“You need to get more in tune with what actually serves you.” Sherry Shaban

In this episode, I’ll share with you the complexities of emotional and binge eating—especially how restrictive dieting can wreak havoc on the nervous system. I’ll be sharing the second step in my seven-step process to calm cravings: making all foods neutral.

Through my own experiences with food obsession and emotional eating, I’ll reveal the science behind why labeling foods as "good" or "bad" only fuels stress, slows metabolism, and keeps you stuck in the binge-restrict cycle. Instead of focusing on willpower and rigid food rules, I’ll show you how nervous system regulation can transform your relationship with food, helping you shift from fear and guilt to true food freedom.

If you’ve ever felt trapped in an endless battle with cravings, this episode is for you. Let’s break free together.

Topics Covered: 

0:00 Seven Steps to Overcome Emotional Eating and Food Fear

1:44 Struggles with Food Obsession and Dietary Confusion

5:13 Embracing Food Neutrality to Overcome Emotional Eating

6:40 The Impact of Food Perception on Nervous System and Metabolism

9:54 Neutralizing Food Perceptions to Break Negative Thought Patterns

13:27 Transforming Food Relationships Through Nervous System Regulation

Key Takeaways:

1. Neutralize Food Perception: Shift perspective from labeling food as good or bad to viewing it as serving or not serving you in various ways.
2. Impact of Food on Emotions: Understand how associating emotions with food choices can trigger metabolic responses and influence overall health.
3. Nervous System Regulation: Learn the importance of maintaining a balanced nervous system to avoid triggering protection modes that slow metabolism.
4. Personalized Diet Approach: Embrace a diet mindset that respects individual differences and metabolic responses rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
5. Sustainable Lifestyle Changes: Focus on layering beneficial habits gradually, implementing addition before subtraction to avoid feelings of restriction.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right—eating well, exercising, pushing yourself—but your body just won’t let go of fat, there’s a reason.

Your nervous system is either in Protection Mode (fight-or-flight) or Safety Mode (rest-and-digest)—and fat release only happens in safety mode. But if your body feels unsafe? It clings to fat, slows metabolism, and even triggers binge eating and self-sabotage.

Think about it. You go through stress, and suddenly you’re reaching for food you swore you wouldn’t touch. You’re not weak—it’s biology. When your body is in survival mode, it’s wired to conserve energy and seek quick fuel. That’s why unwanted eating behaviors feel so out of control sometimes.

But here’s the kicker: fat loss isn’t just about burning calories—it’s about making your body feel safe enough to let go.

So the real question is—are you pushing your body into Protection Mode without even realizing it? Because if you are, no amount of dieting or exercise is going to override survival mode.

It’s time to stop fighting your body and start working with it.

Have you ever wondered why you keep falling into the same self-sabotaging patterns, no matter how hard you try to break free? In this minisode, I explore four powerful categories of negative thought loops: birth trauma, parental disapproval syndrome, the unconscious death urge, and those sneaky, everyday negative thoughts that hold us back. These patterns can fuel anxiety, fear, and self-doubt, keeping us stuck in cycles of frustration. But here's the good news—once we bring them into the light, we can rewire our mindset and take back control.

Join me as we uncover how these deep-seated beliefs impact our emotions and behaviors, and most importantly, how we can shift them to create a more empowered, fulfilling life. 

If you're ready to transform the way you think and finally break free from self-sabotage, this episode is for you!

• Parental Disapproval Syndrome: Understand how transgenerational expectations can lead to feelings of inadequacy and the continuous need to seek validation.

• Unconscious Death Urge: Explore the underlying beliefs that create an attitude of resignation and pointlessness, inhibiting proactive behavior and personal advancement.

• Negative Thought Patterns: Discover the influence of self-criticism and the power of reframing negative self-talk to establish a constructive mindset.

• Power of Thoughts: Realize that our internal dialogue forms the foundation of our reality and that positive affirmations can significantly enhance confidence and success.
