“Once food noise quiets down, it doesn’t just change the way we eat. It changes the way we live.”
Food struggles don't always show up as we may expect. They can sneak up on us, disguised as discipline, willpower, or our latest attempt at “being good.” But in reality, those all-consuming thoughts about what, when, and how much we eat are draining. They're like an app running in the background, sapping our energy and joy each day. In this episode, I sit down with Kim, a past client who spent decades tangled in food noise, emotional eating, and hidden food rules she didn’t realize existed.
Kim opens up about the reality of secret eating, binge cycles, and the mental toll of battling cravings. Her story is vulnerable, honest, and incredibly relatable. Kim shares what it was like to numb out around food, the shift from excitement to guilt after eating, and how food secretly dictated her self-care, identity, and social life. But things changed, and Kim’s journey will show you how healing your relationship with food is not only possible, but transformative.
Together, we explore how intuitive eating moved Kim away from relying on willpower and food rules, toward genuine self-compassion, body reconnection, and emotional growth. Whether you’re used to white knuckling through cravings or hiding evidence of what you ate, Kim’s personal wins, tips, and breakthroughs will give you a clearer lens for spotting sneaky food rules and freeing up mental space so that you can enjoy food on your terms.
