A woman said a sentence to me on a call last week, and it's the one I hear more than any other: "I think I can probably do this myself." She'd spent decades and a fortune trying to fix her relationship with food alone. 

And I said six words back that changed the whole conversation: "Here's the thing. You already would have." 

Today's episode is about why "I can do it myself" is almost never a plan, and what it's actually protecting. 

This is an episode about the hidden cost of doing it alone, and what asking for help really is. 

Question to carry into your day:
What are you still trying to do alone that the evidence says needs another hand?
