If you find yourself turning to food between 4 and 6 p.m., this episode is for you.
In this episode, I open up about a deeply relatable pattern so many women face—emotional eating after work and before dinner. This is often the time of day when cravings hit the hardest and shame sets in quickly. We turn to food to cope with the stress of the day as we transition from kids, day, work to home life and evening.
I share my personal story and the real physiological, emotional, and psychological triggers that contribute to late afternoon and early evening binges. We’ll explore why this happens, why it’s not about willpower and discipline, and what your body and mind are really asking for in those moments.
You are not alone and you are not weak. Your body is smart and needs something. Learn what it needs to stop the late day and after dinner over snacking.
You’ll walk away with insights and tools to break this cycle—not through dieting or self-blame, but through self-awareness, nourishment, and compassion.
Key Takeaways
You are not alone in your struggles with food.
Afternoon cravings are often tied to blood sugar, stress, and depletion.
Emotional eating is a response to emotional and physical needs—not a sign of failure.
Understanding your emotional triggers can help shift behavior.
The shame loop reinforces emotional eating. Self-compassion is a key to change.
A supportive environment and small pre-planned choices can make a big impact.
Regulating your nervous system and creating new transition habits can stop the binge before it starts.
You deserve to care for yourself without guilt.

“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.
