There’s always more on the plate than food.
For some of us, the chaos of the holidays isn’t about what we eat, it’s who we have to be around.
Emotional eating is often a subtle way of avoiding the expectations.
And then the guilt comes in after.

In this episode, we talk about what’s really happening behind the.”going back for seconds or thirds”

11/27/2025

For so many women, holiday overeating has nothing to do with food and everything to do with the emotional pressure the season brings.

When you’ve spent years holding yourself together, acting “fine,” absorbing everyone’s energy, and keeping the peace… even The holidays can feel like a test you have to pass.

And it makes perfect sense that you may find yourself thinking about food weeks before anything even begins.

Not because the meals are the problem but because your nervous system memory remembers what this season has required of you.

The pressure to smile.
The pressure to be “easy.”
The pressure to participate.
The pressure to ignore what you really feel or need.

Over time, those patterns turn emotional noise into food noise. Not because you’re weak but because you’ve been carrying more than your body can metabolize and it’s time to let that go 🤍

PS. I made something to support you through this season. A process that helps you understand your holiday triggers and build the internal safety that keeps you grounded, connected, and free from the cycles that used to pull you under.

Even if you didn’t watch The Biggest Loser,
you probably felt its ripple effect.

Before and afters. Public weigh-ins.
The idea that changing your body would fix your life.

But what if it didn’t?

In this episode of Emotional Eating Unwrapped, we explore how that era shaped our beliefs and how to reclaim your body, without performing for anyone.

You get to the size you always wanted.
You hear the praise.

But something still doesn’t feel right.
That’s the part no one talks about;
when the goal is met, the body has changed, but your relationship with yourself hasn’t.

In this episode of Emotional Eating Unwrapped, I talk about what we’re really seeking beneath the goal weight and how to find it.

11/22/2025

For many women, especially those who’ve carried a lot emotionally, holding onto weight isn’t about “lack of discipline” it’s tied to a deep need for safety, protection, and control.

And when your body has learned that being smaller brought judgment, pressure, attention, or vulnerability you weren’t ready for, holding weight can actually feel safer than letting it go.

Even if you’re on a GLP-1.
Even if your appetite is lower.
Even if the scale is shifting.

Your system remembers every moment when being seen felt risky… and it makes perfect sense that your body would hold on, even when a part of you desperately wants to feel lighter, more confident, or more comfortable just being.

You might have learned to disconnect from your body, to carry everyone else’s emotional load, to stay strong instead of having actual needs.

And when that pattern becomes familiar, when self-protection gets coded as survival, it’s natural that losing weight can feel threatening, not freeing.

You can’t earn healing with weight loss.

PS. I made something to help you with this. It’s a gentle, powerful step by step process that walks you through the emotional and nervous system shifts your body needs to feel safe letting go of weight - whether you’re on a GLP-1 or not.

You can’t shame someone into loving themselves.
The show made it look like weight loss was just about discipline.

But for so many people, it planted a deeper message:
If you can’t keep it off, maybe you are the failure.

This week, we unpack how that belief still shapes our relationship with food, effort, and enoughness.

In this episode of Emotional Eating Unwrapped, we share what that era really cost us; emotionally, socially, even spiritually.

I created a powerful step by step training that shows you why emotional overeating can feel like an oral fixation and how to rewire the deeper nervous system and relational patterns that keep you stuck in the same cycle.

I can’t wait for you to finally feel the relief, clarity, and inner power you’ve been craving. 🤍

You’re not failing - you’re evolving.

And the uncomfortable feelings you’re having are proof you’re FINALLY healing the real root of your food and eating patterns👏🏻

I created a powerful step-by-step process to show you
exactly what those uncomfortable phases mean, and how to move through them without spiraling, quitting, or running back to old habits.

I can’t wait for you to feel ( and see) the freedom on the other side. 🤍

What if hunger isn’t the problem, it’s the messenger?
When you turn it down, you turn down joy too.

Because the same fire that drives appetite also fuels passion, creativity, and love.
So I’ll ask you, do you want quiet or do you want depth?

Do you want smaller or do you want more of yourself?

In this episode of Emotional Eating Unwrapped, I talk about how to reconnect to your natural rhythm so you can feel the full spectrum of being alive again.

You are not broken around food, you’re just carrying too much on your own.

And one brave shift can change everything👏🏻

I created a powerful training that shows you the exact identity + nervous system shift I used to stop letting food run my life… and it’s the same shift that’s now helping thousands of women finally feel safe in their bodies again and excited about eating.

I can’t wait for you to feel (and see) what’s possible for you. 🤍

What if peace isn’t the absence of cravings but the presence of vitality?

I work with women on GLP-1s who tell me, “I don’t think about food anymore.”
And at first, that feels like relief. But soon, they realize they don’t feel much of anything.

If you’ve spent years trying to quiet the food noise, maybe it’s time to wake up your appetite for life instead.
The kind that brings color back into your skin and light into your eyes.

In this episode of Emotional Eating Unwrapped, I share how to find balance without dimming your emotional range.

Thinking about food doesn’t mean you’re out of control, it means you’re human.

But if you’ve spent years dieting or policing your appetite, even a simple food thought can feel like you’re one second from going over the edge.

Not because the thought is dangerous…
but because your nervous system learned to treat being excited for something like a threat.

So you spiral:
“Why am I thinking about this again?”
“Does this mean I can’t trust myself?”
“Am I slipping?”

You’re not.

Your body is just tired of being monitored.

When you stop assuming your food thoughts mean something is wrong with you, they have less power.

They take up less fear in your brain.

They become something neutral instead of dramatic because you have way better and more valuable things to do with your energy.
