It's Not About the Alcohol

EP140 How perfectionism fuels emotional eating with Amber Romaniuk


Listen Later

Are you tired of feeling trapped in a cycle of emotional eating and self-criticism?

Many high-achieving women believe that if they just had more willpower or stuck to stricter diets, they'd finally overcome their struggles with food and body image.

But this relentless pursuit of perfection leaves you exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from your own needs—leading to stress, burnout, and an even stronger reliance on food to cope.

The real issue isn't lack of discipline; it's the deep-rooted belief that your worth is tied to your productivity and appearance.

In today's episode, I'm joined by Amber Romaniuk, host of the No Sugarcoating Podcast, a digestive and hormone health expert. We’re talking about how to heal your mind so you can live in a body that thrives. 

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Is perfectionism secretly fueling your emotional eating?

  • The unexpected reason diets fail—and what to do instead.

  • Discover the hidden link between imposter syndrome and your cravings.

  • Stop wasting willpower: Discover the surprising path to food freedom.
