Break Free from Emotional Eating, Overeating, and Mindless Snacking with the Eating Habits for Life Podcast
Are you tired of feeling out of control with food? And thinking that you must be lacking willpower?
Whether it’s emotional eating, mindless snacking, binge eating or battling intense cravings, it can feel like food has more control over you than you have over it.
And if you’re trying to lose weight, feel healthier, or more energized, bad eating habits are likely interfering.
But here’s the truth: it’s not that you lack willpower. Those bad eating habits mainly have to do with habit loops and emotions.
So no more relying on willpower. And certainly no more dieting or restriction. If you’re looking for practical solutions that actually work, the Eating Habits for Life podcast is here to help.

Why This Podcast is Different
The Eating Habits for Life podcast focuses on small, doable changes you can make, even on a busy, stressful day. No calorie-counting, deprivation, or “eating perfectly” required.
Each week, you’ll discover:
- Behavioral science-backed strategies
- Practical and sustainable solutions for lasting (not temporary) change
- Mindset shifts to help make the actions easier
Here are some topics covered in the podcast… and what you can expect for how the podcast helps you overcome them.
Mindless Eating & Snacking
Feel like you end up snacking during your workday without even knowing why? It can leave you frustrated, knowing you’ve eaten more than you needed and disrupted your weight loss goals.
This is mindless eating, also known as habitual eating.
Mindless eating can happen while watching TV, working, or in other sneaky ways. On the podcast, I teach you how to identify and break these unconscious patterns so you can be more intentional with your eating.
- How to feel satisfied without overeating
- How to recognize your eating triggers
- Simple strategies to break automatic eating habits
When you have awareness of what and how much you’re eating, you’ll enjoy it more and avoid overeating. Subscribe/Follow the Show

Overeating & Portion Control
Do you find yourself eating past the point of fullness, even when you don’t intend to? Or maybe you don’t feel overly full, but you KNOW you’re eating more food throughout the day than you need.
Overeating is often caused by habit, emotions, or external cues, and doesn’t mean anything bad about you. In the podcast, I help you have compassion for yourself, so you don’t spiral when you overeat.
I also break down:
- Practical ways to naturally eat less without counting calories
