If you’ve been struggling with disordered eating for most of your life, you likely already know that there’s something deeper going on that you’re not seeing.

My most valuable skill is being able to identify the invisible reasons you keep getting stuck, and to teach you how to become permanently unstuck.

The areas we’ll cover this week, on the podcast, have affected every type of disordered eating I’ve ever seen. By shifting these invisible patterns, we’ve been able to help people heal binge eating, emotional eating, food addiction, and weight obsession.

We’ll sit down together to go through 7 invisible areas that keep people stuck ... that are 100% necessary to shift in order to end disordered eating permanently.

Make sure you take notes, because many of our clients have at least 3 or 4 of these patterns (in fact, many have had all 7), without even realizing it. Once you can identify your own invisible patterns that are keeping you stuck, you’ll finally be in a position to change them for good!

I’ve also shifted all of these patterns myself in my own life, and I’ll give you some personal examples so you can see how you might apply them to your life too.

I’m bringing in Mindset Expert Shahar Kovetz to join me … he has coached me through each one of these 7 mindset shifts personally while I was ending my disordered eating, and has helped our clients do the same in their paths too.

Our #1 tool to end compulsive binge eating and food-addict behavior is going to be revealed in great detail this week, on the podcast.

The good news is, it’s already within you, you have access to it at any time, it’s free, and you’ll have it until the moment you die. I’m talking about your BREATH.

What the heck does your breath have to do with your binges?

A lot more than you may realize! Actually, this is the FIRST tool that we teach every single one of our private clients, without exception. (I’ve never coached a client without this tool.) This one tool can change the way you relate to food completely … even if you can’t see how YET. ;-)

That’s why I've brought in Breath Expert Dani Mae, Founder of BreathGuidance, to lay out exactly how this works, and how you can use your own breath as an incredibly effective tool for food freedom.

We’ll cover:

- The nature of binges … how to handle the URGE (that compulsive feeling to eat) and where the breath comes into play

- How to use the breath to rewire your brain and heal your relationship with food

- How this one tool influences your physical body, including your metabolism, your fat-burning abilities, your internal organs, your brain, your stress levels, and other health benefits

- How you can start applying this to your life now, so you can start to heal your relationship with food immediately

I hope you enjoy this episode!

I used to say, “If I could just learn to treat food as fuel and not pleasure, I wouldn’t have issues with food anymore.”

Now that I’m on the other side of food freedom, I’ve seen the opposite is true. Pleasure is the solution ― not the problem. The problem is when we keep eating to the point where pleasure turns into discomfort or pain.

When you learn to eat for enjoyment, pleasure, and satisfaction, it helps the binges go away on their own, without your willpower or any kind of force to try to stop eating.

“But if I get too much pleasure, won’t I want to eat MORE?” We hear this question a lot too, so this is what we’ll be covering in this week’s podcast, along with how to eat so you’re TRULY satisfied.

It can feel impossible to break the binge cycle when you’re speaking a totally different language than your body. And we’ve discovered that most people who struggle with binge eating don’t even know they’re speaking the wrong language!

This episode of the podcast will be all about learning to communicate effectively with your body, so you can stop the binge cycle all together.

Think of it this way: if you’re on the same team as someone, will you accomplish more by communicating effectively and working together? Or by trying to control them?

Strong leaders listen to their team members, rather than trying to control them.

The same is true when it comes to you and your body.

When you try to control your weight with diets, weight loss programs, or food rules, at a certain point, REBELLION happens. You “fall off the wagon,” binge, and the cycle starts again. Just like how if you try to control someone else, they might rebel too.

So instead of trying to control or manipulate your weight, what other option do you have?

Teamwork. Instead of you and your body working against each other, you work together. As a team.

And what do good teams do? They listen! They communicate. To be a good team member to your body, you’ll need to learn to speak it’s language.

During this episode, we discuss both the mindset shift AND practical steps to create healthy communication with your body, so you can end the binge cycle and enjoy a peaceful relationship with food for the rest of your life.

In this episode of the podcast we explain how it is 100% possible and doable to end the binge cycle without a single food restriction.

We’ve noticed that while many programs and coaches also promote “no restriction”, it’s rare to see genuine delivery on this promise. For example, just the other day I saw a coach selling her program saying, “Zero food restrictions! All you have to do is eat certain foods in moderation and only at the appropriate times!”

