EP 217: From Ankle-Deep to ALL IN ~ The #1 Question to Ask Yourself to Find the Courage to Fully Commit to Your Recovery
Manage episode 483822677 series 3401610
In this powerful episode of the Her Best Self podcast, Lindsey explores what it truly means to go ALL IN on your recovery journey. Inspired by a church sermon on faith, she unpacks the different levels of commitment in recovery—from ankle-deep hesitation to full blown surrender—and challenges you to identify where you're holding back. If you're tired of partial results and ready to experience true freedom from disordered eating, this episode offers both inspiration and practical next steps for going ALL IN on yourself and your healing.
What You'll Learn- The four levels of commitment in recovery: ankle-deep, knee-deep, waist-deep, and ALL IN
- How staying in your comfort zone blocks your healing progress
- The exhausting reality of wearing the "eating disorder mask" and the freedom that comes from removing it
- Practical examples of what going ALL IN looks like in everyday recovery
- Biblical wisdom that supports full surrender in the recovery process
- One tangible action step to move toward going ALL IN this week
On Partial Commitment (3:12) "Partial commitment yields partial results. To experience the full freedom that recovery offers, you have to go ALL IN. That means complete surrender. Complete trust. Complete willingness to feel ALL of your feelings without using food or exercise to numb them."
On Getting Out of Your Own Way (5:45) "How often are YOU getting in the way of your own recovery? How often are you blocking your own healing because you're trying to control everything? Because you're not willing to trust the process? Because you're holding onto the false comfort of your eating disorder?"
On Removing the Mask (8:30) "The eating disorder has pulled a mask over you - a false identity that you might have worn for years or even decades... Going ALL IN means pulling away that mask and saying, 'This is who I really am. This is what I'm really struggling with. This is what I really need.'"
On Redirecting Energy (10:15) "When you go ALL IN on recovery, you get to redirect all that energy toward actually living your life. Toward your relationships, your passions, your purpose. Toward the woman God created you to be."
Scripture Referenced- Romans 12:2 – "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."
- Proverbs 3:5-6 – "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."
- Psalm 139:14 – "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
