The Emma Guns Show
Solo Episode | Ask Me Anything: Eating Disorders, Lifestyle Changes and Inspirational People.
•
There were so many questions sent in for November's Ask Me Anything that I decided to answer them in this month's solo episode. Thanks to everyone who took the time to write in!
Questions answered in this episode:
- What’s your best beauty product of 2023?
- What’s the most embarrassing beauty treatment you’ve ever had?
- What is something you’re doing in 2023 that you weren’t doing in 2022?
- Best way to get back on the wagon?
- Would you recommend tweakments?
- What are your thoughts and advice on fillers and botox? Should I continue?
- Biggest current challenge or goal and how you’re navigating to overcome or achieve it?
- In your adult life, what experience, book, and person has had the greatest impact?
- Complete Taylor Swift virgin, where should I begin?
- I know you love Skims but do you ever feel uncomfortable supporting such a grotesquely rich family?
- I want to read Brain over Binge because I know I have issues with food and a lot of what you’ve said about food taking up a lot of mental brain space really resonates, but I’m terrified it won’t have the same effect on me.
- I want 2024 to be the year I stop being lazy, start going to the gym and eat well. Any tips?
- I’m thinking of getting some dumbbells so I can work out at home, any suggestions for what weight I should start with?
- Are you still getting up early?
- I really respect your journey with coming to terms with food issues etc but I am disappointed you advocate for calories. It makes me think you’ve ultimately bought into diet culture so it’s less of a recovery and just another type of disorder.

Recovery isn't linear, but this 'blip' was one that I couldn't fend off with my usual tactics but I did manage to navigate it differently from when I was in the gripes of binge eating disorder.I hope sharing this makes someone else feel a little bit better or, at least, a little less alone.📰 I also wang on about hydration sachets in this episode including:Ancient & BraveHumantraWillpowders👗 In this video I'm wearing:Vieve Varsity Sweatshirt, £45.*contains affiliate links.📧 Contact me:office@emmaguns.com👓 Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:📱 https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/Maybe I don't need to be that organised?

Perhaps a little organised chaos is fine?📰 Let's also talk about the state of the world, but not for too long and how people seem to be getting less and less tolerant of each other.🧴 This really is a beautiful moisturiser. It might be a gel designed for combination to oily skin types, but I'm off the belief that anyone will enjoy the instant quench and comfort it gives skin.

14:05|✍🏼 Subscribe -- https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-emma-guns-show/id1102982843This could backfire terribly... | The Emma Guns Show📝 I had such a wonderful response to the most recent episodes about how to get on top of your health and fitness goals, but at the same time, I've noticed tonnes of content online that gives the impression that making lifestyle changes is really quite easy and just involves stopping doing one thing and starting doing another. And, in many cases, it involves doing all these things at one. I thought I'd poke fun at this a bit (let's see if it backfires) and hopefully engage some new listeners/viewers who might benefit from hearing a different, less idealistic but hopefully more helpful approach.📰 The Instagram I posted is here: 👗 In this video I'm wearing:Adanola Rib Racer Vest Top, £24.99.📧 Contact me:office@emmaguns.com👓 Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:📱 https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/The Instagram I posted is here:Getting on top of your health and fitness goals in 2025

Lots of people have been asking me about it and asking how they can find the motivation to get into a fitness and health routine, so in this episode, I share what has helped me.📰 I also take the time to discuss the excellent The Inkey List Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum, £15, that I devoted this Substack article.👗 In this video I'm wearing:Albaray Cosy Jumper, £69Free People Movement Ribbed Long-Sleeve Baby Tee, £44.*contains affiliate links.📧 Contact me:office@emmaguns.com👓 Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:📱 https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/
