In this episode of Shoulders Down, Leah chats with psychotherapist, mindset coach, and author Kathy Most to explore whatâs really underneath emotional eating and binge eating. Kathy shares her own experience developing disordered eating in college and how that experience ultimately led her to a career helping others heal their relationships with food and their bodies.
Together, Leah and Kathy unpack how food can become a coping skill for uncomfortable emotions and unmet needs. The role of control in emotional eating, and how self-compassion and curiosity can break cycles of shame and self-judgment. They also explore the mind-body connection, how our thoughts shape our experiences with food and body image, and why learning to feel our feelings and reconnect with the body is essential for rebuilding self-trust and intuition.
