In this episode, I sit down with Heide Corse—registered dietitian and food addict in recovery—to explore what it truly means to find peace and freedom from food obsession after decades of struggle.
Here’s what we cover in the episode:
• Heide’s realization that she was living with true food addiction—and why moderation never worked for her
• The turning point that led to her final “day one” after a lifetime of failed diets and self-blame
• How she embraced abstinence from sugar, flour, grains, and alcohol—and stayed food sober for four years without a single slip
• Why abstinence, not moderation, is often the only path to lasting recovery for food addicts
• How the carnivore diet became her foundation for simplicity, stability, and peace of mind
• Practical strategies for maintaining recovery while traveling, socializing, or dining out
• The mindset shift behind “not engaging” with cravings or intrusive food thoughts
• What peace and freedom around food actually feel like—and how they’ve transformed her life
Heide’s story is both powerful and practical—a testament to how deep self-awareness, structure, and courage can lead to true recovery.
This conversation is essential listening for anyone who’s tried every diet, struggled with binge eating, or wants to understand how to finally feel at peace with food.
