Many people struggle with food in ways that feel confusing or frustrating. They may try diet after diet, only to find themselves returning to the same patterns. This can leave them feeling ashamed, out of control, or wondering why willpower alone never seems to solve the problem.
In this episode, emotional eating expert Tricia Nelson shares her personal story of losing 50 pounds and keeping it off after years of binge eating and dieting. Tricia lost fifty pounds by identifying and healing the underlying causes of her emotional eating and now helps others do the same. She is an Emotional Eating Expert and TEDx speaker whose talk has garnered over 2 million views on YouTube. She is also the author of the #1 bestselling book Heal Your Hunger: 7 Simple Steps to End Emotional Eating Now, the host of the popular podcast The Heal Your Hunger Show, and has spent over thirty years researching the hidden causes of the addictive personality. Her work has been featured on NBC, CBS, KTLA, FOX, and Discovery Health.
Tricia breaks down the emotional eating spectrum and how people can begin recognizing where they fall within it. She discusses why diets frequently fail, how people-pleasing and overdoing can contribute to emotional eating, and simple tools that can help someone begin changing their relationship with food.
We’ll explore:
✔️ The difference between emotional eating, binge eating, and food addiction
✔️ Why diets often fail for emotional eaters
✔️ How people pleasing and overcommitment contribute to overeating
✔️ The PEP test to help identify emotional triggers behind eating
✔️ Simple habits that can help rebuild a healthier relationship with food
