The Anti-Diet Recovery Protocol)
You wake up and it hits you before you're even fully conscious, the dread, the memories, the wrappers, the promises to "start fresh Monday." If you've ever lived through a binge hangover, this episode is for you.
In this deeply honest conversation, Nic walks you through exactly what to do the morning after a binge, not how to detox, restrict, or punish your way back to "good." This is the gentle, science-backed recovery protocol that actually breaks the binge-restrict cycle for good. In this episode: Why your instinct to "fix it" is the exact thing keeping you stuck What's really happening in your nervous system the morning after The 3-layer recovery framework: Body, Mind, and Day Why eating breakfast is the single most important thing you can do (yes, really) How to interrupt the shame spiral before it triggers the next binge The 5 things to do today, and the one thing you must NOT do Why a single binge is not the problem (and what actually is) Nic shares from her own recovery, binge-free since 2019, and offers the unsexy, revolutionary truth: healing is built in moments of gentleness, not punishment.
If you've been waking up trapped in the guilt-restrict-binge loop, this is your permission slip and your roadmap out.

You've eaten fine all day. You're not even hungry. Then 9pm hits and you're standing in front of the pantry like it owes you money.
Everyone's talking about "food noise" right now. TikTok's obsessed with it, Oprah did a special on it, and it's basically the tagline for every GLP-1 ad you scroll past. But here's what nobody's telling you: half of what gets called food noise is just... hunger. And the other half is diet culture, dressed up in a scarier name so it can sell you a fix.
