Females Thriving Over ThirtyShow Notes
You can run a business, a household and a packed calendar — so why does eating well feel impossible? In this episode of Females Thriving Over 30, Soraya sits down with holistic nutritionist Casey Weiss to unpack why high-achieving, type A women get trapped in cycles of dieting, overeating, food guilt and starting over every Monday — and why discipline and willpower are exactly the wrong tools for the job. Casey shares her own journey from chronic dieting and food obsession to food freedom, and breaks down the psychology and biology behind the all-or-nothing eating pattern: perfectionism, "good food vs bad food" thinking, food noise, and the blood sugar roller coaster that drives nighttime overeating.
