"It's not a matter of discipline that's actually keeping you away from achieving your health loss goals. It is your nervous system." - Sherry Shaban
In this episode, we will dive deep into rewiring the subconscious patterns that shape our eating habits and other challenging behaviors. I’ll be sharing personal stories and insights to help you understand how childhood experiences influence the way we act today.
We’ll talk about common self-sabotaging patterns—like parental disapproval syndrome and even unconscious fears that hold us back from reaching our health and personal goals. I’ll also explain how tools like hypnotherapy can help uncover hidden beliefs stored in our nervous system, shaping the way we think, react, and live.
By recognizing and interrupting these thought loops, we can break free from protection mode, regulate our emotions, and finally create the transformation we’ve been searching for. Let’s do this together!

If you've ever felt like food has power over you, I hope this conversation brings you comfort and inspiration. You’re not alone, and healing is possible.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right—eating well, exercising, pushing yourself—but your body just won’t let go of fat, there’s a reason.
Your nervous system is either in Protection Mode (fight-or-flight) or Safety Mode (rest-and-digest)—and fat release only happens in Safety Mode. But if your body feels unsafe? It clings to fat, slows metabolism, and even triggers binge eating and self-sabotage.
Think about it. You go through stress, and suddenly you’re reaching for food you swore you wouldn’t touch. You’re not weak—it’s biology. When your body is in survival mode, it’s wired to conserve energy and seek quick fuel. That’s why unwanted eating behaviors feel so out of control sometimes.
But here’s the kicker: fat loss isn’t just about burning calories—it’s about making your body feel safe enough to let go.
So the real question is—are you pushing your body into Protection Mode without even realizing it? Because if you are, no amount of dieting or exercise is going to override survival mode.
It’s time to stop fighting your body and start working with it.
