How do you get to ease and peace with food? If I How do you get to ease and peace with food? If I boil it down…my journey with food began around restriction, in an effort to control my body…because I was seeking love and acceptance. I never felt good enough and was criticized a lot. So I thought if I could get to “that place” I’d finally feel ok. I restricted food, only to use it to soothe my emotions. I tried so many things and what I tried didn’t help. The diets, the therapy, the nutritionist, the trainer… When the noise got too loud I flipped my life upside down. I moved to Korea thinking I could start fresh, but I felt more out of control. So I decided to do things in a new way. I rolled up my sleeves and put my scientist hat on. I started to nourish my body, not restrict. I started to accept my body when I didn’t like what I saw in the mirror. And I started feeling all the things that I tried to run away from. And somehow that got me closer to what I was really craving - love and acceptance. I didn’t expect my body to change but it did. I had more energy, better digestion, I wanted to workout, I felt more confident and my body started to let go of the mental and physical weight I was carrying. I started to see food as food, not a bandaid, I started to live in my body not only focus on what it looked like and I started to meet my emotional needs and care for myself. The result was the ease and peace I was looking for, but I got so much more than that. And this was the foundation to The Emotional Eating Evolution Program. Emotional eating is multilayered and in order to resolve it you need a process. If you’re looking for support DM “clarity” to learn more about how I can support you✨
Why you keep hitting the same wall (as an emotiona Why you keep hitting the same wall (as an emotional eater) I recently spoke to a woman who had been working with a nutritionist for a few months, but she kept hitting the same wall. She was still binging at night, she was blocked grocery shopping, and wasn’t making time for meals. She felt she was sabotaging herself. And this is what I help clients with - all of the things under the surface keeping you from taking the actions that would support you. The simple things like make a meal, eat when you’re hungry, move your body, etc. But it’s not that simple when you’re an emotional eater you use food as a coping mechanism to soothe and comfort yourself which makes the simple todos harder. When I work with clients in The Emotional Eating Evolution Program we’re resolving emotional eating at the root so you can start nourishing yourself, accepting yourself and moving through the emotions running the show. We’re clearing the blocks so you can get to ease and peace around food and in your body in a more effortless way. If you’d like support in your journey book in an Emotional Eating Clarity call so see how I can support you. Link in bio or DM “clarity” to chat✨
The Diet Lie That’s Keeping You Stuck in Emotional The Diet Lie That’s Keeping You Stuck in Emotional Eating What if I told you one of the biggest reasons you’re struggling with emotional eating isn’t about the amount of calories you’re consuming? It’s the way you’re thinking about your food. For so many years, we’ve been taught that food is calories in equals calories out. Control this food. Move more. Eat less. Count everything. Eat this macro. Don’t eat this macro. Essentially, control everything. What if I told you that thinking this way is pulling you further from your body and further away from healing your emotional eating? When you’re an emotional eater, typically what happens is that you are trying all of these diets to control food because that’s what you see on the surface. You feel out of control with food. You don’t feel like you have a handle on food. You see the scale creeping up. You don’t feel good in your body. Your health is deteriorating, and you’re like, “if only I could control the food.” But that only looks at the surface. Food is really the last place you need to look. While it’s important to have a healthy relationship to food and to learn how to nourish yourself, it is not going to be the place that transforms your emotional eating. You have to look deeper.

One of the hardest things I had to do to resolve m One of the hardest things I had to do to resolve my emotional eating… Was to accept my body. Because I used to think I had to fit into the box to be accepted, approved of and loved. And my story is no different to the women I work with. So I restricted food, went to the gym. But I also struggled with emotional eating. So when I reached my goal I thought I was “fixed” but it was fleeting. My feelings of not good enough came back along with my emotional eating. I had built my self worth on sand and it crumbled. I had to learn to accept my body as it was, to build up my enoughness from the inside. And paradoxically my body started to shift to its healthy. I didn’t have to effort with food or my body. I wanted to nourish myself and move my body because I was resolving my emotional eating. Food was no longer the enemy and could just be what it was food and my body could be a body without shame and move. This is part of what we work on inside of The Emotional Eating Evolution Program so you can get to ease and peace around food and in your body.

To resolve emotional eating you need to do the opp To resolve emotional eating you need to do the opposite of what you’re doing. When I was trying to stop my out of control behaviour with food I thought I had to control my food, my body and my emotions. But it was the opposite. 