How are “eating certain foods in moderation” and “eating only at certain times” NOT restrictions? ;-)

(By the way, we aren’t at all against people using other methods, but the point is it’s misleading for someone to promote that while introducing hidden restrictions. I don’t believe most professionals do this with bad intentions — it’s possible that some may not even have this level of awareness with their own eating, so it would be impossible for them to teach it to someone else.)

When we say zero food restrictions, we mean it. And here’s what that looks like:

- All foods are allowed, even trigger foods. There is no meal plan or rules you need to follow about what you can and can’t eat. (We’ll explain more about the nuances of how this works in the livestream itself.)

- You do not restrict your portion sizes or try to control, manipulate, count, or weigh how much you eat. Instead, you learn the natural skill of body listening so you can eat in a way that feels good, not bad.

- You don’t set rules for yourself about when you can eat or what is considered to be an “appropriate time.” Instead, you learn to listen to and trust yourself, so you don’t need to rely on someone else’s rule or prescribed schedule for you to be successful.

We recognize that very few people teach this, so we are getting more specific in what we’re talking about here in this episode of the podcast.

This component is 100% critical if you want to end the restrict/binge cycle, so we’re dedicating our entire talk to this topic.

Join me and Shahar for this episode, specifically on how to genuinely end your disordered eating without restricting your food at all. For real.

Our focus in this episode of the podcast is; “Does weight obsession make you fatter?”

We speak with hundreds of people each year who are struggling with weight and binge eating. Nearly 100% have tried multiple diets or meal plans in that year, and often decades of diets before that.

We’ve found that the people who always gain the weight back are the people who:

- Weigh themselves frequently

- Think about weight all the time

- Look at foods as “good” or “bad”

- Criticize themselves while looking in the mirror

- Are always trying to lose weight

- Sabotage themselves as they get closer to their goal weight

In this week’s talk, our mindset coach Shahar is going to take us a few layers deeper into this issue for an in-depth look at why obsession with weight can take you farther away from your goals, and what you can do to make sure your weight loss story has a happy ending.

We’ll discuss:

- What is weight obsession and how to know if you’re struggling with it

- What are the tricks the mind plays to keep you in the cycle of weight gain

- How can you find your ideal weight without focusing on weight at all?

- How you can have complete food freedom without sabotaging your weight

- Why we teach our clients to stop focusing on the scale, and why it works

This brain rewiring technique is a game-changer.

We’ve given many talks on the actual strategy we use to end binge eating and food addiction (which we’ll also cover briefly in this podcast) but the main focus will be on how to EXPEDITE your progress, so you can experience food freedom as quickly and easily as possible.

I’ll specifically be going over one core technique that we teach ALL our clients, starting on their Day 1, that expedites their progress faster than anything else. I’ll teach you that technique in detail during this talk.

I’m rarely attracted to quick fixes, but I’ve noticed that when you go through a tried and true system properly, the results do come more quickly. For us, the difference has been ending binge eating in weeks, rather than many months or years (or decades).

Most people think it needs to take years, but it really doesn’t when you’ve got the right techniques in place.

In this week’s podcast, we’re going to talk about simple practices you can use to rewire your brain so your progress comes faster than ever. That means:

- Feeling more free around food, without worry of losing control

- Being able to have any food in the house without fear

- Living your life without a single food rule (and knowing you don’t need them to control yourself)

- Enjoying food more, without trying to eat less

- Feeling more successful and beating yourself up less

- Enjoying the ride! :-)

I’ll spend most of the podcast on this core technique and why it works, and how to use it in conjunction with the other steps we teach our clients.

What if your fear of failure is holding you back from ending binge eating once and for all? (Or what if a fear of success is a hidden puzzle piece of your self-sabotage problem?)

We’ve noticed that even when people have everything they need to succeed, the fear of failure can lead very quickly to self-sabotage. And if you have an “all or nothing” personality, it can feel even worse, leading to more binges in the long run.

This week’s podcast is led by our food freedom mindset coach, Shahar, who has coached our clients through countless “aha moments” as they shift from binge eating to food freedom. He’ll help you understand the crucial mindset shifts necessary to not only overcome the fear of failure, but also the hidden fear of success, and the self-sabotage that has kept you stuck.
