  • Perfectionism is a Trauma Response with Garrett Wood

    Perfectionism is a Trauma Response with Garrett Wood
    Mar 2 2026
    What if the drive that helped you succeed is the same force slowly burning you out?In this episode, I sit down with hypnotherapist and wellness coach Garrett Wood to explore a truth many high performers quietly live with: chronic stress hidden behind achievement. Garrett, an NBC-HWC, clinical hypnotherapist, executive functioning specialist, and founder of Gnosis Therapy, helps high-achieving leaders break the boom-and-bust cycle of burnout through a nervous-system-first approach.We discuss perfectionism, shame, nervous system overload, and why burnout doesn’t arrive overnight — it builds quietly beneath success.This conversation is for the high achiever, the perfectionist, and the one who appears to have it all together while constantly chasing “enough.”The Hidden Cost of PerformanceGarrett shares how high-performance environments can train us to measure self-worth through output. I deeply relate to the pattern where validation feels earned through achievement and rest feels undeserved. Sleep, health, and relationships often deteriorate quietly while productivity rises.Perfectionism & ShamePerfectionism isn’t about excellence — it’s rooted in beliefs like I am not enough, I am not safe, or I am fundamentally flawed. These beliefs often form early through emotional interpretation rather than explicit messages. Overcompensation can look powerful, but it quietly erodes well-being.Burnout Is ProgressiveBurnout typically moves through stages: driven excitement → sacrificing recovery → wired but exhausted → depletion → shutdown. What feels sudden is often the result of long-ignored signals.Why Self-Care Isn’t Always EnoughWorkouts, meditation, or downtime can regulate stress, but they don’t complete the stress response if emotions remain unprocessed. High achievers often override emotional signals — “fine” becomes the default, even though fine isn’t an emotion. Garrett encourages becoming a “sommelier” of your emotions: identifying, locating, and processing what you feel.Imposter Syndrome & Self-TalkImposter syndrome can be awareness rather than inadequacy. When fear pairs with “I’m not enough,” burnout accelerates. When it pairs with “I’m learning,” resilience grows.What Leads to BurnoutHigh ambition, emotional suppression, identity tied to performance, underlying shame, and lack of stress discharge practices all accumulate. Over time, the nervous system collects its debt.Closing ReflectionThis conversation isn’t about becoming less ambitious.It’s about becoming safer inside your ambition — because achievement without safety becomes self-abandonment.Work with Garrette Wood:Website: www.gnosistherapy.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/wood.garrettInstagram: www.instagram.com/gnosistherapyLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/gnosistherapyWork With Sherry:Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call now and start your journey to lasting change!

  • How Fear Drives Binge Eating

    How Fear Drives Binge Eating
    Feb 26 2026
    In this episode, I dive into one of the most overlooked drivers of unwanted eating: fear. I explore how judgment, self-berating, and a focus on outcomes can keep us stuck — and how curiosity can become your most powerful tool for breaking patterns.This conversation is about stepping into your nervous system, understanding cravings, and reconnecting with your natural state of curiosity — the very thing that fuels growth, learning, and freedom from emotional eating.1. Judgment vs. CuriosityNotice how often we show up with:JudgmentAngerDisappointmentSelf-beratingChasing an ideal version of ourselves through criticism rather than curiosity often blocks the results we want. Instead, try asking:“What if I approached my behaviors with curiosity instead of blame?”2. Your Nervous System Holds the AnswersOur nervous system stores:Hormonal programs influencing cravingsPsychological programs from past experiencesEnvironmental cues that trigger automatic behaviorsCravings are often context-dependent:On vacation in Mexico, nights are free from snacking.Certain environments reduce cravings for alcohol or cannabis.Understanding these patterns lets us ask why behaviors show up — without guilt or blame, just curiosity.3. Childhood Curiosity as a ModelAs kids, every action was guided by curiosity:“What would happen if I did this?”“How would this feel?”“Let me try this.”Childhood games like jumping off couches or the “lava game” show fearlessness and curiosity were innate. As adults, we trade curiosity for control, fueling fear and unwanted eating4. Fear Is the Hidden DriverFear underlies almost every unwanted eating behavior:Nighttime snackingSkipping or restricting mealsMindless or emotional eatingBinge eatingFear arises when we try to control everything instead of leaning into curiosity and exploring the unknown.5. Shift from “How” to “Who”Instead of “How do I fix this?”, ask:“Who can support me?”“Who can I reach out to for guidance?”This shifts energy from fear-driven control to curiosity-driven action. Trying to figure everything out alone takes longer and often produces less optimal results. Support guided by curiosity opens space for safety, learning, and freedom from self-sabotage.Key TakeawaysCuriosity is your natural state; reclaim it.Fear drives unwanted eating more than willpower.Judging yourself blocks insight; curiosity opens it.Context and environment strongly influence cravings.Shift from “how” to “who” when uncertain.Journal PromptsWhere am I approaching behaviors with judgment instead of curiosity?How does my environment influence my cravings and habits?When was the last time I acted purely out of curiosity as a child?Who can support me where I feel uncertain or fearful?How can I bring curiosity into my next eating or health choice?Closing ThoughtCuriosity is the antidote to fear. Approaching my nervous system, cravings, and behaviors with curiosity instead of judgment unlocks insight, freedom, and lasting transformation.Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call now and start your journey to lasting change!

