101. How Letting Go of Control Can Stop Emotional Eating and Improve Your Relationships
Welcome to Episode 101 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!
Welcome to Season 3 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!
In this episode, I’m letting you in on one of the sneakiest contributors to emotional eating—control. If you’re anything like me, you might find yourself trying to control not just your food and body, but also the people and situations around you.
Sure, control feels like safety, but in reality, it often leads to disconnection, guilt, and a stronger urge to turn to the ice cream, chocolate and chips for comfort.
Here’s what we explore in this episode:
Why Control Feels Safe: Understanding how control acts as a coping mechanism, helping us feel stable when life feels chaotic.
The Link Between Control and Emotional Eating: How restricting food and trying to control our bodies often leads to bingeing and overeating.
How Control Impacts Relationships: The subtle ways control can create distance and conflict with loved ones.
The Cost of Chronic Control: Exploring the emotional, physical, and mental toll of constantly trying to micromanage everything.
Why Letting Go Feels So Hard: How fear, identity, and a need for perfection keep us stuck in control mode.
Practical Tips to Let Go and Find Peace: Building a grounding morning routine, practicing intentional pauses, and learning to trust ourselves and others.
Here’s what I hope you gain. Control may have helped you feel safe in the past, but true peace and joy come from trusting yourself, embracing imperfection, and allowing life to flow.

“You have a unique and special way.”
The most significant thing that changed in my work with you was that my all consuming, soul-killing obsession with food was relieved through gentle healing and integration. I knew in my heart that you really cared about me and had my best interests at heart which helped me to re-connect with my own ability to love and support myself. When that part felt back in balance I think the food piece also re-balanced itself. Another incredible gift you offer is a super well resourced tool box! There was also plenty of deep diving into core wounding and reviewing old stories, all of which you skillfully guided me though and helped me to integrate in order to heal.
Thank you so much for everything.

“It seems so simple now!”
Kim taught me to listen to my body. I now can slow down and find out what I really need…which is not always food. I also learned it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. I struggled with dieting and then overeating. I have found a happy place where I can just be. She also taught me so much about food, reading labels and how good real food can be. Thank you.

“I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me.”
My reason for hiring Kim is different as I already knew how to eat healthy and was already in great shape. I wanted to learn more about digestion and overall gut health which is super important for all aspects of life. She is amazing! Very easy to talk too and she made me feel very comfortable and I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me. She is very nice and definitely very knowledgeable! She was able to help me in every way I needed and then some! Anyone who needs any form of help that she offers because she is top notch and well worth the money and time!Could not be happier with the decision I made to hire her as my coach!

“Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives.”
I feel an enthusiasm for embracing routines and habits that encompass not only my body, but spirit and mind. Kim is a beautiful, genuine person who is intuitive and kind.
Her support and positive perspective always turn around my attitude and help me see the favorable aspect to decisions I’ve made in a non-judgemental way.
Access to this type of reassurance is perpetual and brings peace of mind. Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives. Kim has been instrumental in bringing me home to my truest self.
