Today's episode is raw, personal, and long overdue.

For most of my life, I didn't eat because I was hungry — I ate because I didn't know how else to soothe the stress, overwhelm, and emotions I didn't have language for yet. Food became my comfort, my reward, my escape, and at times… my emotional survival mechanism.

In this episode, I'm opening up about:

• The first moment emotional eating became a coping strategy

• How food became tied to love, comfort, and safety

• The patterns that carried through adulthood, motherhood, stress, and life transitions

• The moment I realized something deeper was happening

• And the mindset, nervous system tools, and emotional rewiring that helped me finally break the cycle

If you've ever eaten in secret, turned to food when you felt lonely, overwhelmed, or exhausted, or if you've ever felt shame around your eating habits — you are not alone.

Emotional eating isn't a character flaw or a lack of willpower. It's a coping mechanism.

And today we're bringing compassion, awareness, and healing to the conversation.

✨ If this resonates, send me a message — I'd love to hear your story.
