From Food Guilt to Business Clarity The Hidden Link Between Cravings & Capacity | Laura Banks

Is food guilt quietly draining your capacity to show up in parts of your life and business?

In this episode, we explore what cravings, restriction, and shame around food might be trying to tell you not just about your body, but about your business.

I’m joined by integrative nutrition health coach Laura Banks, who shares her personal journey from hiding candy wrappers in her classroom to helping women heal their relationship with food in a way that actually increases clarity, consistency, and energy.

Together, we unpack the hidden emotional link between what you eat, how you feel, and how you function as a creative, a business owner, or someone simply trying to hold it all together.

You’ll learn how to:

• Overcome being stuck in a cycle of “starting over”.
• Stop being burned out by restriction & trying to “get it right”.
• Create momentum in both your health and business routines.

This conversation will help you understand why. And what to do next. Because this isn’t about willpower—it’s about capacity. And when you heal the pressure you place on yourself with food, you unlock space for self-trust, more aligned decisions, and sustainable progress.
