173: From night eating, Adderall abuse, gut issues, and binge cycles to naturally thin and a body that feels safe: Kathleen’s story
04/08/2026 | 37 minOoooo this is a deep one. In this raw episode, my Heart Led Eating alumni Kathleen shares how she went from a deep binge restrict cycle, 60 lbs of weight gain, night eating with kitchen locks, debilitating gut issues, and an Adderall addiction…to healing it all and becoming naturally thin.
We discuss...
Generational food and body issues
The dark reality of using substances like Adderall to control appetite and weight
Night eating…the shame, the locks on every cabinet, waking up having eaten a jar of peanut butter with no memory of it
Living between extremes: tracking every bite or full-on binging, gaining or losing, never just existing in a normal body
Coming off years of ultra-strict diets (carnivore, keto, etc.) and relearning how to eat normally
How the simple act of eating can feel traumatizing and how nervous system work rewires that
Completely healing her gut issues (zero bloating, zero pain, zero SIBO symptoms) through Heart Led Eating
Weight slowly stabilizing at her smallest in a very long time, with zero fear of uncontrollable gain ever again
Kathleen and I’s Mexico trip: two full weeks of eating out every single meal, desserts, processed food…and feeling completely free and normal
Advice Kathleen would give to any new Heart Led Eaters

Medical Disclaimer- Naturally thin people are already eating like they’re on Ozempic (they literally get the ick from overeating) without ever taking a shot. In this episode I’m breaking down exactly how to get thin without peptides by addressing the real root cause.
I discuss...
How peptides make you forcefully thin (and why that is not the same as being naturally thin)
Why naturally thin people already get the “ick” from overeating without any interventions
The real reason most people carry excess storage
Why removing the food buffer without growing nervous system capacity can be dangerous
The consequences of peptides that a lot of people are ignoring
“ozemepic personality”
Can you do Heart Led Eating while taking peptides?

Medical Disclaimer 171: Scared you’ll gain weight if you stop tracking your food? Listen to Laura’s Heart Led Eating transformation
21/07/2026 | 41 minWhat if tracking calories to try and manage your weight was actually keeping you stuck? And letting it go didn’t cause chaos, but brought peace, stable weight, better health markers, and a completely different relationship with your body? Today, my Heart Led Eating student, Laura, shares her powerful journey from restriction, pregnancy weight gain, yo-yo cycles, every diet phase (low-fat, low-sugar, high-protein, high-fiber), constant food noise, and fear of losing control...to discovering the root cause and finally trusting her body’s built-in calorie calculator.
We discuss...
How scoliosis, societal praise for smallness, and being short wired a deep drive to always be as small as possible
Decades of calorie tracking, packaged foods for “accuracy,” low-fat/no-sugar eras, exercise as pure calorie burn, and the mental exhaustion of constant management
Being scared to stop tracking calories and “lose control”
The root cause of grazing on food all day long
Releasing the obsession with being the smallest
Tangible health wins: normalized cholesterol (first time in 11 years), improving DEXA/bone density scan, better energy (no more afternoon crashes), and stable weight without tracking
Why this isn’t “eat whatever and accept excess weight”

Medical Disclaimer- You’re not disordered for wanting to be thin. When we live in times of food abundance, the human body’s natural state is thinness. In this episode I’m breaking down why excess storage feels so bad, why your brain actually wants you to be thin in times of abundance, and how to get back to your body’s natural design without force or restriction.
I discuss...
Why carrying excess storage feels bad (it’s not about vanity or society beauty standards)
Why it’s not disordered to want to be thin.
The difference between naturally thin and underweight/skinny
How emotional eating traps pain in the body and why we don’t need “survival fat” anymore
How dieting and restricting keeps your brain and body in famine mode
Why so many women secretly want to be thin but are afraid to say it
How nervous system regulation and reconnecting to your built-in calorie calculator make thinness feel inevitable and effortless

07/07/2026 | 41 minImagine being able to enjoy your favorite foods (including homemade scones and cookies) while still releasing excess weight…all without tracking a single thing. My Heart Led Eating student Allison shares her full journey: from childhood body confusion in the ’90s diet culture era, through puberty changes, family “Clark butt” comments, black-and-white thinking, multiple diets (Weight Watchers, keto, macros), binge-purge eating disorder behaviors, postpartum restriction while nursing, and diving headfirst into wellness culture... to finally eating like a naturally thin woman.
We discuss:
How growing up with skinny motivation, fat phobia, and family dynamics wired early fear and confusion around food
The exhausting swing between being forcefully thin and feeling out of control with “intuitive eating”
Allison’s rock bottom binge moment while breastfeeding
How wellness obsession was just another form of dieting
When you’ve taken all the courses and are still struggling
