What if I told you that sometimes trusting your intuition won’t help you break overeating habits? In fact, there are ways that your brain as well as your thoughts and beliefs will actually mislead you - even when you’re determined to stop emotional eating or end a habit of eating too much junk food or using food for self-care. You can retrain your brain. You can build new habits. You CAN create peace with food and freedom from overeating. Sometimes it requires counterintuitive steps and approaches. In this episode I’m sharing some unexpected advice on how to make ending overeating easier and how to create new habits that last with some counterintuitive advice.

In this episode:

• Focusing beyond what to eat and when
• Starting small
• How your brain resists what works (and why)
• The problem with habit stacking
• Accountability isn’t always helpful
• Avoiding fake positivity
