Sometimes the patterns we most want to change are the ones that have kept us afloat. In today’s episode on One Body to Love, I open up about the role binge eating has played in my own life, and how it often serves as a coping strategy when everything else feels like too much. We explore what it looks like to move from control and chaos into safety and softness with food, and why fear doesn’t mean you're not ready, it means this matters to you. If you’ve been spiraling at night, trying to be "good" during the day, or scared of what happens if you stop controlling food, this episode is for you.

In this episode, you will hear:
• 02:41 - How food becomes a release valve when we’re holding everything else together.
• 04:09 - My personal story: restriction, nighttime spirals, and starting over.
• 06:36 - Challenging the cultural script that tells us to shrink.• 08:56 - Learning to respond to your body instead of managing it.
• 09:52 - A closer look at the One Body to Love program: Coaching, journaling, workshops and a supportive community.
• 12:16 - How to register, and what’s coming next on the show.

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of starting over, feeling like food is either all or nothing, or carrying the weight of shame alone - the One Body to Love program was created to offer you support, structure, and a safe space to heal. If you want more details or you’re curious whether this is the right next step for you, comment “LOVE” on any of my Instagram posts and I’ll send you everything you need to know. If you've been waiting for the sign, this is it.

Don’t forget, Jamie’s story is coming later this week, and her journey from binging in secret to trusting herself again might be exactly what your heart needs to hear. Until next time, be so gentle with yourself. You deserve a life that feels peaceful around food, grounded in your body, and rooted in self-trust.
