If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle with food — eating for comfort, numbing, secretly shaming yourself afterwards — this episode is for you.

Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on emotional eating. Not from a place of surface advice or food psychology, but from lived experience — mine, and the hundreds of women I’ve supported.

I’ll share the three deeper reasons we emotionally eat, why compassion (not control) is the portal to change, and how your relationship with food might actually be pointing toward something you’re ready to feel.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know this isn’t about the food, but I don’t know where to begin,” this is your beginning.
