In this episode of It Was Never About The Food, Rob explores how childhood conditioning shapes adult identity — and what happens when you spend your life performing for love.

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t know who you are without the people-pleasing, perfectionism, or emotional masks… this one will hit deep.

We dive into:

• Why so many women feel like they’re “too much” or “not enough”
• How subtle emotional pressure in childhood creates performance-based self-worth
• What it means to take the mask off — without losing yourself
• The link between emotional safety and authenticity
• Why your eating habits, spirals, or self-sabotage were never the real problem

Whether you’re navigating emotional eating, identity loss, inner child work, or just trying to feel more like yourself, this episode will help you understand why you became who you became — and how to come home to the you underneath it all.

🔁 You don’t need to perform to be loved. You just need to come back to who you were before the world told you to change.
