If you are a smart, capable woman exhausted by years of dieting and struggling to find peace with food, I want you to know something important.
The holiday season—Christmas, Hanukkah, and everything in between—is not a time to disconnect from yourself by eating when you’re not hungry, joy-eating all day long, or reacting to relatives who push your buttons.
It is the Advanced Masterclass of the year.
In fact, it is THE Masterclass because everything we talk about throughout the year surfaces all at once in this short period of time.
Here’s What I See in So Many Women:
You know, intellectually, that you eat for emotional reasons. You are emotionally aware and you want peace, not restriction.
But when the holidays arrive, the rules go out the window:
- You are surrounded by Joy Food, and you lose connection to your actual hunger cues.
- You struggle to know if you are truly hungry or not, and you eat even when you are full.
- All your deepest food and mind issues surface—the stress, the family dynamics, the urge, the panic.
You are not doing this wrong.
Your brain is simply being triggered, and you feel hooked (what we call shempa) and react without awareness. This is completely normal.
This Is Not Failure. This Is Your Ultimate Opportunity.
The truth is simple: You can change the way you eat until doomsday, but if you don’t know how to feel a feeling without feeding it, you will only perpetuate that behavior.
The goal of this Masterclass is to see what gets you going and use it as a learning opportunity.
We will work together to make the Advanced Masterclass (the holidays) a great learning place. By being around the things, people, places, and food that trigger you, we will train your brain to react and think something different that actually creates more peace and less negativity.
You will learn how to:
- Become Your Own Teacher: Instead of fighting or resisting your urges, you will learn the simple skill of allowing the discomfort to be there. This is the only way to extinguish the urge and permanently transform your thought cycle.
- Identify Emotional Hunger: We’ll use the Emotional Hunger Scale to discover if your desire to eat is actually a signal from your mind seeking comfort, or if it is true physical hunger whispering.
- Practice Awareness: We’ll focus on raising your MQ (Mindfulness Quotient). The goal is awareness before reaction. You'll learn that it’s not the meal; it’s the meaning you assign to the meal.
This time of year is the perfect, concentrated experience to help you for the following year—maybe even for the rest of your life.

Hi! I'm Dr Deb
For years, I believed if I could just get thin enough, I’d finally love myself. That belief came from years of exposure to our toxic culture around food and bodies that many of us experienced. I spent so much of my life focused on diets, constantly thinking about food and my body. I’ve lost and regained weight more times than I care to admit.
But what I discovered is that the real work isn’t just about what you’re eating—it’s about why. It’s about addressing the shame, boredom, and emotional triggers that lead to unhealthy habits. It’s about reclaiming the power we give food.
I’m a Master Weight Loss and Life Coach. My approach blends brain science, nutrition, and coaching to help women in menopause end their weight struggles for good. I’ll show you how to reconnect with your body and find lasting peace around food, all while helping you manifest your truest desires.
I’ve done this work in my own life, for thousands of women who have learned my ThINNER Peace Process, and I’m excited to help you transform yours.