  • How to Heal Autoimmune Conditions with Sophie Shepherd

    How to Heal Autoimmune Conditions with Sophie Shepherd
    Feb 23 2026
    If you’ve ever struggled with chronic gut issues, thyroid or autoimmune conditions, or wondered why “everything looks normal” but life feels anything but, this episode is for you. In this episode, I’m thrilled to have Sophie Shepherd join me for a heartfelt conversation about the connection between emotional trauma and our gut, thyroid, and autoimmune conditions. We explore how chronic stress, past experiences, and unresolved emotions can manifest as physical health challenges — and how to pick up the early signs of dis-ease. Sophie and I discuss her journey, insights, and practical approaches, which beautifully align with the work I do helping women reclaim their health, hormones and nervous system balance.1. When Life Guides Your CallingSophie shares her story of how chronic gut issues, autoimmune disease and high-stress living led her to functional medicine and NLP. Sophie helps us reflect on the importance of listening to our bodies and life circumstances — before it’s too late. 2. Early Warnings & MisdiagnosisSophie talks about how she navigated subtle but persistent symptoms like chronic diarrhea, bloating, acid reflux, and mental health struggles — symptoms often dismissed by doctors. Sophie and I discuss the emotional impact of being told “everything looks normal” and the empowerment of trusting your body’s signals.3. Trauma, Safety, and Autoimmune ConnectionsSophie shares how emotional trauma and patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, and suppression of anger contribute to thyroid and autoimmune conditions. Sophie and I discuss why nervous system regulation is critical for recovery and how trauma can manifest physically in the gut and thyroid.4. NLP, Hypnosis, and Mindset ShiftsWe dive into the tools that transform: neural linguistics programming, hypnosis, and quantum time technique. Sophie and I discuss how identifying and shifting limiting beliefs, releasing old trauma, and rewiring thought patterns can support real healing from chronic conditions.5. Observations in Women With Autoimmune ConditionsSophie and I reflect on patterns we see in our clients: chronic stress, internalized anger, people-pleasing, gut expressions of emotional states, and difficulty feeling safe slowing down. Sophie and I connect these patterns to holistic approaches to health that integrate the mind, body, and nervous system.Your Takeaways From This EpisodePay attention to early physical and emotional signals.Trauma and stress can drive chronic illness — nervous system work matters.Shifting limiting beliefs supports physical healing.Empowered choices create pathways to better health.Work with Sophie:Mineral Mocktail Guide: https://shetalkshealth.com/mineral-mocktail-guide/ Thyroid Health Audit Call: https://l.bttr.to/JChUc HTMA Mineral Reset: https://l.bttr.to/WfoEz Free Health Discovery Call: www.shetalkshealth.com/contact Stop Guessing at Your Thyroid & Get Answers Now: https://ace.shetalkshealth.com/home-front Work With Sherry:Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call now and start your journey to lasting change!
