Your history with food and dieting didn't start with you. You saw your mothers or fathers diet and their grandparents also dieted and their grandparents also dieted. There is a long history of diet culture passed down from generation to generation and expressed differently in the trendiest, most common diet of the time. This isn't about the food, but that nervous system states, traumas, and lack of safety is being expressed through food in family lineages.  Creating a safer and more stabilizing relationship with food can also be engaging in the healing of past generations who never got a chance to feel safe in their bodies and future generations to have that groundwork that you had to create for yourself. In this week's episode, I chat with Amber Caudle, chef, author, speaker, and coach, about: What a journey to food freedom actually looks likeHow the nervous system plays a role in food recoveryThe importance of self compassion, curiosity and creativityThe work of True Body Intelligence for trauma recoveryThe impact of generational trauma on food behaviors, and steps to build trust in your bodyYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/rebuilding-body-trust-after-decades-of-dietingHope you enjoy this week's episode and see you all next week! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Amber: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ambercaudlela/Book: Hungry: https://amzn.to/4vYeW3TWebsite: https://www.nourishyourpowers.com/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...

Do you know what to eat, but still find yourself battling food noise, emotional eating, or constantly starting over? In today's episode, we're joined by Hannah Bryson, Christian binge and emotional eating coach and host of the From Binge Eating to Balance podcast. Hannah shares why the problem isn't a lack of nutrition knowledgeit's the deeper emotional and spiritual patterns driving our relationship with food. We talk about how to identify your triggers, break free from food guilt, navigate social events with confidence, and find lasting freedom through God instead of more food rules. If you're ready to stop striving and finally experience peace with food, this conversation is one you won't want to miss.

In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling unpack the cortisol-dopamine-insulin loop — the hidden neurochemical cycle that drives cravings, emotional eating, and the "one bad decision snowball" that so many fasters experience. They explain why this isn't a willpower problem but a hormonal and behavioral feedback loop rooted in stress, sleep deprivation, and the brain's hardwired search for quick energy and dopamine reward. The hosts walk through each stage of the loop and share practical pattern interrupts — from breathwork and environment changes to proper mineral and electrolyte support — that can break the cycle before it restarts. A key insight from the episode is the cortisol-sodium connection, and how simply prioritizing proper hydration with unrefined salts first thing in the morning can calm the entire stress response system and make fasting feel dramatically easier throughout the day. The conversation wraps with a reminder that protecting sleep, eating earlier in the day, and building consistent fasting windows are the long-game levers that finally let your physiology work for you instead of against you — and this week's action step is to identify where you tend to enter the loop and apply just one targeted tool to interrupt it. ⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

What if one of the biggest reasons you're emotionally eating during menopause has nothing to do with food? In this episode, I share a coaching conversation that uncovered a pattern I see in so many women in menopause. The habit of saying "yes" when your body is desperately asking you to say "no." We often believe we're being loving, helpful, or selfless, but when we repeatedly ignore what we truly want, the emotional discomfort doesn't disappear. It often shows up through overeating instead. I also explain how people-pleasing can quietly fuel emotional eating, why learning to recognize your body's signals is the first step toward change, and how practicing awareness can help you begin honoring yourself without guilt. You don't have to start by making huge changes. Sometimes simply noticing when you want to say no is where everything begins to shift. Enjoy the show!

What if the biggest thing standing between you and better health isn't your diet, your workout routine, or your hormones?What if it's the relationship you've built with yourself?In this conversation, I sit down with psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Nicole LePera to explore how our earliest experiences shape the way we move through adulthood. From emotional eating and food noise to perfectionism, people pleasing, burnout, and the struggle to trust ourselves, so many of the habits we think are personality traits are actually learned survival strategies.We also explore why healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about reconnecting with the parts of yourself that have always been there.If you've ever wondered why you know what to do for your health but still struggle to follow through, this conversation offers a completely different way to understand yourself.In this episode, you'll learn:Why the first five years of life shape the way your nervous system responds to stressWhy food noise and emotional eating often point to deeper unmet needsHow small daily promises help rewire your brain and build confidenceThe difference between guilt and shame, and how each affects your decisionsWhy learning to rest can feel uncomfortable for so many womenPractical ways to reconnect with your body and begin healing old patterns_More on Dr. Nicole LePeraDr. Nicole LePera is a holistic psychologist, trained at Cornell University, The New School for Social Research and The Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis.

In binge eating recovery, many people believe they should be able to keep every food in the house, eat every food casually, and handle every food environment without support. But recovery is not about proving you can do everything the hard way.In this episode, we talk about guardrails: practical supports that make desired behaviors easier and reduce the setups that tend to make eating feel chaotic. Guardrails might include buying smaller portions, putting certain foods out of sight, using a Kitchen Safe, asking for help at home, planning food when traveling, or choosing the conditions that make a tricky food feel calmer.You'll learn why guardrails are not the same as bans, why needing support does not mean you're failing, and how to tell the difference between a supportive guardrail and punitive restriction.New to the show?

