PODCAST EPISODE 479

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, “Am I really hungry?” And if you’re not, why are you eating?

In this live class, I walk you through the Summer Challenge I created not to help you drop a pant size, but to help you drop the pressure and finally reconnect with your own body.  

In this episode, I show you the tools and concepts I now teach my clients: the physical hunger scale, the emotional hunger scale, how to handle urges, and why saying “no” to yourself doesn’t have to feel like punishment. I’ll walk you through how urges are created by thoughts, how to use the urge jar and food journal to understand yourself better, and why menopause, as difficult as it can be, might actually be the best time to create lasting change.

If you’ve spent years trying to fix your eating with diets, programs, or willpower  and you’re still stuck, this episode is for you. Enjoy the show!

PODCAST EPISODE BONUS

How many summers have you spent trying to get your body ready instead of getting your mind ready?

I’m announcing my free ThINNER Peace Challenge master class happening next Monday. I want to help you understand why getting your mind in shape matters more than focusing on your body alone. 

In this challenge, I’ll teach you how to handle urges when you see something you want but choose not to eat. We’ll work on eating when hungry and stopping when full, and I’ll help you understand what those hunger scale numbers really mean for you. I’m going to spend 60 minutes with you helping you master these concepts and give you a summer-long challenge to practice.

PODCAST EPISODE 478

Have you ever wondered if it’s really possible to lose weight and find peace with food just by listening to a podcast? In this episode, I share one listener’s story that answers that question in a powerful way.

This listener, who’s been with the podcast for over four years, has lost over 100 pounds. She’s never worked with me directly or paid for any coaching. Everything she’s learned has come from tuning in weekly, showing up for free masterclasses, and applying the tools I teach. In this episode, I read part of an email she sent me where she talks about how my words have stayed with her so much that she wrote them on sticky notes and posted them in her sewing room. These “Dr. Debisms,” as she calls them, helped her understand emotional hunger, practice mindfulness, and keep the weight off. I explain what each phrase means, how I use it in my work, and how you can apply it too. You’ll hear the mindset shift that changed her life and how simple reminders can help you return to peace with food, again and again.

Tune in now and hear how powerful your mind can be even when all you have is a podcast and a few sticky notes. Enjoy the Show!

PODCAST EPISODE 477

Are you tired of starting a new diet every summer only to feel like you’re back at square one by fall?

In this episode, I’m sharing how I’ve learned to quiet my mind, tune into my body, and create peace around food, and how you can start doing the same with my Thinner Peace Summer Challenge. I will also show you how to make it easy to sync and be connected with your body. 

I will walk you through how to use my hunger scale, how to think about food differently (yes, even potato chips), and how to gently rewire your brain with curiosity and not criticism. 

This isn’t about forcing weight loss. It’s about reconnecting with yourself in a way that leads to sustainable change and weight loss can follow, naturally.

If you’re ready to stop dieting and start living, this is your first step. Enjoy the show!

PODCAST EPISODE 476

Ever wonder what it really looks like to feel free around food? Like…truly free? 

Today, I’m sharing a beautiful conversation with Brenda, one of my recent group clients. She came to me after years of losing and gaining weight, feeling sick, tired, and completely worn out. She had listened to this podcast for a long time and had heard stories from other women—just like her—who finally found lasting peace. And then one day, she realized… if they could do it, so could she. In this episode, Brenda talks about what pushed her to join my group, how she dealt with emotional and physical hunger, and what it took to start trusting herself with food again—yes, even Joy Eats. You’ll hear her talk about early struggles, the turning points, and why she now keeps treats on the counter without fear. She didn’t just follow the process—she committed to it, and she tells you exactly how she did that.

If you’ve ever wondered whether real change is possible for you, I hope Brenda’s story gives you hope—and maybe a little push. Come listen to how she found peace, and how you can too. Enjoy the show!
