EP. 59 : What Do I Do When I Feel Like Food Controls My Life? | Q&A
Does food take up more space in your mind than you want it to? Maybe you reach for something to eat when you’re stressed, or the cravings get louder on your drive home. Then comes the thought: “Why am I still doing this?”
In this Q&A episode of Crush Cravings with Confidence, I’m answering three questions from women in our Women’s Emotional Eating Community Support Group about constant food thoughts, stress eating, and cravings after work.
I’m sharing experiences from my own decades of dieting and exploring how self-discovery can help you approach familiar patterns with more curiosity and less judgment.
In this episode, we explore:
✨ Feeling like food controls your life and questioning what “control” means to you.
✨ The exhausting cycle of stress eating, guilt, and feeling like you should have figured it out by now.
✨ Food thoughts throughout the day and cravings on the drive home.
✨ Learning to pause, notice what you’re feeling, and come back to the present.
✨ Recognizing all-or-nothing thinking and taking smaller, more manageable steps.
✨ “Weed thoughts” and “seed thoughts”: my way of describing automatic patterns and new thoughts you can practice.
You don’t have to figure everything out today. Start by meeting yourself where you are, with kindness and a willingness to get curious.

EPISODE 58: The Real Root of Self-Sabotage (And Why It's Not a Character Flaw) Crush Cravings With Confidence with Coach Lisa Callahan
If you've ever told yourself "I'm my own worst enemy" or "I just can't trust myself around food" — this one's for you. In this episode, Lisa breaks down why self-sabotage isn't a character flaw, it's a symptom, and why it always starts from a good place before it gets weaponized against you.
You'll learn: Why self-sabotage and self-love live on opposite sides of the same coin The real reason setting big goals can quietly set you up to fail What self-sabotage and emotional eating actually have in common Why no amount of nutrition knowledge or willpower fixes an emotional problem How to start rebuilding trust with yourself, one honest check-in at a time
Grab a pen — Lisa leaves you with 3 journal questions to reflect on:
Where does self-sabotage keep showing up in the same way, over and over?
Where's the biggest gap between what I say I want and what I actually do?
What's one automatic thought I have about myself — and what if I never had to think it again?

Episode 57: 3 “Healthy Habits” That Are Sabotaging Your Weight Loss Goals (You’ll Be SHOCKED!!)
Hey, hey — welcome back to Crush Cravings With Confidence! I'm so glad you're here for this one, because this episode just might be the missing piece you've been looking for.
If you've ever done everything "right" — tracked your food, hit your step goals, meal prepped, followed the plan — and still ended up frustrated and back where you started, this episode is for you. And I want you to hear this clearly: you are not the problem.
Today I'm breaking down 3 healthy habits that are actually fueling the self-sabotage cycle for emotional eaters — and why no amount of meal planning, calorie counting, or willpower is going to fix what's really going on underneath.
In this episode:
Why obsessively tracking your food is keeping you stuck (not helping you)
How conditional goal-setting ("I'll be happy when I lose the weight") is quietly wrecking your self-worth
What psychologist Gay Hendricks calls the "Upper Limit Problem" — and how it blows up your progress every time things start going well
The 4 unconscious barriers that keep your internal "success thermostat" set too low.
Why this is NOT a willpower problem — and what it actually is
The real work isn't on your plate. It's on the inside. And once you understand that, everything changes.
