In this episode of Trich Talks, Barbara sits down with Heidi (@thelifeofatrichster) to talk honestly about relapse, recovery, and what it means to keep showing up for yourself. After nearly five years of being pull-free, Heidi recently experienced a relapse. Together, they explore the emotions that can come with returning to pulling after such a long period of time and how Heidi is choosing to move forward with self-compassion instead of shame.Heidi shares how she is bouncing back, reconnecting with herself, and continuing to show up not only for her own recovery, but for the BFRB community she cares so deeply about. This conversation is an important reminder that a relapse does not erase your progress, your growth, or everything you’ve learned along the way. Healing isn’t about being perfect. It’s about continuing to show up.—Living with a BFRB isn’t about willpower, it’s about awareness.The Keen2 by HabitAware gently vibrates to help you notice pulling or picking in the moment, so you can pause and choose what comes next.
