Make Peace With Food
Why do we keep self-sabotaging when we know what to do? The Make Peace With Food Podcast goes beyond food freedom, neutrality, and intuitive eating to uncover what drives self-sabotage — from cravings and binge eating to how we cope with stress, past wounds, relationships, money, and life itself. Hosted by Sherry Shaban, creator of the Make Peace With Food™ Method, it explores the biology, psychology, and subconscious forces shaping behavior so you can create lasting change.
