Our first episode on the symptoms of underearning sparked a lot of interest. In this follow-up, we take a closer look at the solution offered by Underearners Anonymous (UA). In the interest of time, we do not cover the foundational tools of all 12 Step programs, i.e., the steps, attending meetings, sponsorship, and service. Rather, we focus on the tools specific to UA and how they support recovery from underearning.

Excited to share this episode on chapter 3 "About Eating Disorders". This recording is longer than usual, so I did my best to edit out long pauses. Hopefully, it doesn't ruin the flow. I'm extremely grateful to Lynda and Max for their invaluable contributions. 
Here is some more information on disassociation and eating disorders and intermittent disassociating.

This year has been especially challenging as my chronic illness, the stressful sociopolitical environment, and my aging organs are all Venn diagramming. This episode is a voice memo to a friend about what it feels like to experience joy while walking through what often feels like a truly desolate wasteland.
I'll add that within my small recovery community, I personally know 16 people who are experiencing—or have experienced—serious health issues. I don't think that's a coincidence, and there's plenty to learn about the connection. For now, I simply want to thank my recovery community for always providing me a safe place to land, and for the meetings that create floating docks in the ocean of life.
p.s. I found the Grace Coddington clip I reference (incorrectly) and added it to the end.
