You aren't a bad person for wanting choc...

Gretchen Palmer
About this episode

Today I felt impressed to share how I've spent years making the fact that I eat and use outside sources to make myself feel better and I made that mean that I'm a bad person.
I discovered that when I admit to wanting chocolate the extra suffering and negative self talk goes away because I'm not lying to myself! I'm admitting I want it and that's it!

Wanting and eating certain foods don't make us good or bad! What makes us believe we are bad is believing the things we tell ourselves. We get to decide who we are, not some food that gets put into our mouths! And if you are doing this, this episode will help you stop!

Enjoy!