Something I learned from diet culture was that the taste of sweet was "bad." If I craved sweetness then something must be out of balance. There was probably a period of time where craving sweetness sent me into a panic where I had to become a detective to understand why I wanted something sweet. Learning about the five tastes changed my perspective. We have 5 basic tastes that include sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and savory. Experiencing all five tastes can make a meal feel more satisfying and even regulating to your nervous system. Wanting to taste sweetness doesn't mean there is something wrong with you, but that your body is always looking for a balanced, well rounded eating experience. Additionally, the demonization of sweet foods has led to a complete disconnect from the body. One of the first tastes we experience as a baby is sweet. Sweet can be connected to care, warmth, attention, attunement, and connection. What if you're not out of control with eating sweets, but starving for the bodily experience that sweets provide?In this week's episode, I chat with Michelle Brown, Functional Nutrition and Lifestyle Practitioner and clinical herbalist, about: The somatic experience of foodThe five tastes and how they affect your nervous systemUnderstanding sweetness and its role in nutritionBalancing taste for inner harmonyCravings as body communicationThe connection between taste and emotionsThe importance of enjoying your mealsYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/five-tastes-calm-or-energize-your-nervous-systemWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Michelle here: Website: www.botanacea.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michelle_botanacea/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@michelleBotanacea LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-brown-b48a31205/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/michellebrownhealthcoachSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...

Why do you keep turning to food when you're stressed… even when you know it's not what you actually need?In this episode, I dive into the real connection between emotional eating, stress, and the way we've learned to cope with discomfort, and why it's not about food or lack of discipline.If you find yourself turning to food to escape stress, overwhelm, or difficult emotions, and you're ready to understand what's really driving that pattern so you can begin to change it, this episode is for you.The Real Reason You Cope the Way You DoEvery single person copes differently.Some turn to food.Some to alcohol, shopping, scrolling, overworking…But underneath it all is the same unconscious driver:A belief that emotions are unsafe.When stress, fear, or discomfort arises, your nervous system can interpret it as something harmful — something you need to escape quickly. And the fastest way out?A dopamine hit.Dopamine, Patterns & “Addiction” ReframedWhat we often label as “addiction” isn't our identity.It's not a lack of willpower.It's simply a pattern that's been reinforced over time.A loop:Feel discomfortSeek reliefGet a quick rewardRepeatAnd over time, that loop becomes automatic.Food is just one option — but the pattern can show up everywhere:OvereatingOverspendingOverdrinkingOverworkingSame mechanism. Different outlet.The Unconscious Beliefs Running the ShowThe key word here is:Unconscious.These are the beliefs you're not actively thinking about, but they're driving your behavior:“Stress is harmful.”“I can't handle this feeling.”“If I sit in this, something bad will happen.”And because these beliefs live beneath awareness, they feel like truth.Your Patterns Are CluesIf you want to understand your relationship with food…You have to look beyond food.Questions you can ask:Where else do I avoid discomfort?Where do I shut down, distract, or escape?What patterns repeat across my life?Because:How you do anything is how you do everything.Why This Started (And Why It's Not Random)Most emotional coping patterns don't start in adulthood.They start in childhood.When:Emotions didn't feel safe to expressYou were told to “toughen up”You didn't receive support to regulate how you feltYou experienced stress or discomfort without guidanceAs a child, emotional pain can feel like physical pain. So your system learned to protect your the only way it knew how:Disconnect. Escape. Numb.Awareness Is the First ShiftYou don't need to fix everything overnight.You don't need to control your behavior.You need to start noticing.Because once you become aware…You can't become unaware.Ownership Without BlameOwning your patterns isn't about blaming yourself.It's about saying:“I'm choosing this because I'm trying to avoid something.”And that shift creates:AwarenessCuriosityCompassionPossibilityDownload my free guide, Calm the Craving: 7 Steps to Break Emotional and Binge Eating, and finally end the cycle of out-of-control eating: www.sherryshaban.comWork With Sherry Shaban:Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call and start your journey to lasting change! www.sherryshabanfitness.com/clarityListen & SubscribeCatch more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube so you never miss an episode!Connect & Go DeeperJoin our Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with Sherry: www.sherryshaban.com/transformExplore more resources: www.makepeacewithfood.comShare Your TakeawayTag us on Instagram (@makepeacewithfoodofficial), Facebook (@MakePeaceWithFoodOfficial), TikTok (@sherryshaban), or LinkedIn (sherryshaban) and share your biggest insight from this episode!

