Description

Black-and-white thinking might be the single most powerful pattern keeping you stuck in cycles of binging and restriction. 

If you've ever thought "I already messed up, so I might as well keep going," this episode is for you. We explore how all-or-nothing thinking creates the binge-restrict cycle, why it's so common among high-achievers, and most importantly, how to start shifting into the gray area where actual peace with food lives.

What You'll Discover:

• Why "I've already blown it" thinking leads directly to binging

• How perfectionism and diet culture fuel black-and-white thinking

• The power of "good enough" as an alternative to perfect or failure

• Practical ways to introduce gray area thinking, especially during the holidays

If you're someone who struggles with an "on the wagon" or "off the wagon" mentality with food, this episode will help you understand why that framework doesn't work - and what to do instead.

Perfect timing for the holiday season when black-and-white thinking tends to intensify!
