June 23, 2026 Why You Really Overeat at Parties & BBQs (And How to Stop)
If you’ve ever gone into a summer party excited… but also thinking, “I’ll probably overeat like I usually do…” this episode is for you.
In this episode, you and I are breaking down the subtle thought that keeps you stuck in a cycle of overeating at social events, and why it has nothing to do with a lack of willpower.
You’ll hear how one small shift can completely change your experience around food at parties, barbecues, and summer events, without cutting out foods you love or trying to “be more disciplined.”
I also share a real client example of how she went from feeling out of control around food and alcohol… to feeling calm, in control, and still able to enjoy everything.
If you’re a woman in healthcare who wants to stop overeating at social events, feel more confident around food, and actually enjoy your weekends without guilt, this will open your eyes to what’s really going on.

June 18, 2026 Stress Eating Feels Like Stress Relief...But it's Not
If you’ve ever felt like eating helps you deal with stress, even just a little, this episode changes how you see that.
Because while stress eating can feel like relief in the moment… it’s often the very thing keeping you stuck, overwhelmed, and disconnected from what you actually need.
In this episode, you and I are looking at why using food to cope with stress doesn’t actually solve the stress, and how it can quietly make it worse over time.
More importantly, you’ll start to see what happens when you begin to unlink stress from food, and how that shift doesn’t just change your eating habits, but actually helps you feel less overwhelmed, more steady, and more in control overall.
If you’re a woman in healthcare dealing with stress, emotional eating, or feeling like food is your main way to cope, this will give you a completely different perspective.

May 28, 2026 Mindset Shift for Perfectionists Feeling Stressed About “Perfect” Eating Habits
Feel like you have to eat perfectly healthy to lose weight or have healthy eating habits?
This mindset sets you up for failure, because when you don't eat "perfectly" you think you've failed, which drains your energy and can lead to giving up.
So in this episode, I'm sharing a mindset shift you can implement immediately to help you eat healthier than you are now, while keeping you on track to make true progress with eating habits and weight loss.
Perfect if you're feeling stressed about your eating habits or if you're a woman in healthcare and "eating perfectly" isn't an option due to your job.
