It’s about awareness. Because the truth is — we don’t reach for food or quick fixes because we’re weak.  We reach for them because a part of us is trying to feel safe, and most of us were never taught how to meet that need without self-abandoning in the process.In this episode, we explore:✨Why weight loss jabs might treat a symptom - but never rewire emotional eatingThe key question to ask if you keep repeating the same food and self-care patternsHow to untangle your identity from your appearance, without losing your ambitionThe deeper emotional and energetic drivers behind the urge to control your bodyWhat actually helps change stick — and why your ‘why’ matters more than any toolWhether you’ve tried the jab, judged the jab, or feel stuck between extremes — this episode brings nuance, clarity, and compassion to a topic most people oversimplify.To download Rebecca's FREE guide 'It's not your fault' go to https://linktr.ee/iamrebeccadonoghueOr https://www.instagram.com/iamrebeccadonoghue/ Download 15 Breaths to Calm Anxiety - a FREE 5 minute audio to calm you down in real time.Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.Download my energising 5 Minute Morning Practice to get your day started in the best way possible.To find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to:  https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at:  [email protected]://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/
