You know what to eat.

You’ve read the books, tried the plans, watched the reels.

But when stress hits… or boredom sets in… or you’re just tired of trying so hard— the chips, cookies, or wine suddenly seem like the solution. 🍷🍪😬

You’re not weak.

You’re just stuck in, what my guest, nutritionist Lisa Goldberg, calls the dieter’s mindset.

In the dieter’s mindset you:

• Obsess over “good” vs “bad” foods
• Eat to soothe your emotions (then beat yourself up about it)
• Rely on willpower instead of self-trust

In this week’s episode, Lisa and I are talking about why we emotionally eat, how the diet mindset fuels the cycle, and what it really takes to change your eating habits for good.

We talk about:

🧠 The old thoughts that drive emotional eating (and how to replace them)

😞 Common feelings of guilt and shame associated with this mindset

💡 Why eating habits change when you start thinking differently

🙏 Forgiveness, self-compassion, and learning to trust yourself around food again

Because here’s the truth: It’s not about controlling food. It’s about healing your relationship with it—and yourself.

You don’t need more discipline.

You need a mindset that’s aligned with who you want to become. ✨

I hope you find this episode valuable,

Debbie