How do you break free from emotional eating, binge eating, or food addiction when willpower isn't enough? Could hormone imbalances, nervous system dysregulation, childhood experiences, and hidden emotional triggers be the real reasons you're struggling with food?In this episode, I sit down with Amber Romaniuk to explore the real differences between emotional eating, binge eating, bulimia, and food addiction, and why understanding those distinctions is the first step toward lasting healing. Amber shares her deeply personal story of struggling with all of these challenges throughout her life, from the childhood experiences that shaped her relationship with food to the rock-bottom moment that inspired her to completely turn things around for the better. We talk about why dieting, restriction, and relying on willpower often only make the cycle worse, and how so many people blame themselves when the real issues go far beyond food.She also explains the root causes behind self-sabotage with food, and we discuss how hormone imbalances, neurotransmitter dysfunction, blood sugar instability, gut health, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation can all contribute to overwhelming cravings and loss of control around eating. We explore why simply changing what you eat isn't always enough, how to identify your personal triggers, and why building self-awareness, self-care, and emotional resilience creates a much stronger foundation for healing than chasing another diet ever could.If you've ever felt frustrated that you're doing everything "right" but still feel stuck with food challenges or your weight, this episode offers a compassionate, root-cause approach that can help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface.Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

Do you keep turning to food when something feels off?Do you try to control it… but end up losing control anyway?Do you wonder why the cycle keeps repeating?In this episode, I break down why you keep turning to food—and how trying to control it is actually what keeps you stuck.This episode is for you if you're ready to understand your emotional eating and finally break free from the cycle.The Real Root of OvereatingIn this episode, I guide you away from food rules and into something deeper:Why do you reach for food when you feel a certain way?Why do you “lose control” after being “so good” all week?Why does nighttime feel like your only moment to finally relax…with food?This is where emotional eating lives — not in your willpower, but in your patterns.The First Step (And Why It Feels So Hard)One of the most confronting but powerful starting points:Stop controlling the food.That means:No more obsessively tracking every biteNo more labeling foods as “good” or “bad”No more relying on rules to feel safeAnd just as important:Stop weighing yourself.Because when you constantly measure and check, you disconnect from your body and rely on external validation instead of internal signals.Rebuilding Trust With Your BodyWhen you remove control, something powerful happens:You begin to reconnect with your body's intelligence.Instead of asking:“Is this allowed?”“Does this fit my plan?”You start asking:“Does this serve me?”Awareness replaces restriction.You begin noticing:How food makes you feelWhat keeps you satisfiedWhat leaves you depletedAnd that awareness becomes your guide.The Language Shift That Changes EverythingMoving away from:“I can't eat this”“I should eat that”Into:“This serves me”“This doesn't serve me”This shift creates freedom and choice instead of pressure and control.The Rule of Addition (Before Subtraction)Instead of focusing on what to remove… I teach you to add first.Because your body is highly sensitive to scarcity.Every thought like:“I can't have that”“I shouldn't eat this”Creates stress — and stress leads to more cravings.So instead, you begin adding:More nourishmentMore supportMore balanceAnd this creates safety in the body.From Safety to BalanceWhen your body feels safe and nourished, everything begins to shift:Cravings softenHunger becomes clearerFood feels less chaoticAnd your body starts working with you — not against you.Download my free guide, Calm the Craving: 7 Steps to Break Emotional and Binge Eating, and finally end the cycle of out-of-control eating: www.sherryshaban.comWork With Sherry Shaban:Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call and start your journey to lasting change! www.sherryshabanfitness.com/clarityListen & SubscribeCatch more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube so you never miss an episode!Connect & Go DeeperJoin our Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with Sherry: www.sherryshaban.com/transformExplore more resources: www.makepeacewithfood.comShare Your TakeawayTag us on Instagram (@makepeacewithfoodofficial), Facebook (@MakePeaceWithFoodOfficial), TikTok (@sherryshaban), or LinkedIn (sherryshaban) and share your biggest insight from this episode!

Dr. Deb shares a refreshing, sustainable approach to wellness that helps women finally break free from diet culture and create peace with food.After decades of struggling with weight and yo-yo dieting, Dr. Deb reached a turning point at age 50.

