  The Truth About Emotional Eating: Why You Eat When You Don't Want to

  Sep 29, 202620 min

  What if the reason you keep eating when you don't want to has nothing to do with willpower? What if you're not broken, undisciplined, or lacking the ability to make good choices? In this episode of The Love Your Life Show, I'm sharing the truth about emotional eating and helping you see it in a completely different way. And once you understand what I teach, you have leverage. I'll explain why food is such an effective coping strategy, why beating yourself up about your eating can actually keep you stuck, and the simple shift that can help you move from automatic eating to intentional choice. In this episode, I'm talking about: Why emotional eating isn't a moral failing or a lack of willpower How food helps us distract from feelings we don't know how to process Why shame and self-judgment can become another distraction from the life you actually want to live The difference between eating intentionally and eating automatically Why you don't need another eating plan, you need more coping strategies How learning to pause can help you feel more confident and in control You are not the problem. You don't need more shame or more discipline. You need to understand what's really happening and learn more ways to support yourself. Because when you change the things I speak of in this episode, you can change so much more than your eating.

  Stop Feeling Guilty for Your Boundaries

  Sep 15, 202623 min

  Want to feel less guilty? Especially around your kids, friends, siblings, or spouse? If you feel guilty saying no, worry about disappointing people, or find yourself overexplaining your decisions, this episode is for you.

  Why You Keep Procrastinating (and What to Do Instead)

  Sep 8, 202646 min

  Have you ever told yourself, "I'll do it tomorrow," only to find yourself saying the same thing the next day? And the next?And the next? All the while, feeling worse and worse about yourself? (been there, done that ) This episode is going to help so much. Click play to learn how you're NOT lazy, unmotivated, or any other garbage your inner mean girl is telling you. I have the amazing Monica Packer on the Love Your Life Show this week. She's the host of the About Progress podcast and author of the new book STICKY HABITS. She and I talk about the surprising reason so many of us procrastinate and why it often has nothing to do with discipline. We dive into the hidden ways perfectionism showed up in our lives, why success doesn't always feel the way we imagined it would, and how to stop waiting until everything feels "just right" before taking action. We talk about a lot, including: - Why procrastination is often a symptom, not the real problem. - The hidden ways perfectionism may be showing up in your life (even when you swear you're not a perfectionist). - The lie of what social media tells us success is. - How to stop tying your worth to how well you mother, your bank account, or any other achievement. - A healthier way to build habits that support, rather than shame, you. (This was especially awesome!) - And how "good enough" action can lead to a life you love! Whether you've been putting off a goal, waiting for the perfect time, or simply feeling stuck, this conversation will leave you feeling supported, feeling less broken, more confident, and with some ideas on how to move forward. I'm so glad you're here.

  Emotional Regulation: Regulate Yourself Before You Regulate Them

  Sep 1, 202619 min

  What if the first person you need to regulate isn't your child, your partner, or anyone else around you? What if it's you? In this episode of The Love Your Life Show, we're talking about a skill that can completely change the way you handle conflict, big feelings, and other people's problems: regulating yourself before you try to regulate someone else. If you're anything like me, when someone around me is upset, frustrated, angry, or uncomfortable, I feel the urge to jump in. To give advice! To fix it! To explain why they should think about it differently! All in an effort to try to make "the problem" go away. But here's what I've learned as an emotional intelligence coach and mom. What if we're the problem?! Because here's the thing: us getting involved is not helpful for them. It's short-term helpful for us (as we feel a bit less uncomfortable), but it's a short-term fix for a long-term problem. What if, instead of trying to get them to change so we feel more emotionally regulated, we learn to regulate ourselves? What if we "let them" have the experience they're having, "letting them" learn how to manage their problems and their emotions while we let us learn how to manage ourselves?!? Crazy idea, I know, but it is the path to emotional maturity, you feeling more calm in your days, and you raising the next generation of humans who can self-regulate! Listen in as I share what this can look like with kids, partners, family members, and other adults. People are going to be upset. They're going to be frustrated. They're going to disagree. And that's okay. They have lives to live and part of a big life is having uncomfortable emotions and learning how to manage them. Listen in to learn how you don't have to prevent every uncomfortable feeling. You don't have to solve every problem. And you don't have to manage everyone else's emotions. In fact, the most helpful thing you can do, no matter the age of the human, is to regulate yourself first. Calm is contagious. ✨ ✨ And if you want to get better at emotional regulation, this is exactly the kind of skill we're practicing together inside the Love Your Life School.
