Have you ever said, "I know what to eat… I just can't stop eating when I'm emotional"?
You can feel calm and confident all day—then nighttime hits. You're tired, stressed, overwhelmed… and suddenly food feels like comfort, relief, or escape. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you.
In this conversation, I'm talking honestly about emotional eating in midlife—and why it often gets louder during perimenopause and menopause. TIt's not that you're weak—it's stress, changing hormones, and a nervous system that's feeling everything more deeply now.… and why food has been doing a job for you.
We'll talk about why emotional eating is normal (especially in this season), how urges actually work in the brain, and the practical tools I teach my clients to help them pause, name what they're feeling, and stop reacting on autopilot. No shame. No punishment. Just real tools that build self-trust and freedom over time.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or stuck in the same cycle, I want you to know—there is hope, and you're not failing.
