Too Much on Her Plate with Dr. Melissa McCreery: Emotional Eating Help for Smart, High-Achieving Women

195: The Real Reason You Lose Control Around Food (It’s Not Discipline)

Dr. Melissa McCreery, Psychologist & Emotional Eating Coach for Smart, Busy Women Episode 195

Why do you lose control around food even when you know better?
It’s not about willpower. And it’s not about discipline.

In this episode, I’m walking you through:

  • The shortcut your brain has learned (and how to unlearn it)
  • Why “just try harder” always fails
  • What the urge to eat is really about
  • A question that can change everything

This is the first in a series spotlighting Peace with Food: The Emotional Eating Toolbox - my new 30-day program to help you build real, lasting peace with food.

Listen in, and start replacing guilt with insight - one curious pause at a time.
