    Today's guest on the Losing Weight to Gain Control Podcast is Jessica Procini.  Jessica is on a mission to help high-achieving women who are change makers heal the roots of their emotional eating so they can use food as fuel rather than a way to cope, soothe and attempt to escape their busy, stressful life. From over a decade of research into the Psychology of Eating and her own personal emotional eating journey, Jessica consciously created her uniquely effective Escape From Emotional Eating process and programs because Overeaters Anonymous didn't resonate with her and the 932 hours she spent in therapy never helped her end her fight with food. Jessica knew there needed to be a different kind of support...one that got to the roots of emotional eating.  Now being 100% free from her compulsions with food, Jessica helps other high-achieving women do the same through all her levels of support such as her year-long transformational programs, her retreats called the ESCAPE and through her various public talks, events and workshops. Jessica and her work have received awards from the Institute of Psychology of Eating three years in a row. She has appeared in various media outlets such as ABC, CBS, and MindBodyGreen.
