Afraid of Spiraling After the Holidays? Do This One Thing First.

The days after the holidays can feel unsettling, especially if you’ve ever found yourself swinging between restriction and “throwing it all out the window” when it comes to food.

If you’re feeling anxious about losing control, gaining weight, or starting another all-or-nothing reset in January, this episode is for you.

In this short, grounding conversation, I share one simple, non-overwhelming focus that can dramatically reduce cravings, quiet food noise, and help you feel more stable and in control—starting today.

This isn’t about dieting, starting over, or forcing perfection.

We’ll explore:

• Why post-holiday spirals aren’t a character flaw—but a biological pattern
• How under-fueling quietly fuels cravings, urges, and evening binges
• The overlooked role protein plays in calming food noise and emotional eating
• How stabilizing your body creates more emotional and mental space to respond—not react
• A practical “yes-and” approach that allows indulgence without losing control

I also share a real-life example of how prioritizing protein helped me enjoy pizza and dessert—without guilt, shame, or spiraling—by working with my body instead of against it.

If you want to move into the new year feeling steadier, calmer, and more self-trusting around food—this episode will help you take that first step.
