I’m sharing more about how I gained freedom in my struggles with food, including how my mindset changed, in this episode. There was a specific focus I had that helped me start to uncover the freedom that was already there, and with this way of thinking, I finally began to see it for the first time.

Often, I talk about our experiences in life and who we are as human beings. That’s where we are starting today: understanding who and what we are, and how our misunderstandings or inclinations to take things personally can corrupt our relationship with food. Your struggles with food may be the result of being caught up in a story that’s not yours to own.

Topics covered in this episode:

  • What we are as humans, and how we are also formless beings.
  • Why we can sometimes feel yucky “just because”.
  • What the messy middle looked like for me.
  • How stories play into our habitual minds.
  • What I realize now that I didn’t in my messy middle.
  • How I once saw going to sugar as failure, and how I see it now.
  • Why dropping judgement and staying present can be so powerful.
  • Why self-compassion is crucial for discovering food freedom.
  • The importance of remembering the journey doesn’t happen overnight.
  • Questions you can ask to support yourself without judgement and guilt.
  • Why you should give yourself permission to be curious.
  • How acknowledging it’s not about you is important to your mindset.
  • How the journey of reaching inwards looks different for everyone.
  • Why you have to do some unwrapping to reach the keys of freedom.
