The Dear Body Podcast

Alright, we’re back! It’s been a minute, and so much has changed since we last hung out. So this is a bit of a chaotic life update. First off—we’re moving! Big changes in like 3 days! I’m in a weird, messy war with myself. Who I’ve been vs. who I’m becoming—it’s exciting, it’s painful, and it’s definitely growth. I’m reading Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself by Dr. Joe Dispenza. It’s helping me shed the version of myself I no longer want to be, and I’m sharing the practices that are making the biggest impact. There might be a (part-time) in-home daycare in the works. Big maybe, but it’s something I’m considering! (I miss my baby, ughhhh) My husband is pitching the idea of matching tattoos. He’s serious. I’m... undecided. I’m expanding my coaching practice. For 2025, I’m offering both group coaching and 1:1 coaching to help women break free from binge and emotional eating struggles. Want to Work with Me? The Food Freedom Online Program will have both group and 1:1 coaching options in 2025, both will be by application only.

Alright, for my high-achievers, let’s talk about why things still aren’t clicking in your relationship with food. The same strengths—discipline, routine, structure— that help you crush it in other areas might be working against you when it comes to feeling in control with food. It’s frustrating. You’re used to getting results, but with food, your diet, feeling good in your body, it feels like everything falls apart. If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I figure this out?”—you’re not alone. I unpack why strong, high-achieving women often struggle with food and body image, and take it as personal failure when, in reality, you just need a different approach.