As the middle child of five, Ping experienced a lot of family pressure and political pressure as she was raised in China during The Cultural Revolution from 1966 through 1976. Enduring tremendous upheaval, it took a toll on Ping and her family. Perhaps because of Ping's past, she found it in her heart to stand up against society and family. Ping was there for her daughter at a number of crucial life changing events. She deserves a lot of credit for believing in her daughter and her daughter's behavior, when culturally it was frowned upon.  In one particular situation that you'll hear about in the interview  Leslie says "my mom's lack of response saved me." So many lessons to learn from two women, very similar personalities yet a generation apart. Leslie shares that she knew at a young age that she wanted to leave China and go to college in the United States and it was her mother who stood in front of thousands and advocated for her daughter and didn't succumb to the intimidation. Today, Leslie is a mom and business owner. She  is not a doctor, yet after her own experience of weight gain and years of studying and research, she now is able to help others with their food obsession. Her philosophy incorporates current day reasonings as well as Chinese traditions to reprogram your relationship with food.  "It's rather a lifestyle and a kind of mindset and routine which can help you loose the weight effectively without being addicted to this weight loss game," suggests Chen.   One of her suggestions for curbing further cravings for sugar is, "Teassert." She explains in the interview.  Hope you enjoy our conversation.   "Leslie Chen is a high-performance weight loss coach who helps high-achieving women all over the world get a head-turning body permanently and effortlessly, using timeless wisdom from Asia.

What if the biggest obstacle to better health isn't your diet and instead it's the relationship you've built with your body?In this conversation, I sit down with psychologist Dr. Rachel Goldman to unpack why so many women struggle with body image, emotional eating, food noise, and self-worth, especially during midlife.We explore why lasting health isn't built through shame or punishment. It's built through curiosity, compassion, and learning to work with your body instead of constantly fighting against it.We also discuss the psychology behind food noise, body neutrality, GLP-1 medications, menopause, emotional eating, and why your relationship with yourself influences every health decision you make.If you've ever felt like your body has betrayed you, this episode offers a different perspective.In this episode, you'll learn:Why body image goes far beyond what you see in the mirrorThe difference between body positivity and body neutralityWhy food noise develops and how to begin quieting it naturallyHow emotional eating becomes a learned coping strategyWhy your self-worth should never depend on the number on the scaleHow menopause changes the emotional relationship women have with their bodiesWhy slowing down at meals changes more than digestionResources MentionedWhen Life HappensThe Body Keeps the ScoreCognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)The Reset AcademyNervous System Reset GuideMore on Dr. Rachel GoldmanDr. Rachel Goldman is a licensed psychologist, clinical assistant professor, media health expert, and nationally recognized speaker specializing in health behavior change, obesity, eating behaviors, stress management, and cognitive behavioral therapy.

In this episode, we're talking about exhaustion urges: urges to binge, graze, order food, snack compulsively, or keep eating when your system is depleted and food starts to look like the fastest available relief.Instead of focusing mostly on what to do once you're already too exhausted to care, we're moving upstream. Exhaustion urges often start earlier than the urge itself, when your battery is being drained by skipped breaks, overpacked schedules, under-planned recovery, travel, big events, and pushing through when you are already under-resourced.You'll learn how to use the Battery Check, why breaks work best before you desperately need them, how to tell growth discomfort from depletion, why rescheduling can be a recovery skill, and how to use the simple in-the-moment tool Get Horizontal when you're already below 20%.New to the show?

In this episode, Meg shares how she was diagnosed with anorexia at just 13 years old, and spent the next 16 years in and out of treatment before finally reaching full recovery in her late twenties.You'll hear Meg talk candidly about what it was like to be a dangerously underweight teenager caught in a cycle of perfectionism and control.Meg describes what treatment actually looked like for her, and the gap she found between learning coping tools in a clinical setting and applying them in real life.You'll also hear how her eating disorder evolved into emotional eating in her early twenties, with cycles of bingeing and restricting, and the moment on her living room couch that finally pushed her to seek a different kind of recovery.If you've ever turned to food to cope with anxiety, boredom, sadness, or even excitement, you'll relate to so much of what Meg shares.Meg finally found freedom through her concept of the "seven bodies", and she explains how emotional eating often comes from trying to fill the wrong kind of empty.We also talk about intuitive eating, and how it's possible to eat "whatever you want, whenever you want" including choosing not to eat sugar, flour, or other foods that don't make your body feel good.Find Meg here.To get personalized guidance to stop emotional eating and break free from sugar cravings, plus support and accountability... join the 90-day program, Freedom from Cravings Formula TODAY.For step-by-step guidance toward freedom from cravings, get your copy of my new book: "Break Free from Sugar Cravings".

