The Emotional Eating Evolution Podcast

Today I want to share the truth about emotional eating recovery that no one shares.

So if you've been trying to heal your emotional eating and it feels like it's taking forever and you just can't seem to shift it, you're not alone.

This is definitely a process. It doesn't happen overnight. It's not linear. It's not quick, but it is so worth it when you get to the other side.

Let’s dive in deeper...

Emotional eating is not really a food issue. It's a trauma response.

If you've ever felt out of control with food and emotionally eat, it can feel like there is an issue with food because it’s what you can’t seem to stop doing.

These sudden urges come on…and you can't seem to control them.

What if I told you it's not really about the food that you're going to and grasping onto? It's more about what&...

What I notice when I'm working with a lot of women is that on the surface, everything looks like it's going well: you might be successful, you might be in the job you want, you might have all of the things on the surface.

It can be really frustrating. And honestly, there's so much more going on under the surface.

So let’s dive in and explore what actually shifts this pattern:

A lot of the time, when we struggle with emotional eating, we believe the problem is a lack of control around food.

But it's not really about the food.

I want to invite you to consider: what if this is something you learned as a child because your emotions weren’t met with care?

In this video, I’m going to explore why emotional eating isn’t about controlling food, what’s really happening underneath the surface, how hea...

Are you struggling with emotional eating and wondering if anxiety might be playing a role?

In this episode, we’ll explore the deep connection between anxiety and emotional eating, something I often see in the clients I work with.

Many people don’t realize how day-to-day stress, worry, or even underlying anxiety (even when managed with medication) can drive automatic patterns with food.

If you've ever found yourself tur...

Are you constantly wondering, “Am I actually hungry… or is this emotional eating?”

When you’re an emotional eater, you are usually trying to control food. And you don’t know if you’re actually hungry, snacking, or emotional eating. This can be really frustrating.

But you need to be able to discern this.

Hey love, when I was on my journey with emotional eating, I couldn’t see how body acceptance tied into my emotional eating, but I knew that every time I looked in the mirror I was super critical. I didn’t say the kindest things to myself, and it was debilitating.

As I worked on body acceptance, my body started to shift. I had more energy, I wanted to move more, and eventually, over the years, I liked my body and started to love myse...

Let’s talk about self-sabotage because that’s what it can feel like when you emotionally eat.

Like:

• Why do I keep screwing things up?
• Why do I keep binging?
• Why do I keep eating when I don’t want to?
• Why am I sabotaging myself?

• Why…?

And it can feel really harsh.

It all boils down to: “What’s wrong with me?”

Trauma is the result of feeling unresolved after an event. When something feels unresolved, it means there are emotions we haven’t processed. There’s a lingering discomfort or distress tied to that experience.

When I work with clients, I often find that emotional eating is connected to these unresolved emotions. Emotional eating becomes a coping mechanism—we use food to deal with uncomfortable emotions because we don’t know how ...

So – no one is really talking about some of the biggest mistakes women make when it comes to emotional eating—because the so-called “solutions” being sold to us are positioned as the magic fix that will help us stop eating all the time and finally reach our goals.

But here’s the truth: they won’t help you get to the root of the issue.

Emotional eating is multi-layered and complex— I’m sharing this not to scare you, but to emp...
