A Deep Dive into ’All or Nothing Thinkin...

HARRIET FREW
About this episode

Today I’m speaking to Amber Romaniuk who is a returning guest to the Eating Disorder Therapist Podcast. Amber is an Emotional Eating, Digestive and Hormone Expert who helps professional women achieve optimal health through mindful eating, self-care and overcoming self-sabotage with food.

Her podcast “The No Sugarcoating Podcast” has a million downloads, over 300 episodes and is listened to, in over 88 countries. She was featured on TV Personality Whitney Port’s podcast and has also appeared on local TV 50 times in the last three years alone.

Amber overcame her own emotional eating, after gaining and losing more than 1000 lbs and spending over $50,000 on binge foods and spending 5 years balancing her hormones and digestion. Now she helps others achieve Body Freedom™ so they have the confidence and health to create amazing lives.

In this episode, Amber explores all or nothing approaches to food, life, work, relationships and more. Many of us can identify with an ‘all or nothing’ approach to life. Maybe you’re wondering about the impact of your genetics or environment and understanding why you’re an all or nothing person. Maybe you’re feeling that it’s impossible to change and you are resigned to live like this? Amber does a deep dive into this topic and gives a multitude of tips and wisdom on how to find a more balanced place of harmony and healing for everyone, drawing on her own lived experience and through many years of supporting her clients.

I hope that you enjoy the conversation.
