January 13

31 mins

Episode Description

Do you ever reach for food when your body isn’t actually hungry? Have you noticed how certain foods show up most when you’re tired, stressed, or emotionally spent?

In this episode, I sit down with emotional eating expert Tricia Nelson to explore comfort eating through a compassionate, spiritual lens. We talk about why emotional eating isn’t about willpower or discipline, but about trying to feel better and why food often becomes the safest way to cope with uncomfortable emotions.

We also explore how using food to numb doesn’t just affect the body. It can muffle intuition, dull our spiritual sensitivity, and quietly impact how we show up in our work, relationships, and visibility.

This conversation is for soul-guided entrepreneurs who sense that their relationship with food is connected to something deeper and are ready to approach it with awareness instead of shame.

You’ll discover:

Why emotional eating is about soothing, not self-control
How comfort food can block intuition and spiritual connection
What it means to heal overeating from the inside out
