If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I stop emotional eating, even when I’m following a diet?”—this episode is for you. Diets may help you lose weight, but they don’t teach you how to heal your relationship with food. And that’s the missing piece! In this episode, I unpack why diets focus on restriction rather than emotional well-being, and what you can do instead to feel truly in control around food—without guilt, frustration, or endless willpower battles.
What You'll Learn in this Episode:
✨ The eye-opening moment that changed the way I experience food forever
✨ Why diets focus on control but don’t address emotional eating at its root
✨ The power of tuning into your body’s real needs instead of following rigid rules
✨ How reconnecting with food in a mindful way can bring more joy, ease, and freedom
✨ The surprising truth about hunger, portion sizes, and self-trust
If you’ve ever felt like a failure because you couldn’t “stick to the plan,” I want you to know—it’s not your fault. The truth is, dieting sets you up to feel out of control. But when you shift your mindset, you can break free from food guilt and reclaim your confidence.
