Emotional eating has been a part of human life since the beginning of time—a way to cope, celebrate, and connect. But what happens when food becomes your only source of comfort, joy, or calm? In this episode, I’m joined by none other than Corinne Crabtree, renowned coach, speaker, and creator of the No BS Weight Loss Program. Through her proven strategies, Corinne has helped thousands of women shed not just physical weight, but the emotional weight holding them back. Join us as we explore how emotional eating is often tied to unmet needs, why focusing only on weight loss isn’t enough, and how simple shifts—like pausing before you eat—can create lasting change. Corinne also shares powerful strategies to break free from the cycle of emotional eating and find healthier ways to cope. If food has become your main source of comfort, this episode is a must-listen to help you live a more balanced, joyful life.ReferencesNo BS Weight Loss ProgramLosing 100 Pounds with CorinneLife Is In the Transitions by Bruce FeilerAudio Stamps01:35 - Meet Corinne Crabtree, who went from lifelong weight struggles to helping women drop emotional weight for good.07:52 - She breaks down emotional eating and how to retrain your brain for a healthier relationship with food.15:12 - Discover why small shifts—like pausing before you eat—can create big change.21:58 - Fear of regain often stems from emotional habits and not trusting your weight loss process.28:05 - When weight loss is your identity, maintenance feels empty—real change starts in your mind.35:20 - Letting go of self-judgment is one of the most powerful things you can do.47:00 - Corinne shares how to access her free course, podcast, and membership for mindset-driven support.Quotes“I wasn't taking good care of myself, but at the root of it, I didn't know how to take care of myself.” - Corinne Crabtree“I like to tell people, ‘I'm going to help you lose weight, but we're not just going to lose your physical weight because if you don't lose your emotional weight, you'll never keep it off.’” - Corinne Crabtree“I never want someone to think that if you're eating outside of physical hunger, somehow that's bad. Not necessarily. We always have to look at things through the lens of why am I eating? And is this reason a rock solid reason that I'm proud of?” - Corinne Crabtree“Our brains think everything is hard. But that's not a fact. We don't know until we do something.” - Corinne CrabtreeAll of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.
