The Guilt Hangover - Why Food Isn’t the Problem and This Is If Thanksgiving leaves you feeling guilty… you’re not alone.

You’ll learn: Why guilt after holiday eating isn’t a sign you “did something wrong” How shame hijacks your mindset long after the meal is over Instead of beating yourself up for being human on Thanksgiving, this episode helps you understand what your emotions are trying to tell you…and how to create an enjoyable Thanksgiving.

Holiday Hunger - When It’s Not About the Food
Holiday Hunger - When It’s Not About the Food Thanksgiving is around the corner (whether you celebrate it or not)... and the holiday mindset is already in full swing: comfort food, nostalgia, and that little voice saying, “It’s fine… I’ll start again in January.” But what if your holiday cravings have nothing to do with food? In this episode, we unpack why you might find yourself halfway through a slice of pumpkin pie wondering, “Why did I even want this?” It’s rarely about the pie. It’s about the emotions, memories, and patterns your brain has linked to food since childhood. You’ll learn: Why “holiday hunger” isn’t physical…it’s emotional and situational How old family patterns can sneak back in and hijack your eating Why resisting cravings makes them louder The real reason holidays feel so triggering for women over 40 What your emotional cravings are really trying to communicate 3 simple Thanksgiving strategies And because I love you… I’m giving you a sneak peek into a powerful new resource I’m creating: The Mind–Body Reset for Women Over 40: 5 Mindset Shifts That Help Your Body Work With You, Not Against You. It’s a deep, transformational ebook designed to help you understand your body, your mind, and your cravings on a whole new level…and it will be 100% free when it launches.
