102. It's Not Your Willpower, It's Your Hidden Hungers: What Actually Leads to Emotional Eating (and How to Overcome It) with Dr. Melissa McCreery


Listen Later

If you’ve ever raided the pantry after a long day and thought, “Why am I eating this? I’m not even hungry…” This episode is for you.

I sat down with Dr. Melissa McCreery, a psychologist and emotional eating expert, to unpack the real reason busy, high-achieving women feel out of control around food. And guess what? It’s not willpower. We talk hidden hungers, the emotional gaps no diet can fix and the tiny mindset shifts that change everything.

What if your cravings aren’t the problem, but the clues? Hit play to find out what your late-night snack might really be trying to tell you.