Send us Fan MailMost people don't need more nutrition information.They already know many of the basics.They know protein matters.They know vegetables are good.They know extreme diets don't work long term.They know eating at night is often not really about hunger.But knowing what to do is not the same as doing it in real life.In this episode, I'm joined by Nicholas Kelly, a registered dietitian, public speaker, TEDx speaker, patient advocate, and someone who has lived with cystic fibrosis since he was three months old.Nicholas brings a unique perspective because he understands nutrition from both sides: as a clinician and as a patient. He knows what it means to apply health advice in real life, with real challenges.We talk about:Why nutrition advice often fails in real lifeWhy people try to change too much too fastHow to make nutrition habits more practical and sustainableWhy behavior matters more than just having more informationHow to reduce all-or-nothing thinking around foodWhy emotional eating starts with awareness, not shameHow to make meals easier when life is busyWhy breakfast, water, fruit, and simple meal structure can make a big differenceWhy carbs are not the enemyHow to stay patient when progress feels slowThis episode is for you if you've ever said:“I know what to do, but I still can't seem to do it.”Because maybe you don't need a stricter plan.Maybe you need a more realistic one.Learn more about Nicholas at nicholaskellyrd.com or find him on social media at @NicholasKellyRD.If you want help building a training and nutrition routine that fits your real life, check my coaching options here:personaltrainerturo.itTry The Consistency ResetMy new personalized coaching app for women 35–55 who are tired of starting over with diets, workouts, and healthy habits.Get simple daily actions, realistic workouts, practical nutrition habits, and Reset Mode to help you keep going when life gets busy.Take the quiz and build your personalized plan here: studio.com/turo/consistency-reset

Message me with comments or questionsYour brain is working against you — and perimenopause is why.When estrogen and progesterone start shifting, they don't just change your body. They rewire the way your brain handles mood, stress, cravings, and sleep — and that can pour gasoline on emotional eating.This isn't a willpower problem. It's biology.In this episode, I break down exactly what's happening inside your brain and body during perimenopause and menopause — so you can finally stop blaming yourself and start understanding what's actually driving the urge to eat.You'll learn:Why estrogen is a neuroactive hormone — and what happens to your mood and cravings when it dropsHow serotonin instability makes sugar feel like relief (it literally is, temporarily)Why your dopamine system gets blunted — and why your brain chases salty, sweet, high-fat foods to compensateThe cortisol-belly fat connection and why "menopause belly" shows up even when nothing else has changedHow your amygdala gets louder while your rational brain gets quieter — making emotional reactions harder to manageWhy ghrelin and leptin go haywire, leaving you hungry, unsatisfied, and chasing food that doesn't fill youWhy sleep is the linchpin — and what happens to hunger and cravings when sleep quality dropsAnd then we connect it all to what actually helps.I share why dieting harder in this season usually backfires — and what a moderate, compassionate approach looks like instead: protein at every meal, gentle movement, daily de-stressing, nervous system support, and learning your emotional eating patterns without shame.I also talk about finding a provider who truly understands menopause care and labs — and why that conversation (whether you choose HRT or not) can be a complete game changer.If this episode makes you feel seen, please subscribe, share it with a friend who needs the explanation, and leave a review — so more women can find the support they deserve.If you are interested in learning more about my new Breakthrough Menopause Coaching Program, join the waitlist and you will be the first to know all the details when it opens in August of 2026.

In today's episode, Trisha and I answer two listener questions. The first question is about feeling stuck in cycles of restarting instead of progressing, using food for comfort, and struggling to build consistency even when there is a strong desire to change. The second question is about ageing and the inner critic, and how it can feel difficult to let go of a younger version of yourself.  As always, Trisha McHale shares her psychotherapist view, helping explain why these patterns happen and how to change them for good.

For years we've been told that healing trauma means talking about it. But what if talking isn't enough?In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Harvard-trained psychiatrist and world-renowned trauma expert Dr. Frank Anderson to explore why trauma isn't simply stored in your memories. It's stored in your body.We discuss why so many women find old wounds resurfacing during perimenopause and menopause, why food often becomes a coping mechanism for unresolved trauma, and why traditional talk therapy doesn't always create lasting healing.Dr. Anderson shares the science behind trauma, nervous system regulation, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, psychedelics, and the small daily experiences that help your brain and body finally feel safe again.If you've ever wondered why you keep reacting the same way despite years of personal growth, this conversation will help you understand what your body has been trying to tell you all along.In this episode you'll learn:• Why talking about trauma doesn't always heal it• How trauma becomes stored inside the body• The surprising reason menopause often brings unresolved trauma to the surface• Why emotional eating is often a protective response• How fasting reveals hidden emotional patterns around food• Why triggers are valuable clues instead of something to fear• The role of EMDR, Internal Family Systems, somatic therapies, and psychedelics in trauma recovery• Simple daily practices that begin creating lasting healingResources MentionedThe Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der KolkTranscending Trauma by Dr. Frank AndersonTo Be Loved by Dr. Frank AndersonInternal Family Systems (IFS)More on Dr. Frank AndersonDr. Frank Anderson is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist, internationally recognized trauma expert, and author of Transcending Trauma and To Be Loved.

