YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIf you struggle with emotional eating, stress eating, or binge eating, this episode will change how you see yourself.
Mel has received thousands of messages asking for an episode on overeating and body image. So she brought in one of the country's top experts to answer your questions.
Dr. Rachel Goldman is a nationally recognized clinical psychologist, NYU professor, and eating behavior specialist who has worked with thousands of people battling food noise, emotional eating, and obesity.
She has a refreshing, shame-free perspective on cravings, weight, and why willpower has nothing to do with it.
In this episode, you'll learn how to:
-Stop the cycle of binge eating and restriction for good
-Interrupt stress eating before it starts
-Understand the biology behind food noise and cravings
-Rebuild a healthy relationship with food without shame
-Create sustainable habits that actually stick
Whether you feel confused, exhausted, or stuck when it comes to food and your body, this conversation brings clarity and real tools, grounded in science, not diet culture.
Dr. Goldman will change the way you think about eating disorder recovery, your body, and your cravings.
