Begin Focusing On Your Life Instead of Obsessing Over Food with Jamie Mendell

Do you ever stay at home from parties because you don’t want to deal with the extra calories of having a beer?

In this inspiring new episode of Your Life Your Success, Jamie shares how she fell in love with her life and thereby falling in love with herself.

Jamie talks about her story with emotional eating and how her struggles with food started. She talks about losing herself and relying on food to fill her inner void.

We talk about the fear of “blowing up” and gaining 100 pounds when eating mindfully and intuitively. Jamie says that it doesn’t take that long to break down your trigger foods. Her message is that what her clients are doing here will help them forever, so it’s worth a couple of weeks of fear.

We talk about the changes that Jamie sees in her clients once they’ve taken that radical step of going against everything they’ve heard for most of their lives. We talk about how to determine hunger and satiation and how to take ownership of your food decisions again.

We go deeper into the concept of intuitive eating and what it actually means to be an intuitive eater.

She talks about us women not living in alignment with who we are and how we can live authentically, how to schedule joy and happiness into your calendar and why embracing different types of bodies in our current society is only the beginning of a revolution.
