Hello beautiful!

Have you ever wondered…

“Why am I craving sugar every night?”
“Why can’t I stop snacking, even when I’m full?”
“Why isn’t this diet working for me anymore?”

If you’re a woman in midlife struggling with cravings, emotional eating, or weight gain—and tired of feeling guilty around food—you’re not alone. And you’re not broken.

In this episode, we’re breaking free from the hidden food rules that have shaped us for decades.
You’ll learn how to listen to cravings, hunger, and fullness without guilt, fear, or shame—so you can rebuild trust with your body and enjoy food again.

We’ll cover:

• Why cravings aren’t a sign of failure—they’re wisdom from your body
• The 5 types of hunger (and why it’s not always about food)
• Why diet culture taught us to distrust hunger, fullness, and desire
• A simple practice to respond to cravings and fullness without guilt
• How to pursue health, weight loss, and nutrition without falling back into control and fear

Whether you’re looking to lose weight, stop emotional eating, or simply feel at peace with food again—this episode will give you practical tools and a fresh perspective.

Hit play, and let’s dive in. 

XO,

Michelle
