Beyond Mom

During the past few months of more home time, more cooking, more food, more personal habits in clear view- we’ve had the unique opportunity to watch our patterns and our emotions with deep observation. We may have known, but now see even more clearly, that most of us have a complicated relationship with sugar and many of us would like a break up. The process of breaking up with sugar isn’t simply about sugar- it’s a deep exploration of SELF and that’s what THIS conversation is all about!

Welcome to the podcast Molly Carmel. She is a leading eating disorder and addictions therapist, founder of the NYC clinic The Beacon and the author of the book Breaking up with Sugar. She is deeply passionate about helping people from all forms of life break free from a destructive relationship with food and dieting.

Her personal path has informed her professional path and she has found herself as what she calls a “wounded healer” put on this earth to help others change their lives.

In this conversation Randi and Molly dive into:

-Molly’s complicated history- the hardships she endured at a young age with the passing of her father and how it sent her down a path turning to food and sugar to numb and soothe her. 

-From dieting, to suicidal depression to weight loss camp- how hitting rock bottom pulled her toward the quest to heal.

-Why it took breaking up with sugar to change her life. From detoxing to serving others.

-What you can expect from Molly’s book Breaking up with Sugar. What it means to take out aggressive sugars and the truth about artificial sugars. The endless health benefits that come from breaking up with sugar- from healing inflammation to type 2 diabetes and infertility.

-Molly’s spiritual journey to love herself and her relationship with food. What “doing the work” really entails and why the fight is worth it.

-The catharsis she experienced when she decided to get to know her deceased father.
