Rise and Align With Food
Reshanda Yates discusses how to stop binge eating so you can lose weight, have energy, focus, and be present for your family and children. Learn why you binge and how to stop bingeing on sweets and carbs. Move from information to implementation and past the frustration of knowing what to do but never being able to do it. Be able to trust yourself alone with all the sweet treats and not dig into the kitchen when no one else is around. In this podcast, Reshanda shares her own stories of struggling with binge eating for 10 years. She knows first-hand what it’s like to promise again and again that this will be the last time, only to wake up the next morning and repeat the same cycle. She understands the guilt and shame that can go hand in hand with binge eating having done every insane thing in the book with food, including eating out of the trash can after throwing food away. She believes if she can come back from that, anyone can.

257: What Happens When Urges Lose Their Power: The Liberating Ripple Effects No One Talks About
That moment when an urge hits out of nowhere…
And suddenly your entire day feels hijacked.
It’s not just about the food.
It’s about the spiral that follows—the mental fog, the negotiation, the exhaustion of being at war with yourself.
In Episode 257, I break down what’s really happening when urges arise—and the hidden cost of constantly trying to outthink, fight, or resist them.
This episode isn’t about more discipline or “being stronger.”
It’s about expanding your emotional capacity so urges stop running the show.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
✨ Why urges are just signals—not failures
✨ How the urge spiral drains your confidence, presence, and energy
✨ What changes when you stop fighting yourself and start staying with yourself
✨ How this one shift can ripple into your relationships, identity, and self-trust
When you learn how to stop the spiral, it’s not just about food.
It’s about freedom.
