After watching the Olympics for two weeks I wanted to share the stories that have resonated with me the most. Stories about what it takes to keep going, to trust your body, to come back after something hard.

This podcast isn't just about inspiration, it's about what these athletes can teach you on your journey to food freedom.

What You'll Discover:

- Why inspiration is one of the most underrated tools on your path to food freedom

- The mindset required to overcome hard things

- What Mikaela Shiffrin's approach to fear and focus can teach you about your relationship with food

- How elite athletes think about food and why it's the opposite of what diet culture taught you

Plus 5 key themes that apply both to Olympic athletes and your journey to become a calm, connected and confident with food.

If you've ever wondered why finding peace with food feels so challenging even when you're putting in the work, this episode offers a new way to see your journey. You might be further along than you think.

Shame might be the most powerful force keeping you stuck in the binge cycle—and you might not even realize it's there.

Today I'm joined by Kyira Wackett, a licensed therapist specializing in shame, burnout, and anxiety, for a conversation that gets to the heart of why shame and binge eating are so deeply connected. Shame is the painful belief that we are fundamentally unworthy of love, belonging, and connection—a feeling that shows up intensely after binges or any behavior we try to hide.

Kyira shares her own story of struggling with food and body image, and how her "protective shame parts" developed in childhood to keep her safe. She walks you through practical exercises to identify your shame stories and understand what's really driving the behaviors you want to change.

What You'll Discover:

• The difference between shame and guilt—and why shame leads to hiding and performing
• How to identify if shame is running the show in your relationship with food
• Why trying to control the externals keeps you stuck (and what to focus on instead)
• The problem with most New Year's goals—and how to set intentions that actually align with your values

If you've ever felt like you're stuck in a cycle of trying to be "good" with food, only to end up binging and drowning in self-criticism, this conversation will help you understand what's happening underneath—and give you a path forward.
