It’s been a while since I’ve sent you a new note or video, mainly because I’ve been down for the count. In fact, I’ve been on the receiving end of what I often refer to as the “forced time-out.” It’s something I’ve coached numerous clients through, but I never thought it would happen to me.…
“I’m so weak.” “I have no willpower.” “I’m out of control.” These are the statements I usually hear from my clients after they’ve experienced a food binge. And I get it, I used to have those same thoughts too. Every time I experienced a binge (which at one period in my life was multiple times…
So here we are into the second week of 2016, and I’ve already bombed royally on my New Years intentions. I did all the stuff you’re supposed to do. Mapped out my vision, got clear on my core desired feelings, came up with my themes for the year, and made my first awesome to-do list… Create 4 new…
Last week I had the opportunity to attend an incredible 3-day retreat on how to create healthier, more fulfilling relationships. My eyes were opened in so many ways, and had some huge a-has about all the things I’ve been doing wrong for so many years! OMG! But what I learned was about far more than…
It’s so funny, when I tell people I’m an eating psychology coach I get all kinds of interesting responses. Usually what I hear is some version of apology or embarrassment for what they are eating (especially if we’re at a luncheon), some assumption that I must eat perfectly, or just a general “what the heck…
Freedom is hands down the most common hunger I hear from the women I work with. They want to be free. Free to eat. Free to live. Free to love. Free to be their true selves. It’s what I YEARNED for all those years that I struggled with my eating and body image. But while…
How was your Valentine’s Day? Did you practice the tips for self-love that I shared with you last week? If there’s one thing I know with 100% certainty, it’s that being loving toward yourself in thoughts and actions is an essential part of healing your relationship with food. And I know it’s not easy, especially…
I’m a total dork. I’ll admit it, I am almost always surrounded by piles of personal growth books… they’re on my bed, piled on my desk, and strewn all about my meditation space. One might say that in the way I used to binge on food I nowbinge on personal development (a much healthier habit IMO!)…
I may get kicked out of the personal growth field for saying this, but I hate the whole New Year’s intentions thing. Every year it bugs me to see all the directives to map out your year, or list your goals, or make another vision board or what have you. Don’t get me wrong, I think…
Whether you love it or hate it (yes, some people do), Thanksgiving is here. It’s the official food holiday of the year, and the kickoff to an entire season of parties, family gatherings and abundant food spreads. This can be a dicey season for many people, particularly those who struggle to maintain their weight, health or…
