174: How to Break the Cycle of Overeating on Autopilot

I’m diving into what I call the “overeating boomerang”—a hidden mindset trap that keeps smart, capable women swinging between trying to be superhuman and using food to numb out. You’ll hear the real-life experiences (with names changed for privacy) of women inside my coaching program who realized they were stuck in this pattern, and how we began shifting it. If you've been demanding that your tired, burned-out self just push through or "do better"—and if you're ready for a more compassionate, sustainable way out of emotional eating—this episode is for you

In this episode, I cover:

• Why high-achieving women often find themselves eating on autopilot—especially at certain times of day
• The hidden mindset trap I call the “overeating boomerang”
• How denying your needs and emotions creates a cycle that leads to emotional eating
• Real-life examples from women in Your Missing Peace and the ways they’re breaking the boomerang cycle
• Simple but powerful experiments you can try today to begin changing your cycle with food
