  • 200: Food Drama

    What if healing your relationship with food and your body feels…boring? In this episode, we’re talking about food drama—the constant thoughts, rules, judgments, guilt, and stories we create around what we eat and how our bodies look.

    We’ll explore why we can become so attached to this mental roller coaster, even when it leaves us exhausted, and how food and body preoccupation can create the illusion of control while taking up valuable mental space.

    But what happens when we begin to let go of the drama? Food becomes food, cravings become information, and our bodies become something we can live in rather than constantly evaluate. And while that peace may initially feel uneventful, it also creates space for the relationships, experiences, passions, and dreams that matter to us. Because maybe “boring” isn’t the absence of something—it’s what peace feels like when you’re finally used to chaos.

  • 199: Asking Better Questions

    What if the questions you ask yourself are actually keeping you stuck?

    In this episode, we’re exploring how shifting from judgment to curiosity can change the way you understand emotional eating, cravings, and your relationship with food.

    Instead of asking questions like, “What’s wrong with me?” or “Why do I always fail?” we’ll explore more compassionate, growth-oriented questions such as, “What do I need right now?” and “What can I learn from this?”

    You’ll learn how better questions can help you move away from self-blame, understand what’s really driving your behaviors, and create more awareness, choice, and self-compassion around food and your body.

  • 198: How to See Yourself Differently in Photos

    In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at body image and the emotional reactions that can arise when we see ourselves in a mirror or photo. Instead of immediately criticizing our bodies or turning an uncomfortable feeling into a reason to diet, restrict, overexercise, or shame ourselves, we’ll explore how emotional intelligence can help us pause, identify what we’re really feeling, and separate objective observations from the stories we create about our appearance.

    We’ll also unpack the idea of “feeling fat” and why there may be deeper emotions underneath that thought. You’ll learn five practical strategies to respond to body-image triggers with curiosity rather than criticism, tolerate discomfort without trying to “fix” your body, recognize automatic behaviors, create space between emotions and actions, and remember that your reflection is information—not a verdict on your worth.

  • 197: Rewriting Food Rules

    What if the food rules you’ve been following to feel “in control” around food are actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, we’re challenging diet culture’s rules and exploring what it could look like to create new, more empowering beliefs around food.

    You’ll learn how thoughts shape your feelings, actions, and results—and why shifting beliefs can help break the cycle of restriction, overeating, guilt, and food obsession.

    We’ll explore practical alternatives to rigid rules, such as giving yourself permission to eat when you’re hungry, allowing all foods to fit, eating for pleasure and satisfaction, and choosing curiosity over judgment.

    Most importantly, you’ll learn how to create believable new food beliefs and practice them until they become more natural, helping you build greater trust, freedom, ease, and confidence around food.

  • 196: Using Emotional Intelligence to Break your All-or-Nothing Thinking

    In this episode of the Lose Your Cravings podcast, we’re taking a fresh look at all-or-nothing thinking around food and how emotional intelligence can help us break free from it.

    If you’ve spent years dieting, you may be familiar with the cycle of being “on track” or “off track,” labeling foods as good or bad, feeling like one eating experience has ruined your entire day, or telling yourself you’ll start over tomorrow. But these patterns aren’t a sign that you lack discipline—they’re often learned from years of diet culture and restrictive thinking.

    In this episode, we explore how self-awareness, self-regulation, curiosity, self-compassion, and other emotional intelligence skills can create space between an emotion or craving and your automatic response.

    Instead of reacting with guilt and shame, you can learn to pause, understand what’s really happening, and make a supportive choice. Because you don’t have to choose between controlling your eating and completely losing control—you can find the middle ground where flexibility, pleasure, satisfaction, and trust in yourself can grow.

  • 195: Are you Focusing on the Wrong Thing?

    In this episode, we explore why so many of us approach change by trying to fix what we believe is "wrong" with ourselves—and why that mindset often keeps us stuck.

    We unpack how our brain's negativity bias, our innate desire to belong, and years of exposure to diet culture have taught us to see our bodies and eating habits as problems to solve.

    Instead of chasing perfection through restriction and self-criticism, this episode invites you to shift your focus toward the person you want to become. You'll learn how changing your thoughts, letting go of diet culture beliefs, leveraging your existing strengths, and approaching your relationship with food and your body with curiosity can build confidence, consistency, and self-compassion.

    This future-focused, non-diet approach offers a sustainable path toward food freedom by helping you create lasting change from a place of possibility rather than fixing perceived flaws.

  • 194: Nutrition Isn't Complicated; Diet Culture Just Wants You to Think it is.

    In this episode, we unpack the myth that nutrition is complicated and explore how diet culture profits from keeping us confused about food.

    If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting nutrition advice, strict food rules, calorie counting, or the endless stream of diets promising to solve all your problems, you're not alone. In this episode, we dive into how diet culture creates confusion so it can sell solutions, and why true nourishment is often much simpler than we've been led to believe.

    You'll learn how unlearning diet culture beliefs can help you let go of food guilt, stop labeling foods as "good" or "bad," build trust with your body, and create a more peaceful relationship with food. This episode offers a non-diet perspective on nutrition and encourages you to replace perfection, restriction, and self-judgment with curiosity, compassion, and food freedom.

  • 193: Making Real Change

    Have you ever downloaded a guide, listened to a podcast, attended a workshop, or saved a post about cravings, emotional eating, or body image—only to never actually put the information into practice?

    In this episode, we explore the difference between consuming information and creating real change. While learning can inspire us, lasting transformation comes from taking action and consistently practicing what we learn.

    I discuss why so many of us stay stuck in "learning mode," how fear, discomfort, and perfectionism can keep us from acting, and what it really takes to reduce cravings, manage emotional eating, and improve body image from a non-diet perspective.

    You'll walk away with practical strategies to help you move from collecting information to implementing it, because change doesn't happen when you know more—it happens when you do more.

  • 192: Body Trends

    In this episode of the Lose Your Cravings, we take a deep dive into the return of the “skinny trend” and explore how shifting beauty standards continue to shape women’s relationships with their bodies, food, and self-worth.

    From the rise of GLP-1 medications and ultra-thin celebrity culture to fashion trends, capitalism, patriarchy, and the ever-changing “ideal” female body throughout history, this episode unpacks why body ideals are never really about health — they’re about culture, power, and profit.

    Through a non-diet, mindful lens, we examine how these pressures influence emotional eating, cravings, body image, and the tendency for women to shrink themselves physically and emotionally.

    Most importantly, this conversation encourages women to step away from chasing impossible standards and instead focus on strength, energy, mental health, self-respect, and creating peace with food and their bodies.
