If you’ve ever said, “Why do I always go back to food?” — this episode is for you.

In this powerful reframing, Rob shares why emotional eating isn’t about weakness, lack of willpower, or escape. It’s about safety. It’s about regulation. It’s the nervous system’s way of bringing you back home when everything else feels too much.

Inside this episode:

• Why emotional eating is often a return to familiarity, not avoidance
• The link between binge eating and inner child trauma
• How your body uses food to self-soothe when nothing else feels safe
• Why the answer isn’t more control — it’s more compassion
• How to begin breaking the shame cycle around eating habits

If you’re healing emotional eating, exploring inner child work, or learning to listen to your body without judgment — this episode will change the way you see everything.
