About this listen
What if your inability to change isn't a failure of willpower, but your heart's way of protecting you from something you're not ready to face? Ali Shapiro, creator of Truce with Food, shares how her journey from overworking addiction to radical life redesign began with a simple question: "Why does this make sense?"
In this raw conversation, Ali reveals how addressing her relationship with food became the gateway to confronting deeper questions about worth, identity, and what success actually means—and why healing often requires becoming a beginner all over again. From her journey through cancer, infertility, and postpartum menopause to finally redefining wealth as "freedom over my time," Ali demonstrates how the courage to slow down and listen to your body's wisdom can unlock transformations you never imagined possible.
Essential listening for anyone measuring busyness instead of impact, struggling to make changes they know they need, or ready to understand why their body might be wiser than their ambition.
