I used to cope with everything by eating.Stress? Food.Fear? Food.Loneliness, shame, boredom? Always food.
But that’s not who I am anymore. In this episode of Drop It, I walk you through exactly how I stopped emotionally eating—not just managing the tendency, but actually letting it go.
I share:✅ The key shift that helped me stop numbing myself with food✅ Why “just having willpower” isn’t the solution for emotional eating✅ The exact steps I take to feel my feelings instead of feeding them✅ Two near-death experiences that triggered deep emotional waves—and how I handled them without food✅ How to stop seeing food as comfort and start trusting yourself to sit in discomfort
You don’t need to “cope better.”You need to stop running from the emotion underneath the binge.And that starts with giving yourself permission to feel.

If you’re overweight and trying to lose the weight the right way—not with restriction, shame, or shortcuts—but with honesty and healing… this episode is for you.
In this episode of Drop It, I make the case that sustainable weight loss isn’t just physical—it’s one of the most spiritual things you can do. More powerful than meditating. More grounding than “manifesting.” Because you can’t fully step into your highest self when you're drowning in the constant noise of:    
“I wish I wasn’t fat.”
“I’m scared for my health.”
“How many calories are in this?”
Here’s what we explore:
✅ Why sustainable weight loss is a spiritual awakening—not just a body transformation✅ How food noise, body shame, and fear block you from connecting to your soul✅ The trauma, pain, and emotional baggage you’re forced to face on the way down✅ What happens when you stop starting over every Monday—and start healing for real✅ Why ignoring your soul’s whispers will make you miserable, and how to finally listen
Underneath the weight isn’t just a smaller body—it’s you. The real you. The one who’s been buried under years of guilt, pain, and false starts. And the real you is ready to come out.
