#039: Real Talk with Michelle Petties - Author of “Leaving Large: The Stories of a Food Addict”, Speaker, Master Food Story Finder, and Experiential Eating Expert
“You’re not saying no to french fries; you’re saying yes to the body and health you want.” - Michelle Petties
This Real Talk presents a generous serving of food for thought around how we view food, why we eat what we eat, and our underlying food stories that dictate our food habits and behavior.
I had the immense pleasure of chatting with Michelle Petties - Author of “Leaving Large: The Stories of a Food Addict”, Speaker, Master Food Story Finder, and Experiential Eating Expert.
After gaining and losing 700 plus pounds over four decades, Michelle discovered that the “secret” to finding freedom from food addiction is in the “story” behind the events, experiences and memories that formed her beliefs, attitude, and habits about food, eating and hunger.
Michelle stresses the importance of understanding that we manage food and have relationships with people (not the other way around), and also equips us with 3 instrumental questions we can use to gauge if we’re eating for the right reasons.
Michelle is an incredible inspiration, and one of my favorite parts from this chat was when she shared about how indulging in food to suppress emotion ultimately blocks us from stepping into our full power and sharing our unique gift with the world.
This Real Talk invites you to assess your perception of food, and the unique Food Stories you carry. I’d love for you to listen through the episode and share one of your food beliefs if you’re comfortable - there’s power in community and connection!

With so much love & gratitude,
