When it comes to emotional eating, we often focus on our own feelings—identifying them, allowing them, and finding healthier ways to respond. But what about the emotions we pick up from others?

In this episode of Lose Your Cravings, Keysa dives into the overlooked role of carrying other people’s stress, anger, guilt, and disappointment—and how taking on emotions that aren’t yours can quietly fuel cravings, overeating, and the cycle of emotional eating.

Through compassionate insight, real-life examples, and a calming guided practice, you’ll learn how to:

• Recognize when you’re absorbing emotions that don’t belong to you
• Understand why this often leads to anxiety, guilt, and food cravings
• Use powerful phrases like “This is not mine to carry” and “Two things can be true” to set boundaries with compassion
• Explore reflective questions and journaling prompts that support food freedom and self-awareness
• Practice a short grounding exercise to release emotional weight in the moment

If you’ve ever felt like you’re eating to soothe feelings that aren’t even yours, this episode will help you build emotional resilience, create healthy boundaries, and find a calmer, non-diet path toward your relationship with food.
