In today’s episode, I share some personal reflections on the often-stigmatized topic of overeating, particularly in the aftermath of holiday indulgence. I talk about my own Easter “nutritional chaos,” and realistic expectations with your relationship with food. With a mix of humor and sincerity, the discussion turns to the difference between overeating and binge eating, emphasizing that the former is a normal part of life and not synonymous with a disorder. The episode serves as a reminder that perfection in dietary habits is neither attainable nor desirable. So lighten up, mkay?

“Your messed up relationship with food and your body affects the people around you in more ways than you like to admit.”
