Did you know dieting can actually disconnect you from your body’s natural hunger signals?

In this episode, I’m opening up about my personal journey with dieting—and how the constant noise of diet culture led me down a path of confusion, emotional eating, and disconnection from my body.

We live in a world where we’re told what to eat, when to eat, and how much to eat… and yet, so many of us feel more lost than ever. I share how these mixed messages impacted my relationship with food—and how I eventually found my way back to intuitive eating and self-trust.

I’ll break down how dieting messes with our instincts, why it triggers stress and binge eating, and how you can start healing by tuning back in to your body.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel stuck, this episode is for you. You’ll walk away with powerful mindset shifts and practical steps to rebuild a healthy, lasting relationship with food—without the guilt, shame, or rigid rules.