In this episode, we're looking at restriction urges: the urges that say, “Get it while you can.” These urges are often not just about hunger or cravings. They are scarcity alarms. Sometimes the scarcity is physical, like not eating enough or going too long without food. Sometimes it is psychological, like food rules, guilt, or the feeling that you are technically allowed to eat something but still shouldn't want it. Sometimes it comes from the threat of future restriction: “Tomorrow I'll be good,” “After this weekend I'm stopping,” “I need to drop a few pounds before vacation,” or “This is the last time.”The main question from this episode is: “What am I afraid there is not enough of?” Maybe the answer is food, satisfaction, dessert, time, pleasure, freedom, permission, comfort, choice, or rest. Once you can hear the scarcity signal, you can respond with reliable permission instead of more control.New to the show?

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about tears and why crying might be doing a lot more for your body than you ever realized. From a chance comment by a friend to an unexpected wave of emotion that followed just days later, Jenn opens up about her own relationship with crying, including a time when holding back tears felt like the only option. So what actually happens inside the body when we cry, and why are emotional tears so different from the ones triggered by a sliced onion? Jenn dives into decades-old research that uncovers surprising chemical differences between the two, and explains how crying might be connected to stress, sleep, and even the immune system. Is suppressing tears doing more harm than we think? Tune in to find out what Jenn has to say about the hidden science behind a good cry. Like what you're hearing?

Sugar is woven into our culture as a reward, a comfort and a celebration. But for some people, the relationship with food becomes far more complicated - and potentially life-threatening.Broadcaster and journalist Phil Williams has written with extraordinary candour about living with binge eating disorder and the hidden toll it took on his physical and mental health. In this Live Long conversation, he describes the shame, self-loathing and health scares that finally forced him to confront his addiction.It's a powerful reminder that living well isn't simply about adding years to life, but understanding the behaviours that can take those years away.This episode includes strong language.Phil on Substack: I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but you have a binge eating disorderIf you or someone you know is struggling with an eating disorder, help is available.UK: BEAT – the UK's eating disorder charityUK: NHS Eating DisordersUS: National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA)US: National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders (ANAD)US: National Alliance for Eating Disorders----DISCLOSURE: This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.

Most people trying to get healthier are losing a battle they don't know they're fighting. It's not a lack of information. It's not even a lack of effort. It's something quieter — the stories running beneath the surface, the environments they've stopped noticing, the split-second decisions that feel small until they're not.Martin Silva has spent 20 years coaching people out of the patterns that keep them stuck. A former competitive natural bodybuilder who hit the aesthetic ceiling and found it hollow, he now works with high-achievers in their 40s and 50s — people who are disciplined in every area of life except this one.In this conversation, Martin unpacks the real architecture of lasting change: why willpower always fails, how your circle quietly shapes your body, why doing less in the gym often produces more, and what it actually takes to stop starting over.The information was never the problem.BIG IDEAIt's way easier to avoid temptation than it is to resist it — and no one gets healthy by relying on willpower.Martin Silva - Contact InfoWebsite: OptimiseYourBody.comPodcast: Martin Silva FitnessInstagram: Martin Silva FitnessSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Maternal influence significantly shapes body image and eating habits. Emotional eating is intertwined with self-perception and family dynamics. Breaking negative cycles can lead to healthier family relationships. Empowerment comes from recognizing the ability to change one's story. Weight loss is less about the numbers and more about emotional health. Self-compassion and self-trust are essential for long-term change. Mothers have the most significant influence on their daughters' body image. The way we eat reflects our beliefs about ourselves and our worth. Transformation requires commitment and support from others. Healing wounds requires self-reliance and looking inward. Liberation comes from stopping the blame game. Maternal influence significantly shapes a daughter's body image. Self-compassion is crucial for mental health and healing. Radical responsibility is essential for personal growth. The relationship with one's body affects future generations. Negative self-talk can perpetuate cycles of trauma. Women often criticize each other, reflecting their own insecurities.

Bingeing can be painful and costly, but it often persists because it is doing a job.Not working because it is harmless or because you want to keep doing it, but because it may have been doing something important for you. Bingeing may provide relief, comfort, rest, numbness, pleasure, rebellion, privacy, or a way to get through moments that feel impossible.In this episode, we look at bingeing as a coping strategy that may have helped you survive, especially if it began when you were young and had fewer choices. The goal is not to romanticize bingeing, but to understand what need it has been meeting so you can begin meeting that need earlier, more directly, and with less harm.New to the show?

