Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “I’m not even hungry… I’m just eating to eat”?

You’re not alone, and more importantly, you’re not broken.

In this episode, we’re unpacking what’s really going on when you feel like you’re eating mindlessly, constantly snacking, or reaching for food without a clear craving. Spoiler: this behavior has far less to do with willpower and far more to do with biology, nervous system regulation, and unmet needs.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated, guilty, or confused by your eating habits, this episode will help you finally understand why this happens and how to respond in a way that actually leads to change.
