REPLAY - Grit: Overcoming Obstacles With Oonagh: Emotional Eating, Holidays and Halloween Candy

Emotional Eating, Halloween Candy, and Thanksgiving—Oh My!

SHOW NOTES

Costumes, Kitsch, and Festivity...I LOVE HALLOWEEN...but I know some of my clients don't feel the same way.

In fact, for a lot of you, the scariest thing this spooky season is that bag of Reese's (or whatever bag of sugar that gets your rocks off) taunting you from the cabinet. 

Let’s take a look back at last year's advice on how to handle emotional eating and holiday snacking. Because surprise, what held true last season still holds true today!

Whether it’s stress-eating your feelings, juggling the chaos of holiday travel and parties, or going back for more Halloween candy after you said you were done. 

The common thread here? It's all about owning your choices—taking charge or letting the circumstances run the show.

How you approach these moments is key to shaping your habits, and that is where the magic happens.

Food? It's just one of many tools in your life toolkit. Shift your mindset and explore other ways to feel supported, and bam—you’re on the right track!

Feeling stuck in this mental maze? Need a helping hand? Let’s dive into the three things Tony Robbins says can transform your state of mind: physiology, focus, and meaning.

Sneaky KitKat or not… It's YOU calling the shots.

WHAT’S INSIDE:

  • Does using food for comfort make you a bad person?
  • Finding strength in owning your decisions instead of letting circumstances control you.
  • What’s the deeper meaning behind that Halloween candy for you?
  • Three things you can control to shift how you feel.

Don’t let the Halloween candy hiding in your pantry scare you!!! You’re the boss of your body and your choices, so what does that mean to you? How are you going to own your choice to not eat the candy or to decide to eat it? Let me know on Insta!

SHOW NOTES

So you wanna ask Oonagh?

I’ve combed over some FAQs and important questions from my MFA groups and we’re talking about something everyone has experience with... self soothing with food.

Whether it’s emotional eating, feeling out of control with holiday travel and parties, or that pesky but sweet sweet Halloween candy in the cabinet.

There is a common theme surrounding all of these events…taking control of your choices and owning them, OR falling victim to circumstance.

How you frame these situations makes all the difference in the shaping of habits, THIS is the real work.

Food is but a tool in the tool belt of life, and when you adjust how you view it and learn how to use more diverse tools for support… you're on track, baby!

SO are you in this mental minefield? Do you need a lifeline? I’m gonna talk you through three things Tony Robbins says you need to change to change how you feel: Physiology, Focus, and Meaning.

Who's the boss? You or the KitKat?

WHAT’S INSIDE:

  • Is it inherently bad to self soothe with food?
  • The power of owning your choices instead of falling victim.
  • Halloween candy: what does it mean to you?
  • Three things you can control to change how you feel.

KitKats, Reese’s cups… whatever Halloween candy you have queued up for the coming trick-or-treaters; what does it mean to you? How are you going to own your choice to not eat the candy or to decide to eat it?
