Olivia is a triathlete, IronMan athlete, and my lovely past group coaching client. Olivia came to me after decades of a tumultuous relationship with food. From Weight Watchers to binge eating, she was READY to heal. When she started group coaching, she was actively training for an IronMan (which if you don't know consists of a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bicycle ride, and a marathon 26.22-mile run completed in that order, a total of 140.6 miles--WOW). Her story is inspiring, relatable, and...

You've likely heard me say to tune in to how food makes you feel after eating it, but what does that actually mean?  Sometimes it is very clear when something doesn't make you feel so good, like when you immediately have some sort of symptom following eating like a stomach ache, heart burn, reflux, etc. But those more direct and obvious symptoms aren't the majority of signals we can use to best attune to our body and meet our needs. That's what we're getting into today! ------- Need...

Have you ever heard a podcast or watched a YouTube video by a well-known, qualified professional that just left you feeling like you just need to cut out more food in order to lose weight to be healthy? It can be such a head spin... I have some favorite self-help youtubers and podcasters that I like to listen to, but I get whiplash with the random health advice: - Don't eat sugar - Fast until noon - Cold plunge! I know to tune out the "black and white" rules that aren't helpful or...

Binge eating is common enough with ADHDers that some sources recommend screening for it with an ADHD diagnosis. Contrary to stereotypes, ADHDers don't just binge impulsively because they are seeking dopamine for pleasure. Yes, dopamine plays a role in ADHD symptoms, but binge eating often stems from more unmet needs – physical, emotional, or psychological.  This is what we are diving into today! We chat about soooo much (and yet still…not enough) related to the intersection of ADHD and...

Did you know that you are about 3-4x more likely to struggle with binge eating if you have PCOS?  It makes sense for two reasons: the metabolic changes that increase hunger and cravings, and the physical symptoms.  So..

How can you take a weight-neutral approach? We're covering all this and...

Hi hello! Welcome back to Behind The Binge Podcast. Last week I had a discovery call with someone who was interested in my coaching program. She was skeptical about my methods since another intuitive eating coach told her to just eat whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted, and she would eventually stop binge eating... She was told that any sort of structure on her journey to healing her relationship with food is restrictive. After releasing all rules and trying to just "listen to her...

Today we are joined by my past group coaching client, Emily H. Emily was part of behind the binge academy for 6 months starting in February 2022. When she first started, she struggled with the all-or-nothing mentality.

Can you relate? On her application for behind the binge academy, she mentioned...

Today I want to talk about meal prep as it relates to one of the first things I implement with my clients when it comes to healing our relationships with food which is consistent eating patterns.

Last week was a particularly tough week, where I couldn’t stop thinking about food. I noticed several times I got up to the pantry to grab something to eat after lunch. Do I still binge? What happens when I feel urges? I know this can seem scary to some, especially for those still on the journey to food freedom. On the pod today, I wanted to discuss my own experience with binge eating, more specifically, what life is like after recovering from binge-eating. I wanted to share my experiences...
