In this episode, I’m covering mindset shifts, hidden roadblocks, and powerful tools that can help you break free from deprivation thinking and finally cure your overeating habits. You’ll learn why self-compassion and the right support system are essential, what you need to know about blind spots that can keep you stuck, and what you can do to rewire your brain for freedom instead of restriction.
