21: 3 Food Mindsets Sabotaging Your Health Goals
Women can find themselves struggling when it comes to food and exercise. Not because they don’t know enough. Not because they’re lazy or weak. But because of the cultural mindsets that sneak in and run the show.
In this episode of Talking with Emma, I unpack three of the most common food mindsets that sabotage women’s health goals:
- All-or-nothing thinking — why perfectionism keeps you swinging between being “on track” or spiralling into “I blew it.”
- The “what’s wrong with me?” question — how this one sneaky question fuels confirmation bias and keeps you stuck in self-blame.
- Outcome obsession — why focusing on weight, performance, or results sets you up for discouragement, and why behaviours are the true markers of health.
