• The concept of “emotional dieting” and “emotional weight fixation,”
• How emotional dieting is a coping mechanism that distracts us from getting at the real issue and keeps us turning to diets for an answer,
• That it’s normal for life to feel out of control sometimes and there’s not always a quick fix or way to control it,
• That we’ve been conditioned to think that our bodies are a problem, so it’s no surprise when that becomes our way of thinking about ourselves or processing emotions,
• Some common triggers for diet fixation,
• The importance of identifying where your sense of fulfilment is not being met in life,
• Why this makes accepting your body so hard,
• How freeing it is to get comfortable experiencing the messiness of being a human being,

• How to separate from these things in order to truly move forward,
• That you should lead with curiosity and know that your body is not the problem,
• Plus so much more!
