Losing someone you love sucks. Whether it’s through death, divorce or a relationship that’s no longer working…the feelings that accompany loss are some of the hardest for us to feel. That’s why grief is one of the scariest emotions for us, and one that often sends us to the kitchen looking for comfort, until we learn a better way. In this episode, I bring you two really valuable conversations on how to navigate the painful emotion of grief.

Shame is one of the deepest, most painful emotions that emotional eaters harbor—often rooted in childhood wounds, trauma, and even abuse. But what if shame isn’t who you are, but rather a story you've simply believed? In this episode, I dive into how shame fuels emotional eating, keeping us trapped in cycles of self-loathing and food obsession. I’ll also share powerful ways to break free, including self-compassion, vulnerability, and practical steps to reclaim your worth.

Fear is a big driver of emotional eating. We worry about failing, making mistakes, or losing control—so we turn to food for comfort. But living in fear keeps us stuck, scanning for worst-case scenarios and trying to control everything. In this episode, I share how fear showed up in my life, why it’s such a common trait among emotional eaters, and how shifting from fear to faith can bring peace and freedom.