I had to shift from dieting and restriction and not listening to what my body was saying to learning when I was hungry and nourishing it. (And when I was emotionally hungry). I also had to learn to accept my body right now! Not when I reached a certain body fat percentage of fit into a certain box. This acceptance helped to stop the shame spirals that would trigger my emotional eating. It also allowed my body to get to “my healthy” I also had to learn to move through my emotions. When I was in therapy I didn’t actually understand my emotions, I was taught to flip my thoughts not get to the root. I had to learn to get to the root of what what triggering my emotional eating (unresolved emotions) and resolve them so I would stop using food as a bandaid. I literally had to unlearn all the thing I thought I had to do the finally feel ok with food and in my body. And this was was much less painful and in the long run it’s effortless because I actually looked at the root and resolved it. And it’s what I teach my clients in The Emotional Eating Evolution Program. If you’d like support in your journey then book in an emotional eating clarity call to see how I can support you in the program. DM or comment clarity✨
Can AI Heal Emotional Eating? Here’s What I Really Can AI Heal Emotional Eating? Here’s What I Really Think Recently, someone left a comment on one of my YouTube videos saying that she had used AI to help her find the root of her emotional eating. As I was reading her message, she mentioned she’d never tried somatic work. What that told me was that, even though she had used a tool like AI to find what she believed was the root, it was still very much a cognitive understanding of her emotional eating. AI can give you awareness. It can help you sort of pinpoint patterns. It’s pulling in a lot of knowledge from the internet, and it can help you. But ultimately, you are the authority on what is the actual root of your emotional eating. What I’ve found with clients is that without doing the deeper work in your body, what you think is the root might not be the root of your pattern. And finding the root of your emotional eating doesn’t equal healing. You actually have to do the embodied work to heal the root of your emotional eating. I think AI is similar to talk therapy in that it can provide a great deal of awareness and insight. But both stop at the cognitive level. Healing emotional eating is not just an awareness issue. Awareness is the first step. Let’s dive into what AI can actually help you with, where it might be most useful and what the limitations of it is. Comment or DM “AI” and I’ll send you the full video✨
Why willpower doesn’t work to help your emotional Why willpower doesn’t work to help your emotional eating (and what does)👇🏽 Your willpower is like using 5% of your total power to do something. You emotional eating pattern which is subconscious has 95% of your power to do something because it’s been there for a long time. When your emotional eating is triggered it is like a snow ball rolling down the hill. It feels automatic and like something possessed you. You don’t have to think about it - much like driving a car from point A to B and not realizing how you got there. When you use your willpower to suppress the urge to eat, withhold food or fight hunger (whether true or emotional) you can do it for a while. But much like pulling a rubber band to it’s max, your emotional eating will snap back with a force. You’ll feel out of control after being “so good” and like you are possessed ordering Uber eats blindly. Because after withholding the only thing you have to soothe your emotions, your pattern will intensify. In order to resolve this you need to learn to truly nourish your body and to move resolve what is triggering your emotional eating at the root. This is what we do inside of The Emotional Eating Evolution Program so that you can get to ease and peace around food and in your body. If you’d like a first step in resolving your emotional eating then grab my free guide to catch your pattern. Comment or DM “guide” and I’ll send it over✨
How intuitive eating is keeping you stuck in emoti How intuitive eating is keeping you stuck in emotional eating. I remember when I was trying to control my behaviour with food with diets and I reached this breaking point where I threw everything out the window and started to eat whatever came to mind. I also moved to Korea to start over thinking this would help me. What I soon realized was that eating whatever I wanted didn’t make me feel free or healthy. I didn’t improve my relationship to food or feel good in my body. I knew I had to change something. Intuitive eating doesn’t help you with emotional eating or knowing what nourishes you. I had to figure out step by step what foods felt good in my body vs. what food popped into my mind. And to discern if I actually wanted that food or was using it to soothe my emotions. As I healed my emotional eating and learned to nourish myself I started to have true intuitive eating. Intuitive eating is a great concept but it’s missing vital steps for emotional eaters. Inside of The Emotional Eating Evolution Program we close that gab so you can ge to ease and peace around food and in your body. If you’d like to get started resolving your emotional eating then grab my free guide to start discerning true from emotional hunger. Comment or DM “guide” and I’ll send it over✨
The Real Reason You Can’t Stop Emotional Eating: Y The Real Reason You Can’t Stop Emotional Eating: Your Protective Parts (And How to Transform Them) Have you ever felt like there were two people living inside of you? One part says, “I’m going to eat healthy this week.” Then immediately another part jumps in and says, “Just have the cookies, just do it.” Then another part jumps in and says, “What’s wrong with you? Why can’t you just be disciplined? Why can’t you stick to eating a certain way? Why can’t you just have some more willpower?” And if this sounds familiar to you, it’s not that you’re crazy, and it’s not that you’re broken. It’s because you have different protective parts that come into play as you navigate your relationship to food (and your emotions). They’re trying to help you, but they’re using strategies that no longer work. Today, I want to show you why these parts exist and how transforming them can help you heal your emotional eating. Let’s dive in. Comment or DM “parts” and I’ll send you the full video✨
