Binge Eating Breakthrough

How Perfectionism Perpetuates Binge Eating

Jane Pilger Episode 29

The topic of perfection for this week’s episode was inspired by my recent guest podcast interview on Side Gig School, where I spoke about how perfectionism showed up for me when I was first certified as a coach and wanted to start my business. Last year, I did a masterclass on how perfectionism perpetuates binge eating, and this topic resonated so much with my attendees, who struggled with their relationship with food. 

In this episode, I talk about perfection and the four steps on how to overcome perfectionism that perpetuates binge eating.

Here are a few takeaways from this episode:

  • Perfectionists tend to achieve LESS and stress MORE than regular high achievers.
  • Use the power of your BRAIN to notice and shift your default pattern of thinking.
  • Perfectionism may be one key component keeping you stuck in the cycle of binging.
