289. Three Things I Most Often Hear from You When Considering Truce with Food & FREE BREAKTHROUGH SESSION THIS WED. (Jan. 8th)!
After nearly 300 episodes of the Insatiable Podcast, I know you likely understand food challenges intellectually—now it's time for real change.Join me, Ali, for a FREE breakthrough session that will transform your relationship with food. This Wednesday (Jan. 8th) at noon EST, I'm hosting Stop the Quick Fix Cycle: Why Band-Aid Solutions Make Emotional Eating Worse (and How to Actually Get Results). In this episode, I briefly address 3 of the things I most often hear from people considering Truce with Food:1) "I've tried everything" – Learn why emotional safety and belonging are the missing pieces.2) "I know what works; I just can't stick with it" – Discover how unmet emotional needs, not willpower, affect your consistency.3) "If there were a solution, I would have found it by now" – See why knowledge isn't enough and why you've been looking in the wrong direction (along with most of the nutrition and fitness industry)At this free breakthrough session, we'll dive deeper into these three beliefs and you'll hear direcly from past participants who've achieved sustainable and lasting transformation with their relationship to food. And you'll learn how to set transformational goals (and how they're different from traditional health and weight loss goal setting).
