178: Why Willpower and GLP-1s Won’t Fix Emotional Eating

In this episode, I’m sharing five things every smart woman needs to know about emotional eating. If food still feels like a struggle even though you’ve tried all the things, a better understanding of emotional eating might help you understand why. I’ll explain why emotional eating isn’t always obvious, how it shows up in ways you might miss, and what you actually need to do instead of relying on willpower or control.

Here’s what I cover in this episode:

• How emotional eating can be happening even if you don’t think it is
• Why willpower, structure, and being "strong" don’t lead to peace with food
• What GLP-1s and food plans often miss about emotional eating
• What it actually takes to stop the cycle of stress and comfort eating
• How to stop blaming yourself and start using a smarter, more compassionate approach
