EPISODE 431. If you feel out of control around food - fine all week, then spiraling at night - this episode explains why it’s not a discipline problem but a learned disconnect from your body after years of rules, restriction, and outsourcing choices to plans and tracking. Katie Hake, non-diet dietitian and trainer, describes what “normal eating” and a peaceful relationship with food actually looks like, shares intuitive eating research benefits, and walks through a practical, non-judgmental process to rebuild body trust without meal plans, macro tracking, or avoiding foods, including a client story about neutralizing “trigger” cereal through consistent fueling and permission.

What we cover:

Why diet culture and food rules erode hunger/fullness trust over time
What trusting yourself with food looks like in real life (and what it isn’t)
Three steps to rebuild trust
