  • How to Overcome People-Pleasing Eating Habits: Balance Seeker Archetype Explained [Ep 71]
    Nov 24 2025

    Have a question or a topic for an episode? Send Lisa a text.

    In this episode of Midlife Mojo, Lisa explores the Balance Seeker, one of the five weight-loss archetypes from her signature Weight Loss Archetype Quiz. This archetype shows up in people who deeply value responsibility and caring while often leading them to finish everything on their plate, follow rigid mealtime rules, and eat to avoid waste or disappointment. While these intentions come from a good place, they can override hunger and fullness cues, resulting in frustration, guilt, and eating patterns that are out of alignment with health goals.

    Lisa shares common ways this archetype appears in daily life, explains why these patterns aren’t a lack of willpower, and walks through coaching strategies that help you reconnect with your body and set healthier boundaries. From portion awareness to reducing food-waste anxiety, she empowers listeners to honor both their values and their wellbeing. If you resonate with the Balance Seeker tendencies, you’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of yourself and actionable steps toward more confident, aligned choices around food.

    Key takeaways from this episode include:

    • How early messaging around eating and being polite can turn into people-pleasing habits that override your body’s signals.
    • Why these patterns are learned behaviors (not a lack of willpower), and how they can impact weight loss and body transformation.
    • Practical ways to reconnect with your hunger and fullness cues so you can eat with confidence and less guilt.
    • How reframing self-care as responsibility helps you set boundaries, reduce food-related anxiety, and make choices aligned with your goals.
