If you’ve ever felt like healing your relationship with food requires perfection, rules, or cutting out everything fun, this episode is about to blow your mind in the best (and slightly unhinged) way.

Today I’m sharing 7 unconventional, unexpected, and honestly kind of chaotic-sounding things I did that helped me stop binge eating, stop obsessing over food, and finally feel normal around foods that used to have power over me.

From eating chocolate every day…
to adding things into my meals instead of taking things away…
to keeping trigger foods in the house on purpose (yes, on purpose) 
– these are the strategies that healed my relationship with food faster than all the food rules and willpower hacks combined.

Inside this fun bonus episode, you’ll hear:
 ✨ Why “allowing” felt scarier than restricting (but changed everything)
 ✨ The counterintuitive habits that stopped cravings in their tracks
 ✨ How adding more fiber, fat, and protein helped me stop overeating
 ✨ The bizarre mindset shifts that made food feel neutral again

If you’re tired of swinging between “on track” and “off the rails,” if food still feels like a battle, or if you’re just curious about what healing looks like in the real world, this episode will make you laugh, nod your head, and maybe rethink everything you believed about food.
