In this conversation, we talk about emotional eating and why knowing what to do does not always make it easy to follow through. Michelle explains how stress, the nervous system, shame and old emotional patterns can shape our relationship with food. Why struggling with those patterns does not mean there is something wrong with us.

She also shares simple, practical tools that can help us slow down, become more aware of what we are feeling, and create a pause before reaching for food. We get into meditation, habit stacking, body image, self-acceptance, and how parts work can help us approach ourselves with more curiosity and compassion.

If you have ever felt frustrated with yourself around food or tired of spending so much mental energy thinking about your body, I think this conversation will feel both validating and really helpful. Thank you Michelle!
