From Binge Eating to Balance - Stress Eating, Food Noise, Emotional Eating, Overeating, Food Addiction

Reaching for junk food after another chaotic, exhausting day? Craving peace but settling for snacks just to get by? So overwhelmed by the nightly dinner battle that you end up in the drive-thru again, even though you swore you’d cook? Sick of feeling out of control, numbing with food, and then regretting it? Whoa, flashback. I’ve been there. This podcast gives you real-life strategies to stop stress eating, find peace in your chaotic schedule, and ditch the dieting rollercoaster so you can finally feel more present in your life and with your family. Hey, I’m Hannah! Mom, wife, and busy Christian entrepreneur. And for most of my life, I’ve turned to food to cope with stress. I bounced between strict plans, emotional eating, and chasing quick fixes, always looking to the world for relief instead of real peace. I realized that if I wanted lasting change, I had to stop the binge eating and pursue freedom, God’s way. So I created a realistic, grace-filled plan that broke the cycle of stress eating and brought peace and balance back into my day. The yo-yo dieting stopped, the overwhelm lifted, and my relationships, especially with Jesus, began to thrive. If you’re ready to finally find rhythms of peace in your crazy, never-ending to-do list… Tired of numbing with food to cope and want real healing instead… Want lasting results that boost your health, without medication, and break the stress, eat, shame, repeat cycle… Then, friend, this show was made just for you. Go tell your family, “Mom needs a hot minute,” pop in those earbuds, and let’s hang out…snacks optional. Wanna hang out with me daily?
