Have you ever caught yourself eating, not because you’re hungry, but because you’re overwhelmed, sad, stressed, or going through a hard season?

You’re not alone.

In today’s episode of Isn't She Powerful, I’m responding to a message from a listener, Michelle, who said:

“I know I’m using food to soothe me. What can I do to stop this?”

This episode is for you if you:

• Find yourself emotionally eating during stressful or difficult times
• Use food to cope with emotions like anxiety, loneliness, or exhaustion
• Want to know how to stop emotional eating without guilt, restriction, or willpower battles

Instead of focusing on stopping the behavior, I walk you through three compassionate, practical shifts that help you feel more in control around food (even during hard seasons).

We talk about:

1. How to interrupt emotional eating without judgment
2. Why adding support works better than taking food away
3. How regulating your body can reduce emotional intensity and cravings

These tools are especially powerful if you’re searching for:

• How to stop using food to soothe me
• How to stop emotional eating during stressful times
• A healthier way of coping that still feels supportive and realistic

If 2026 is the year your visions stop being just visions and finally become your everyday life, you're gonna wanna hear this episode. 

In today’s episode of Isn’t She Powerful, I’m pulling back the curtain on three intentional shifts I’m making this year to ensure my vision board doesn’t just look pretty... but actually becomes my real life.

This isn’t about hustling harder or being “more disciplined.” It’s about the internal decisions that quietly shape our outcomes, especially when motivation fades or things feel uncomfortable.

In this episode, I walk you through:

✨ Why getting uncomfortable is non-negotiable if you want a different outcome than you’ve had before (and how I’m choosing discomfort on purpose this year)
✨ How shifting my focus from what’s hard to what’s good is changing everything, even when challenges still exist
✨ What it looks like to follow your intuition without overthinking, second-guessing, or waiting for perfect clarity

If you’ve ever felt stuck between who you are now and the life you know you’re capable of creating, this episode will help you bridge that gap with honesty, intention, and trust.

🎧 Press play if you’re ready to stop just *visualizing* your goals, and start LIVING them.

If this episode resonates with you, I’d love for you to leave a rating and review! It helps this podcast reach more women who need these reminders too. 💛

• The mindset that keeps me from saying “screw it” when the day gets chaotic
• How I hit my water goal even when I’m constantly on the go

You’ve probably been told to “just eat in moderation” more times than you can count.
But if no one ever taught you what that means in real life, it can feel confusing, frustrating, and honestly impossible.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what eating in moderation actually looks like (beyond vague advice and food rules) and how to practice it consistently without guilt, restriction, or losing control around food.

I’m walking you through how to build the skill of moderation (because yes, it’s a skill, not something you’re born knowing) and how to strengthen that muscle so it starts to feel easier and more natural over time.

You’ll also learn a simple 2-step process you can use anytime you’re about to eat foods like dessert, chips, pasta, or any food that previously felt “off limits.” This process helps you check in with your body, make intentional choices, and move on without second-guessing yourself afterward.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why “eating in moderation” feels so hard for so many women
• The biggest misconception about moderation that keeps people stuck in all-or-nothing cycles
• Why moderation isn’t about eating less, it’s about eating with awareness
• How to build the muscle of moderation so it feels easier over time
• The exact 2-step process to walk yourself through when deciding how much to eat
• How to enjoy foods like dessert, pasta, or chips without guilt, overthinking, or feeling out of control
• What to do if you’ve tried moderation before and it “didn’t work”
  
  

If you’ve ever felt like moderation works for everyone except you, this episode will change how you see it.

If you’ve ever said, “I know I should work out, I just can’t make myself stick with it,” this episode is for you.

For years, exercise felt like a punishment to me. Something I forced myself to do because I thought I had to in order to lose weight. I didn’t enjoy it, I wasn’t consistent, and every time I fell off, I felt like I was failing.

But something shifted.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing how I went from hating working out to becoming someone who genuinely enjoys exercise and looks forward to it (without relying on motivation, discipline, or an “all-or-nothing” mindset.)

