Emotional Eating, Ditching Food Rules and Why You Don’t Need to Earn Your Brownie (and Never Did) with Jess Suchan, Holistic Health & Mindset Coach


Listen Later

 274: “I gradually started adding back in fear foods. It wasn't like I ate carbs at every meal because that was the thing I was scared of. I would add in like carrots, which is crazy to say! I was scared of carrots. So I would add in carrots at lunch or half a sweet potato at dinner or half a slice of bread. And I would see, oh the world didn't end. That actually satisfied me longer. I'm happier." - Jess Suchan

Ever feel like eating a buttery, flakey croissant means you’ve committed a crime and could go straight to jail? In this episode, Chelsea sits down with holistic health coach Jess Suchan to chat about food freedom, carb fears, and why you don’t need to earn your brownie with 40 min on the Stairmaster or a grueling Barry’s Bootcamp class.

Episode themes:

  • Ditching the all-or-nothing diet mindset and building trust with your body again
  • Why following someone else’s health plan is like wearing their prescription glasses
  • How fear of carbs and “food morality” are silently draining your joy (and your energy)
  • The real science behind digestion, stress, and serotonin — yes, carbs boost your mood!!! Rejoice!
  • Why emotional eating isn’t the villain — and what “soul food” really means

This episode is your official permission slip to stop micromanaging every bite. BYE BYE tracking every possible macro, calorie and barcode. If you’re still scared of cheesy pasta or just tired of calorie math at bottomless brunch, Jess offers a softer, smarter way forward: build trust, invite joy, and eat the freaking croissant!!!
