Do you feel frustrated that you’re doing “all the things” in the pursuit of health and yet, feel the furthest from being the healthiest version of yourself? In this episode, we’re going to explore how disordered eating habits are commonly disguised as “health habits” and why exactly you continue to feel stuck and crazy around food.

In this episode we discuss:

  • 4 common “health habits” that are actually disordered eating habits

  • The expectation to be “perfect” with eating and why it’s hurting you

  • The diet/restriction – binge cycle many people are in without realizing it

  • What happens when you label a food as being “bad”

  • The “forbidden fruit” nature we bring to food and how it makes us want “bad” foods more

  • Mindful eating strategies as the antidote to emotional eating or binge eating

  • Kale and chips: how they can coexist in your diet and you can still be healthy

  • Why willpower and self-control don’t actually exist

Break free from your food fears and learn how to bring the chips, chocolate, bread, and ice cream into your house, enjoy it, then move on – without the guilt, without obsessing, without willpower.
