You're Not Broken, You're Running a Pattern | Rebuilding Self-Trust with Katie Ruffino
Delay the Binge Podcast | The Moment Before the Reaction
Most people don’t struggle because they don’t know what to do.
They struggle in the moment…they don’t trust themselves enough to do it.
In this episode of the Delay the Binge™ Podcast, Pam Dwyer sits down with Katie Ruffino to explore what’s really happening beneath patterns like overeating, indecision, and self-sabotage.
This conversation goes beyond behavior.
It gets to the root:
👉 the unconscious patterns
👉 the beliefs running in the background
👉 and the moment you override yourself
Katie shares how self-trust isn’t something you either have or don’t…
It’s something you build, through awareness, through the body, and through small, real-time decisions.
What You’ll Learn
- why you’re not broken, you’re running a pattern
- what’s actually happening when you “know what to do” but don’t do it
- how food acts as a mirror and messenger
- the connection between self-worth and behavior patterns
- why willpower doesn’t work (and what does)
- how to shift from judgment → curiosity
- Katie’s 4-step Trust Your Gut framework
- how to build self-trust in everyday moments
Key Takeaway
There is nothing wrong with you.
You’re not failing…you’re just running a pattern.
And patterns can change.
