from Changing Lanes · host Harvey Holt
What am I really hungry for?In this episode, Sam Gibson returns to dive into the uncomfortable but deeply human topic of emotional eating and the hidden voids we all try to fill. Sam has recently released his new book unpacking the emotional, psychological, and deep-rooted causes of our eating habits, and the most interesting part... and it’s not about food at all...We explore the conversations we are not having: how trauma, disconnection, and unmet needs shape our relationship with food, and why no diet or “quick fix” can heal what’s actually emotional disconnection.Sam also introduces his ‘Seven Voids’ framework, a powerful lens for understanding where we might feel disconnected, from purpose, from joy, from love. As well as how those empty spaces quietly influence the way we eat, work, and live.This isn’t a conversation about restriction or control. It’s about awareness, compassion, and learning to find fulfilment instead of constantly chasing the next fix.If you’ve ever felt stuck in patterns of eating, guilt, or self-criticism, I honestly believe this conversation might be the one you didn’t know you needed.See more of Sam: https://www.instagram.com/samgibsonlimitless/Buy Sam's book: 'Why you overeat, and how to stop for good'Support the show and what's next: https://www.instagram.com/changing.lanes__/