This is actually a pretty wild story. During my first year in my PhD, a woman reached out to me through the contact form on my website and was like, "Hey, we're doing similar work! I would love to connect." I starred the email as something I needed to follow up on and then it got completely buried in my inbox. Then, several months later, one of my teachers emailed me and said, "Did you see this dissertation defense coming up? It is on binge eating." I immediately marked it in my calendar as something I had to attend. I arrived at the Zoom dissertation defense and as soon as I see this woman's name I was like, "Why is this person's name sound so familiar?" I sneak off into my inbox and look up her name and lo and behold, it was the same person who emailed me a few months prior. Honestly, I initially felt mortified I had not followed up with her sooner, but I immediately emailed her after the defense was over. We scheduled a Zoom chat and it was amazing how much we had in common. We come from a similar lens that binge eating recovery needs a body-based approach. It is the body and experiencing it internally and externally that is missing from most recovery modalities. In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Kristina Dobyns, PhD, MA, Registered Somatic Movement Therapist, certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and certified Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention facilitator, about: What worked and didn't work in Kristina's binge eating recovery journeyWhat she discovered in her research on binge eatingThe importance of building somatic awareness and interoceptionThe role of sensory strategiesUtilizing nutrition as a part of binge eating recoveryChallenging conventional recovery approachesYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/body-based-strategies-for-binge-eatingYou're about to receive some game changing binge eating recovery strategies and I hope it feels helpful!With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Kristina here: Website: https://www.BeyondBingeEating.comYoutube: www.BeyondBingeEating.com/@BeyondBingeEatingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/BeyondBingeEating/FREE Eat-With-Awareness Bundle: https://beyondbingeeating.com/opt-in/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...

Emotional eating is not just about food. It is often connected to trauma, triggers, nervous system patterns, and deeply wired emotional responses.In this clip, we talk about how food can become a coping mechanism for stress, celebration, anxiety, pressure, grief, and self worth struggles. We also unpack why these patterns are not just about willpower and why healing them takes awareness, compassion, and time.If you have ever found yourself reaching for food without really being hungry, this conversation may help you understand why.

The First 60 Seconds: Don't Let the Urge Become a Story (The Urge Proof Life — Episode 4)There's a tiny moment when an urge first appears—before the binge, before the “might as well,” before the story starts writing itself. In this episode, Georgie explains why the first danger often isn't the urge itself, but the meaning we attach to it: I can't handle this, I already know how this ends, I'm going to binge.You'll learn the “two waves” of an urge: the first wave is sensation, and the second wave is interpretation. The skill in the first 60 seconds isn't to make the urge disappear or diagnose it perfectly, it's to meet it with boring neutrality: “This is an urge. That's all. It'll be here for a while, and then it will leave.” From there, you can choose one small support, and later use the Urge Map if needed.Try this week: Practice the boring sentence three times when an urge appears. You don't have to stop eating, solve the urge, or do anything perfectly. Just notice what happens when you decline the story.New to the show?

Stop Arguing With Your Cravings: A Conversation with Dr. Glenn LivingstonThis episode is a rare guest conversation on Breaking Up With Binge Eating. Georgie is joined by Dr. Glenn Livingston, psychologist, author, and creator of Defeat Your Cravings, for a wide-ranging conversation about binge eating, cravings, food rules, self-trust, and why insight alone often isn't enough to change an eating pattern.Glenn shares his own history with compulsive overeating, including how years of therapy and self-understanding helped him become kinder to himself, but did not automatically stop the binge eating. Together, Georgie and Glenn explore why emotional pain can be part of the picture without being the whole cause, how the brain can use old wounds as justification for continuing a pattern, and why clear lines or “guardrails” can sometimes reduce the mental negotiation that keeps cravings alive.They also talk about the modern food environment, hyper-palatable foods, intermittent fasting, perfectionism, self-forgiveness, and why it is often easier to prevent cravings upstream than to fight them once they are roaring. Glenn offers practical tools for identifying the thoughts that try to talk you into eating against your own best judgment, while Georgie brings in her perspective on under-eating, over-productivity, emotional needs, and the importance of responding to both hunger and fullness cues with care.A key theme in this conversation is that recovery does not have to be built on shame. You can aim clearly without attacking yourself when you miss. You can protect your recovery without making your life smaller. And you can become someone who takes your own needs seriously, even when that means being a little “weird” in public, packing food, skipping the dessert you don't want, or refusing to harm yourself with food for someone else's comfort.Try this week: Notice one craving or urge and write down the thought that tries to justify it. Is it futility? Permission? “I deserve this”? “I'll start tomorrow”? Then ask: what would actually support me here?You can learn more about Dr. Glenn Livingston and access his free resources at DefeatYourCravings.com.New to the show?

