“There have been so many times I have been listening to this podcast and nodding my head, responding out loud (awkwardly, in hindsight), thinking I’m talking to someone who is about to be my best friend because we have so many weird, nuanced things in common. Then it hits me again that the podcast is Hard Feelings and the voice is Jeannette McCurdy and that it’s not my personal best friend, though I wish she was. I can’t explain how much I connect to this podcast and how helpful it has been to me—especially during this period of time that I finally have a tiny, tenuous thread of eating disorder recovery for the first time in my 34 years. I feel like that thread could be unraveled at anytime by basically anything that comes at me day to day. When I listen to this podcast, I feel like at least today I have enough armor to make it through.
Thank you for existing.”
