Episode Summary
Ever find yourself standing in the pantry late at night, mindlessly eating your favorite salty snack straight from the bag? Been there! 👋
But we all know that’s not the best thing we could be doing for our metabolic health. Today, I’m joined by Amber Romaniuk, an Emotional Eating, Digestive, and Hormone Expert, for a raw and empowering conversation on why so many women—especially in midlife—feel stuck in cycles of emotional eating just as hormones, energy, and motivation start to shift.
We explore why this struggle isn’t about willpower, but a deeper call for healing, and how your body’s cravings are often tied to hidden hormone chaos during perimenopause and menopause.
Amber shares her own powerful journey of breaking free from binge eating while healing her gut and hormones, and offers practical tools to help you build trust with your body again.
If you’re ready to step out of guilt and into compassion and freedom with food and your body, tune in to this episode!

QUOTES
“Working on blood sugar balance– they start to have a more stable mood, more stable energy. Their cravings start to drop. They have less urge to emotionally eat or binge.”
“There’s gonna be many levels of dealing with that trigger, including probably hormone support and reprioritizing yourself on your schedule, which is going to take time setting boundaries.”
“Be patient, ladies. It’s not about willpower, it’s not about trying harder. It’s about knowing this kind of vulnerable time and going, ‘Okay, maybe I wanna build this time a little differently. If I know I’m vulnerable, what would be a habit or a self-care practice just to help me through this time?’”