Send us Fan Mail In this second episode of our Loud Longings series, we explore how cravings are often about much more than food. What looks like a desire for sugar, bread, or chocolate can sometimes point to a deeper longing for comfort, safety, peace, or connection. We begin with a simple breath prayer from Psalm 139—“Search me and know me”—and invite ourselves into a posture of curiosity instead of self-judgment. Together, we discuss how emotionally charged cravings can carry memories, grief, and unmet needs, and why understanding the story behind them can open the door to greater compassion.We also share personal experiences with food and stress, reflecting on how Jesus meets us with tenderness in our places of need. Looking at His ministry around tables and His invitation as the Bread of Life and Living Water, we consider what it means to seek deeper nourishment when cravings become overwhelming.If a nostalgic craving surfaces this week, try pausing and asking, “What story is attached to this?” Then pray, “Jesus, meet me inside of this memory, meet me here.” Subscribe for the rest of this series, share this with a friend who feels stuck, and if it helps, leave a review, so more listeners can find hope and freedom.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

"For years I believed happiness lived in a smaller body. What I finally learned was that healing my relationship with myself was the real transformation." -Lauren Rojas   What if the hardest part of weight loss isn't the food—it's the emotional story you've been carrying your entire life? In this powerful episode of Turmeric & Tequila, Kristen Olson sits down with wellness coach Lauren Rojas to discuss her 30+ year journey through diet culture, emotional eating, weight loss surgery, food addiction recovery, and ultimately finding peace with her body.

From Weight Watchers and fad diets to food addiction programs, CrossFit, and bariatric surgery, Lauren reveals the lessons she learned along the way and how she now helps women transform their relationship with food, body image, and self-worth. Together, Kristen and Lauren explore the impact of reality television, The Biggest Loser, social pressure, emotional eating, body acceptance, self-awareness, and the importance of reconnecting mind, body, and spirit.

Have you ever felt like you know what to do when it comes to your health… but something keeps pulling you back into the same patterns? Maybe it's emotional eating. Maybe it's chronic stress. Maybe it's gut issues, hormone imbalances, sugar cravings, or feeling disconnected from your body despite your best efforts. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Des sits down with Amber Romaniuk, Emotional Eating, Digestive and Hormone Expert, to explore the deeper connection between our emotions, nervous system, hormones, digestion, and relationship with food. Amber shares her incredible personal journey of overcoming emotional eating, balancing her hormones and digestion, and breaking free from the self-sabotaging patterns that kept her stuck for years. Together, we discuss why healing often goes far beyond nutrition plans and willpower, and how true health starts with addressing the thoughts, beliefs, and stressors driving our behaviors. If you've ever felt frustrated by cravings, emotional eating, hormone symptoms, digestive issues, or feeling like you're constantly starting over with your health, this episode is packed with insight, compassion, and hope. In This Episode, We Explore: ✨ The connection between emotional eating and the nervous system ✨ Why willpower alone often isn't enough to change behaviors ✨ How chronic stress impacts digestion, hormones, and cravings ✨ The relationship between gut health and emotional well-being ✨ Why high-achieving women often struggle with self-care and burnout ✨ The hidden beliefs and patterns that keep women stuck ✨ How body image and self-worth influence health behaviors ✨ The role of intuition, self-awareness, and mindset in healing ✨ What true "Body Freedom™" looks like Meet Amber Romaniuk Amber Romaniuk is an Emotional Eating, Digestive and Hormone Expert with over 12 years of experience helping high-achieving women build body confidence, improve their health, and overcome self-sabotage with food through mindset healing, self-care, and nervous system support. After overcoming her own struggles with emotional eating, hormone imbalances, digestive challenges, and decades of limiting beliefs, Amber now helps women create lasting transformation and freedom in their relationship with food and their bodies. She is also the host of The No Sugarcoating Podcast, with more than 2 million downloads, 600+ episodes, and listeners in over 90 countries.

Our hormones, digestion, nervous system, emotions, stress levels, and beliefs are all connected. When we begin addressing the whole picture, we create a foundation for sustainable health, improved energy, better digestion, balanced hormones, and a healthier relationship with ourselves.

Start Here: https://breakingupwithbingeeating.transistor.fm/start-here Pick the listening path that fits what you're dealing with right now.Show Notes: Have you ever thought, “I don't even like this that much… so why do I still want more?” In this episode, Georgie explains the difference between wanting and liking—and why urges can stay loud even when pleasure is fading.You'll learn how wanting and liking are supported by partly different brain systems: dopamine-heavy motivation circuits help generate the “go get it” drive, while pleasure is more tied to hedonic circuits involving opioid and endocannabinoid signaling. The takeaway: drive and pleasure can decouple. That's why food can feel magnetic even when it's not actually delivering much satisfaction.Georgie also walks through three common reasons wanting can run hotter than liking: cues and habit loops, scarcity, and stress or depletion. You'll learn how to use a not worth it list, a pleasure check, and the concept of diminishing returns to interrupt the trance of “more will fix it.”Try this week: Pick one risk food or one risk time when wanting tends to get loud. If you eat, pause partway through and ask: “Am I actually liking this, or am I chasing relief?” If liking is low, try one re-route action from your urge map: nourishment, soft landing, soothing, permission with structure, or breaking a cue chain.Coming next: What to do in the first 60 seconds of an urge—before it escalates and before you start negotiating with yourself.
