Reshanda

Ever notice how, after receiving critical feedback or making a mistake, all you can think about is getting home to dive into Ben & Jerry's?

If you're a driven, high-achieving woman who's crushing it in your career but secretly struggling with food and weight, this episode is for you.

You'd be shocked to know how many women in powerful positions face this exact challenge behind closed doors. The truth is, there's a common trap that keeps successful women stuck in this cycle – and it has nothing to do with willpower or discipline.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • The real reason your brain keeps triggering food urges during emotional discomfort
  • Why trying to "be stronger" is exactly the wrong approach
  • The counterintuitive shift that brings your prefrontal cortex back online
  • How to build what I call "trigger immunity" – confidence in any environment
  • Why this particular emotion isn't a weakness, but actually your hidden superpower
  • The simple focus shift that rewires your brain while building resilience

This isn't about restriction or fighting cravings. It's about discovering the power that's already inside you to face any moment of dis

comfort without automatically reaching for food.

If you're tired of letting food hold you back from the leader you're meant to be, this episode will give you a completely new perspective on what's really happening – and what to do about it.
