104. You Don’t Need Another Diet —Build the Body, Identity, and Life You Actually Want with Stephanie Crassweller
Welcome to Episode 104 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!
In this soul-nourishing episode of the Emotional Eats Podcast, I welcome back one of my favorite guests—Stephanie Crassweller, the CEO and founder of VitalityOET and host of The Metabolism and Menopause Podcast.
If you’re in midlife and you’ve ever felt like you're doing “all the right things” but still feel stuck—emotionally, physically, or spiritually—this episode is for you. Stephanie and I shift the focus from food and fitness to something far deeper: identity, faith, and the power of knowing who you truly are.
We talk about how motherhood changed her relationship with work, how her faith helped reframe her self-worth and stress, and how midlife women can stop chasing surface-level solutions and instead align with their values and purpose.
I have interviewed Stephanie before about the midlife metabolism and it was an amazing conversation, but THIS!!! This was a whole new level.
You’ll walk away with insight into why so many of us sabotage our own progress, how identity impacts every health decision we make, and why your faith or personal growth practice can be the missing piece of your health transformation.
Highlights:
Stephanie’s personal faith journey and how it reshaped her approach to coaching and life
Why identity is often the root of emotional eating and self-sabotage
The impact of faith on stress, boundaries, and leadership as a mom and business owner
Tools and practices for women wanting to reconnect with themselves
How midlife women can redefine health beyond the scale
Stephanie also shared amazing information about Understand Your Metabolism in Menopause in Season 1 Episode 36. Click here to listen: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/36-understanding-and-boosting-metabolism-in-menopause/id1686639038?i=1000640900403
