Holiday Eating Without Guilt: A New Way to Navigate the Holidays

The holidays are supposed to be joyful, but for so many women, they come with food guilt, stress, and the pressure to “be good” around food.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why holiday eating feels so hard, and why the stress you feel around food isn’t a personal failure it’s a predictable response to restriction, pressure, and outdated nutrition rules.

I walk you through what I call the holiday diet trap: the cycle of restriction, overeating, guilt, and shame that shows up every year, and explain why trying to control food more actually leads to less control.

We talk about how holiday stress impacts your physiology, your appetite, and your food choices, and why mindful eating isn’t about willpower, it’s about creating safety, presence, and freedom around food.

This episode is a call to shift from restriction to nourishment, from fear to trust, and from guilt to an abundance mindset so you can enjoy holiday food, feel good in your body, and stay connected to what actually matters.

If you’re tired of white-knuckling your way through holiday eating, this episode will change how you approach food —not just during the holidays, but for good.
