In this episode, we explore the Everest Effect as a compassionate, non-diet framework for healing your relationship with food.

Using the metaphor of climbing Mount Everest, we normalize the ups and downs of working with cravings, emotional eating, bingeing, and body image—showing why progress is never a straight line.

Periods of feeling grounded and using tools to sit with cravings are part of the climb, while days of overeating are not failures but necessary returns to “base camp” that help us acclimate, gather awareness, and build capacity.

Rather than responding with shame or restriction, we invite curiosity, self-compassion, and support, reminding listeners that each cycle deepens trust, resilience, and choice—and that sustainable change with food happens through gentleness, not force.

Keysa Amaro helps women manage their emotional eating and cravings without deprivation or complicated meal plans so they can show up fully in their life and career.

Meal planning doesn’t have to feel like another diet rule you’re failing to follow. In this episode of Lose Your Cravings, we explore the key mindset differences between diet meal prepping and non-diet meal prepping—and why traditional planning often fuels cravings, guilt, and body frustration instead of easing them.

You’ll learn how a non-diet approach to meal planning can support nourishment, satisfaction, and self-trust without rigidity or pressure. If you’re tired of starting over every Monday, battling cravings, or feeling like food controls your life, this episode offers a gentler, more sustainable way to plan that actually works with your body, not against it.

In this episode of the Lose Your Cravings Podcast, we explore the powerful difference between allowing emotions and reacting to them, and how this skill can gently transform cravings, emotional eating, and everyday stress—from a non-diet perspective. 

You’ll learn how reacting is a natural nervous system response meant to stop discomfort, why it shows up in many areas of life (not just with food), and how allowing emotions creates space for awareness, choice, and self-trust.

In this episode of the Lose Your Cravings Podcast, I share the wisdom of the Fall Equinox — a sacred moment of balance, release, and renewal. Drawing from my experience as a yoga teacher, along with theological insights and yoga philosophy.

I explore how this seasonal shift mirrors the natural cycles of life, body, and emotions. Together, we’ll reflect on what nature teaches us about letting go, slowing down, and trusting transitions, and how these lessons can support women navigating emotional eating, body image struggles, and the pull of diet culture from a non-diet perspective.

When it comes to emotional eating, we often focus on our own feelings—identifying them, allowing them, and finding healthier ways to respond. But what about the emotions we pick up from others?

In this episode of Lose Your Cravings, Keysa dives into the overlooked role of carrying other people’s stress, anger, guilt, and disappointment—and how taking on emotions that aren’t yours can quietly fuel cravings, overeating, and the cycle of emotional eating.

Through compassionate insight, real-life examples, and a calming guided practice, you’ll learn how to:

• Recognize when you’re absorbing emotions that don’t belong to you
• Understand why this often leads to anxiety, guilt, and food cravings
• Use powerful phrases like “This is not mine to carry” and “Two things can be true” to set boundaries with compassion
• Explore reflective questions and journaling prompts that support food freedom and self-awareness
• Practice a short grounding exercise to release emotional weight in the moment

If you’ve ever felt like you’re eating to soothe feelings that aren’t even yours, this episode will help you build emotional resilience, create healthy boundaries, and find a calmer, non-diet path toward your relationship with food.

In this episode of Lose Your Cravings, we’re diving into the belief many women carry: “I can’t trust myself around food.” 

If you’ve ever felt out of control, like once you start eating you just can’t stop, you’re not alone—and it’s not because you’re broken or lack willpower. It’s the result of years of diet culture, restriction, and the all-or-nothing mindset around food. 

Together, we’ll explore why this chaotic relationship with eating develops, how to quiet the guilt and shame, and practical steps to rebuild trust with your body so you can feel calm and confident around food again. This is your invitation to stop fighting yourself and start trusting yourself instead.