This isn’t a story about suddenly loving the gym or having insane willpower. It’s about the mindset changes and practical shifts that made exercise feel supportive instead of punishing.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The mindset shift that helped me stop forcing myself to do exercise I hated
• How to build a consistent exercise routine that actually fits your life
• What to do if you hate working out but still want to feel stronger and healthier
• How to reconnect with movement in a way that feels good, not exhausting

If you’re stuck in the cycle of starting strong, burning out, and quitting, this episode will help you rethink exercise in a way that makes consistency feel natural instead of forced.

🎧 Press play if you want exercise to feel less like something you “should” do... and more like something you actually want to do.

Have you ever eaten a full meal… and somehow still felt like food was calling your name?

You’re not broken and you’re definitely not lacking willpower. What you’re experiencing might not be hunger at all. In this episode, we’re unpacking the difference between true physical hunger and food noise, why both feel so real, and how learning to tell them apart can completely change your relationship with food.

If you’ve ever felt confused by your cravings, stuck in an all-or-nothing cycle, or guilty for wanting food when you “just ate,” this conversation is for you.

In this episode, we cover:

• What hunger actually is and how your body communicates it
• Common physical signs of true hunger
• What food noise is and why it feels so loud
• The most common reasons food noise shows up (restriction, blood sugar, stress, habits)
• A simple check-in to help you tell hunger and food noise apart in real time
• How to respond to hunger in a way that builds trust with your body
• How to navigate food noise without guilt, shame, or white-knuckling
• Why understanding this difference leads to fewer cravings and more sustainable habits

Why this matters:

When you treat food noise like hunger, or hunger like a problem, it keeps you stuck in cycles of restriction, overeating, and frustration. Learning the difference helps you stop fighting your body and start working with it, creating consistency without burnout.

If you’re ready to feel more calm around food and stop questioning every craving, this episode will give you clarity and relief.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal conversation about my relationship with God and how it has evolved over the years.

Faith hasn’t always looked the same for me, and it continues to grow, shift, and deepen as I learn to trust more, release control, and stay grounded in gratitude. In this episode, I open up about how my understanding of God has changed, how I connect with my Angels, and how setting intentions has become one of the most meaningful ways I pray.

We’ll talk about moving away from fear-based faith and toward a relationship rooted in trust, surrender, and daily gratitude. I share how intentional prayer, listening to intuition, and cultivating deep trust have helped me feel supported, guided, and less alone, especially during seasons of uncertainty and growth.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from God, unsure how to pray, or curious about a more intuitive and personal relationship with faith, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we cover:

• How my relationship with God has evolved over the years
• What my connection with my Angels looks like
• How I use intention-setting as a form of prayer
• The role daily gratitude plays in strengthening faith
• Learning to trust God without needing all the answers
• Letting go of fear, control, and perfection in faith
• How deep trust has transformed my spiritual life

This episode is an invitation to explore what faith looks like for you without rules, pressure, or comparison.

🎧 Listen now and reflect on how your own relationship with God may be growing and changing.

Were you raised to finish everything on your plate, no matter what? That childhood rule is still shaping your eating habits today in ways you don’t even realize.

In this episode of Isn’t She Powerful, we’re unpacking how being forced (or pressured) to clean your plate as a child can lead to overeating, guilt, ignoring hunger cues, and feeling out of control around food as an adult.

This isn’t about blaming parents! It’s about understanding where your patterns came from so you can finally stop fighting yourself at every meal.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why cleaning your plate trained you to ignore hunger and fullness cues
• How “don’t waste food” messaging leads to guilt-driven eating
• Why fullness may feel uncomfortable or hard to recognize at all
• Simple actions to start doing immediately to shifts to begin trusting your body again

If You’ve Ever Thought:

• “I can’t stop once I start eating”
• “I hate wasting food, even when I’m full”
• “I don’t know what ‘full’ feels like”
• “Why do I always eat past fullness?”

This episode will help you see that nothing is wrong with you, your eating habits were learned, and they can be unlearned.

• Like healthy living feels harder than it should
