You don’t need more willpower to stop bingeing. You don’t even need to want it “badly” enough. You need to uncover what the binges are DOING for you.

In this episode, I sit down with a member of my community, Melissa, for a deep coaching over coffee session about binge eating, sugar cravings, and the pattern that keeps running no matter how much self-awareness she has. She knows what's happening. And it keeps happening anyway.

We get into:

• Why you're not addicted to the food — you're addicted to the relief it gives you
• Why you can eat balanced all morning and completely lose it by 4pm (this one will click something into place for you)
• Why trying to make a different choice in the moment almost never works
• The rehearsal technique that rewires your autopilot BEFORE you're in the trigger
• What it means to teach your body that discomfort is survivable

This conversation is for the woman who's tired of knowing better and still not doing better.

How many times have you started a habit, felt good about it, and then watched it fall apart the second life got in the way? And then blamed yourself for it?

My guest today has spent 20 years studying exactly WHY that happens, and her answer is going to reframe the whole thing for you.

Monica Packer is a certified habits and identity coach, host of the top-rated podcast About Progress, and author of the upcoming book Sticky Habits: A Woman's Guide to Reclaim Happiness, Ditch Perfectionism, and Create Habits That Last. She's also a 20-year eating disorder recovery warrior, which made this conversation feel SO real and grounded.

The big idea: the habit advice we've all been handed was built by and for people whose lives look nothing like ours. And because of invisible labor, women have less time, less energy, more interruptions, and less predictability than the system assumes. It was never going to work.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• What the "underachieving perfectionist" actually looks like (and if you're one without knowing it)
• Why standard consistency advice fails women, and how to redefine it
• The ideal vs. baseline habit framework that makes you stop breaking habits for good
• How every tiny baseline action rewires your identity
• The one belief Monica wants every woman to walk away holding

You know you’re full. Your body it’s had enough. And yet something takes over and you finish the plate anyway.

That's not a willpower problem. It's a pattern that got wired into your nervous system long before you were old enough to question it, so willpower was never going to be enough to touch it.

In this episode, I'm walking you through 3 specific steps to actually rewire the "clean your plate" mentality for good — not just override it occasionally, but unlearn it at the level where it actually lives.

We cover:

• Where this pattern comes from
• The specific mindsets driving the behavior now, including "getting my money's worth" and the scarcity belief that shows up even when food is plentiful
• Why trying to change this in the moment almost never works, and what to do instead
• How to rehearse your way out of old patterns before you're in them

Including the mindset shift that makes a big difference: your body is not a garbage can.

This pattern can be unlearned. Even if it's been with you for decades.
