    The Difference Between Reading About Change and Doing It

    In this episode, I'm talking about something I think a lot of us are quietly doing without realizing it. Maybe you're still in it, reading and listening to everything you can find about binge eating and emotional eating, trying to finally understand it well enough that something changes. Or maybe you've already gone through most of what's out there and you're left wondering why understanding it hasn't actually changed anything.  Either way, we're diving into the real difference between learning about change and actually doing it, and why staying informed, through books, podcasts, or anything else, can quietly become its own way of staying stuck. What you'll discover: Why understanding something doesn't automatically change itWhat I call shelf-help, and why it feels so safeWhat reading actually gives you, and what it doesn'tWhat doing the work actually requiresIf you've read every book, listened to every podcast, and you're still stuck in the same place with food, this episode is for you. The Book Experience begins August 18 and enrollment is open now. You can also find my book, The Binge Eating Breakthrough, and the companion workbook at janepilger.com/book.

    What You Actually Need to Find Peace With Food

    In this episode, I'm talking about what actually creates peace with food, because it's probably not what you've been told. Maybe you're still in it, trying every rule and every plan to stop binge eating or emotional eating. Or maybe you've already tried most of what's out there, from books to structured programs, and you're left wondering why none of it fully stuck.  Either way, I'm breaking down the four things that actually get you to trusting yourself around food again, and why more willpower or another set of food rules was never going to be one of them. What you'll discover: Why information and support alone weren't enoughThe four things that actually create peace with foodWhy shame keeps people stuck instead of motivating changeWhat it actually feels like to trust yourself around foodIf you've tried nearly everything to stop binge eating or emotional eating and you're starting to wonder what you're missing, this episode is for you.

    Everything You Wish You Could Ask Your Doctor About GLP-1s

    In this episode, I'm continuing last week's conversation about GLP-1 medications, but this time I brought in someone who actually is the expert. Dr. Matthea Rentea, a board certified internal medicine and obesity medicine physician, joins me to answer the questions I'm not qualified to answer myself.  Maybe you're on a GLP-1 right now and know there's more to it than what your last appointment covered. Or maybe you're considering one and don't know where to start. Either way, we get into what these medications actually do in the body, who they're really for, and what almost nobody tells you about using them well for the long haul.  What you'll discover: Why GLP-1s target a hormonal problem, not a willpower oneThe warning signs of losing muscle too fast, and how to prevent itWhy going without the right support can backfireHow to tell if your medical team is helping or hurting youIf you've ever wondered whether you're using a GLP-1 the right way, or whether it's the right choice at all, this conversation is for you. Previous episodes referenced: What a GLP-1 Can't Do for Your Binge Eating If this conversation left you with more questions, Dr. Rentea has answers waiting.

    In this episode, I'm answering a handful of questions that come up again and again around GLP-1 medications and binge eating. Maybe you're on one right now and still working out what it means for you. Or maybe you're considering starting one and aren't sure what to expect. Either way, I get into what these medications can actually do, what they can't touch, and what it really takes to feel at peace with food, whether you use one or not. What you'll discover: Why a GLP-1 is a tool, but never the only oneWhat these medications can quiet, and what stays underneathWhat determines whether old patterns return when you stopWhat no medication can touch, no matter how much weight changesIf you've ever wondered whether using a GLP-1 means you didn't really do the work, or you're on one and still don't feel at peace with food, this episode is for you.

    Who Are You Without the Food Struggle?

    In this episode, I'm answering a question your brain may already be asking without you realizing it. Maybe you're still in it, trying to stop binge eating or find some peace with food. Or maybe you've already reached your goal and don't know what to do with yourself, or your life, without the constant food noise. Either way, I explore why the food struggle can quietly become an identity, and what it actually takes to figure out who you are without binge eating or the constant focus on food, diet, and weight. What You'll Discover: Why the food struggle becomes an identity, not just a behaviorWhy "who would I be without this" is so hard to answerWhat's actually underneath the struggleHow to build an identity your brain can move towardIf you've ever felt like food, diet, or weight has taken up more space in your life than you'd like, whether you're in the thick of it or standing on the other side wondering what's next, this episode is for you.

    The Part of You That Checks Out

    This episode explores the part that goes numb, zones out, and checks out when things get hard, and what it means that so much eating happens while we're not fully there. I draw on my own experience of surfacing mid-binge and not knowing where I'd been, and look at why eating on autopilot makes complete sense as a protective strategy, and what it actually takes to start building enough safety to stay present. What You'll Discover: Why eating on autopilot and zoning out around food aren't about willpower and what the part doing the checking out is actually protecting you fromWhy the checking out tends to get harder to interrupt over time and what it costs you to keep not being thereWhat the part that checks out actually needs and why trying to force yourself to stay present tends to make it worseWhy the most useful moment isn't when you checked out and everything to do with what was happening right beforeIf you've ever found yourself coming back to awareness mid-binge and genuinely not knowing how you got there, this episode is for you.

    The Part of You That Hides

    Does it ever feel like you are living a double life? Where you eat one way around other people but a completely different way in secret? Do you have a part of you that wants to hide your eating behaviors but don't understand why you do it or how to stop? In this episode, I share from my own experience of hiding my binge eating for years, including a memory of sneaking food as a young child, and explore why secret eating and hiding food make complete sense as a protective strategy, and what it actually takes to begin stepping out of it. What You'll Discover: Why secret eating and hiding food aren't character flaws and what the part doing the hiding is actually trying to doWhy the hiding tends to increase the shame over time and what living a double life around food costs over timeWhat the part that hides actually needs and why forced accountability tends to backfireWhy the first step out of hiding has nothing to do with telling anyone and everything to do with how you see yourselfIf you've been carrying this alone, whether no one knows at all or the people in your life only know part of it, this episode is for you.

    What Does It Mean to Feel Safe in Your Body?

    If the idea of feeling safe in your body sounds unfamiliar, or even a little strange, you're not alone. In this episode we explore why so many people disconnect from their bodies in the first place, why that disconnection makes complete sense as a nervous system response, and what safety in the body actually feels like when you begin to find it.  You'll also get a short guided experience to help you recognize that feeling for yourself, and one simple daily practice to start building it. What You'll Discover: Why disconnecting from your body is a nervous system adaptation, not a character flawHow the two-way communication between your brain and body shapes your relationship with foodWhat feeling safe in your body actually feels like, and how to begin recognizing itWhy this work is often hard to do alone, and what co-regulation makes possible If you've ever wondered why you reach for food even when you're not hungry, or why being still and quiet feels unbearable, this episode may answer questions you didn't know you had.  Want to go deeper?  Explore The Gathering, a monthly guided experience to learn how to trust yourself.
