When Eating Feels Like a Chore

Sometimes, feeding ourselves feels like just another task, something we have to do, not something we want to. In this episode, we’re unpacking why eating can start to feel like a chore, from decision fatigue and mental health struggles to the way diet culture and capitalism disconnect us from our needs. We’ll explore how exhaustion, isolation, and shame show up around food, and how we can gently move toward curiosity, care, and reconnection. ✨ Tarot pull of the week: The Hermit Reversed ✨ Journal prompts: What makes eating feel hard or draining right now?
