From Losing and Gaining 700 Pounds to Freedom from Emotional Eating with Michelle Petties
Manage episode 486693968 series 3386174
In this episode, I'm joined by Michelle Petties, a TEDx speaker and food story coach who has transformed her own life by understanding the deep emotional roots of eating.
Michelle shares her remarkable journey of losing and gaining nearly 700 pounds before discovering how food is intimately connected to our emotions, memories, and cultural inheritance.
Through her personal story of overcoming food addiction and rebuilding her life after losing everything in the 2008 economic crisis, Michelle reveals how our relationship with food goes far beyond nutrition.
She explores how emotional eating is often a complex response to stress, loneliness, and unprocessed feelings, and offers a powerful framework for understanding and healing our relationship with food and ourselves.
This conversation is not just about weight loss, but about reclaiming personal agency, understanding our emotional landscapes, and learning to nourish ourselves in truly meaningful ways.
