Description

In this episode, I dive into a topic that hits home for many: how birthdays and special occasions become triggers for overeating and weight setbacks. If you’ve ever turned a birthday into a birthday week—or even a month—you’re not alone. This cycle of restriction and indulgence is a big reason why lasting weight loss feels impossible.

Here’s what we unpack:

  • Why birthdays often lead to prolonged periods of overeating and why this isn’t just a lack of willpower
  • The complicated love/hate relationship people have with overeating and how it fuels the cycle
  • How long-term dieting and restriction cause mental fatigue that sets you up for binges
  • Why mindset shifts are more important than changing habits alone
  • Real talk about the challenges of breaking free from dieting mindsets without guilt or shame
  • Practical insights to help you understand your relationship with food and stop the cycle for good

If you’re ready to stop using birthdays and holidays as excuses and start creating a sustainable, enjoyable relationship with food and your body, this episode is for you.
