The Midlife Feast

#129 - Breaking the Binge Cycle in Midlife with Stefanie Michele


Listen Later

Get ready to rethink what you know about binge eating and food addiction in this eye-opening conversation with health coach, occupational therapist, body image, and binge eating coach, Stefanie Michele. With her decades-long journey with binge eating, Stefanie shares insights to help break the stigma around it. You'll learn why binge eating is often more about emotional suppression and dietary restriction than willpower alone.

Stefanie and I unpack common myths from wellness culture, like labeling food—especially sugar—as addictive, and how rigid diet rules can worsen our relationship with food. This episode encourages self-compassion and guilt-free eating as steps toward recovery while exploring the deeper psychological factors at play. 

Join us to challenge food addiction myths, let go of restrictive eating cycles, and move toward a balanced, fulfilling approach to food and well-being.
