23: Binge Eating: The Most Common Eating Disorder No One Talks About

Welcome to The Life of Bryony, where we explore life’s messier moments.

MY GUEST THIS WEEK: JESS GRIFFITHS

This week, I’m joined by the brilliant Jess Griffiths, an eating disorder expert who brings both personal and professional insights to our chat. We talk about the challenges of recovery, how self-compassion plays a key role, and why hope is always possible—even when it feels like the hardest thing to hold on to.

Jess and I touch on the pressures of perfectionism, the importance of being kind to ourselves, and practical tips for building resilience. Whether you’re facing an eating disorder yourself, supporting someone you love, or just trying to be gentler with yourself, I really think this conversation will resonate with you.
