Ever feel like your willpower betrays you—especially when it comes to food, habits, or self-sabotage? That’s not a flaw in your character; it’s a clue. In this episode, we explore the subconscious mind—the silent powerhouse behind 95% of your decisions. You’ll learn why all the intention in the world can’t overcome deeply embedded beliefs formed between ages one and seven, especially if those beliefs tell you that change isn’t safe, success isn’t for you, or food is your only comfort.

I’ll walk you through why traditional methods like positive thinking, strict routines, or willpower alone often fall short. The real breakthrough? Combining conscious change with subconscious rewiring. Using Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), we can access and reframe the original root of limiting beliefs—while you remain fully present and aware in a relaxed, receptive state. When this subconscious shift is paired with practical tools and habit work, true, lasting transformation becomes possible—and easeful.

You'll also hear about my new program, Six Weeks to Freedom, designed to help you stop fighting yourself and finally align your actions with your desires. This unique blend of hypnotherapy and coaching includes two RTT sessions and four transformational coaching sessions over six weeks. Whether you're battling emotional eating, procrastination, low confidence, or chronic people-pleasing, this program meets you at the root. It’s a powerful opportunity to create real change—limited to just five participants in this special beta round. Check the link in the show notes to learn more and grab your spot!

In this must-listen episode, I sit down with my own hormone replacement therapy doctor, Dr. Peter Castillo, to uncover the truth about hormone changes and how they impact women’s health—starting as early as our 30s.

Dr. Castillo is a board-certified urogynecologist and founder of Swan Medical, with practices in Danville and Los Gatos, CA. After years of treating pelvic floor issues, he realized that many of his patients’ symptoms stemmed from hormone insufficiencies—and that sparked his mission to educate and empower women to reclaim their vitality.

We talk candidly about:

• Why hormone shifts often begin in your 30s—not just at menopause
• The silent suffering many women endure due to lack of education and support
• How hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can transform energy, mood, cognition, sleep, and libido
• Common misconceptions about menopause and aging
• The importance of comprehensive lab testing and personalized treatment
• The barriers women face—like medical gaslighting and insurance limitations—and how to advocate for yourself
• Why hormone optimization is about more than symptom relief—it's about your brain, heart, and quality of life

If you’ve ever felt dismissed, depleted, or in the dark about your hormone health, this episode will arm you with clarity, confidence, and actionable steps.

🎧 Tune in now and start advocating for you.

After experiencing a serious car accident and learning I was pre-diabetic despite maintaining a normal weight, I was forced to reevaluate everything I believed about nutrition and health. For years, I coached clients through emotional eating under the assumption that moderation and stable weight were enough. But my own health journey revealed the limitations of that thinking—our bodies often signal imbalances long before the scale does. This wake-up call pushed me to dive deeper into how food affects us beyond weight, especially as we age.

As a result, The Breakthrough Emotional Eating Podcast is expanding in scope. While emotional eating remains at the heart of what we do, we’ll now explore personalized nutrition with insights from a range of experts in health and fitness. This isn’t about rigid rules or food restrictions—it’s about tuning into your unique biochemistry and learning what truly supports your energy, vitality, and well-being. Whether you're navigating emotional eating, low energy, or seeking a more intuitive approach to food, this new chapter is for you. Follow along on Instagram @BreakthroughEmotionalEating for continued support and connection.
