Happy eating!!

Have you ever noticed how babies fail over and over in their efforts to walk, but never quit? Even if they have a few tantrums along the way? Imagine if babies could feel shame or create stories around how hard it is to learn how to walk. How many of them would never learn to walk in the first place?

The lessons that truly change us often cost something: time, money, ego, comfort, or even an old identity. To change your relationship to your body and how you treat it, you will likely need to fail multiple times at many things. And failure has a cost, usually an emotional one.

If you can't manage your emotions around failure, you miss all of the lessons. And you'll stay stuck. Learning how to fail at eating and exercise

For anyone who has felt like a failure with food, body goals, consistency, or fat loss, this episode reframes failure as an essential part of learning rather than proof that something is wrong with you. You’ll learn why perfectionism, shame, and fear of failure keep so many high-achieving people stuck, and how practicing self-compassion can help you turn small failures into meaningful data instead of reasons to quit.

Have you ever gotten to the end of a horrible week or a bad day at work and said, "I deserve to DoorDash?" Or if you're out to eat with your friends, do you get dessert and tell yourself that you've earned it?

This is an incredibly common dynamic that is hurting your relationship with food.

On the surface, it seems like telling yourself you deserve to eat delicious things would be empowering! But what we'll explore in this episode is how telling yourself you deserve to eat delicious things is actually a type of emotional bypassing.

You’ll learn why food is not a reward, why exercise is not punishment, and why your body does not operate according to morality. Instead of framing eating around being “good” or “bad,” this episode offers a more compassionate and honest approach: you have unconditional permission to eat, and you also have a responsibility to understand the trade-offs of your choices. This is a powerful listen for anyone healing their relationship with food, trying to stop emotional eating, or working to break free from food guilt and all-or-nothing thinking.

If you’re tired of feeling stuck between craving pleasure and fearing the consequences of eating, this episode will help you rethink food morality, understand the emotional function of your eating habits, and build a more peaceful, grounded relationship with your body.

Why does body image get worse on vacation? In this episode, Aimee explores the psychology of body image on vacation and explains why so many people struggle with feeling bigger, more self-conscious, or uncomfortable in their bodies while traveling. She breaks down the science of body perception, including why your brain’s view of your appearance can shift so quickly and how factors like bloating, water retention, alcohol, disrupted routines, mirrors, social comparison, and vacation photos can intensify body image anxiety. If you’ve ever felt insecure in a bathing suit, hated the way you looked in pictures, or felt frustrated by vacation weight gain fears, this episode offers compassionate insight and practical perspective to help you feel less alone and more at ease in your body while traveling.

Happy eating.

The weather is getting hotter, and your next vacation is on the horizon. Maybe you're planning something involving bikinis or swim trunks. And while that sounds like a lot of fun, you're also feeling a bit nervous about how you look in a bathing suit. Or, maybe you feel a general sense of body anxiety around wearing shorts and tank tops.

It's the time of year that predatory fitness and wellness coaches are ready to swoop in to sell you the ultimate solution to your body dissatisfaction: the Six Week Shred.

If you've ever been tempted to lock in for several weeks because a program promised insane results, or maybe you do a crash diet every year before vacation, this podcast will cover what's really going on.

Before you sign up for any program that promises "30 POUNDS In 30 DAYS," be sure you can confidently answer the two main questions I pose in this episode. Chances are doing what you've always done and expecting this to be the year you're finally going to love your body is a teeny weeny bit of a fantasy.

Hey friends! We're back for a second week talking about cravings and how to manage them.

And if you know anything about behavior change, you already know you're not going to hear anything about willpower or discipline here.

But managing cravings and emotional eating does require the willingness to be uncomfortable and tapping into your courage to change.

In this episode, I talk about why cravings can feel so intense and what to do when food urges seem out of control. I explain how cravings are created in the brain, why willpower alone usually is not enough, and how self-compassion can help you change your eating patterns without shame. I also share the practice of urge surfing, a mindfulness-based tool that helps you pause, observe cravings, and let them pass without automatically acting on them. We explore the role of dopamine, emotional eating, food cues, and neuroplasticity, and I explain why you are not broken if food feels harder for you than it seems for other people.

This episode is for anyone struggling with cravings, secret eating, or feeling powerless around food and wanting a more compassionate, sustainable approach to nutrition and behavior change.

Happy eating, everyone.

This week I'm kicking off a little series on the part of pleasure eating that tends to upset everyone. It's the compulsive, relentless drive to eat things that we know aren't the best for our bodies or don't align with our goals. Most of us have experienced cravings, and some of us suffer from unwanted cravings to the point that it negatively impacts our lives.

Once you understand the the part of your brain that makes you yearn for food isn't the same part that likes what you are eating, you can start to notice when intense desire for food comes and how often it predicts happiness on your end.

Brains are very plastic and can be changed. You are not destined to a life of being mentally trapped by the food around you.

This one rule about craving and yearning changed my life forever, not just around food, but also around shopping, achievements, and so much more.

If you want support navigating a brain that can't stop thinking about food, 1:1 coaching is the best way to work with me:
