Episode 229: Why “Knowing What to Do” Isn’t Enough to Stop Emotional Eating


Listen Later

Do you feel like food takes up way more space in your mind than it should even when you “know what to do”?


In this episode of the Food Freedom Podcast, Mary breaks down why emotional eating, binge eating, and food obsession are not caused by a lack of willpower. Instead, they’re driven by deeper emotional patterns like perfectionism, guilt, self-judgment, and using control as a coping mechanism.


If you’re stuck in the exhausting cycle of doing well for a while, then feeling like everything falls apart overnight, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening beneath the surface and why trying harder only keeps you trapped.


Mary shares both personal insight from decades of recovery and professional experience coaching women toward food sobriety, self-trust, and lasting peace with food.


If you’re tired of the all-or-nothing mindset and ready for a more compassionate, psychology-based approach to emotional eating recovery, this episode is for you.
