I'm so excited to share my latest podcast episode with all of you! I had the honor of interviewing Dr. Susan Peirce Thompson, a neuroscientist and founder of the Bright Line Eating program. 

 

In this incredibly insightful conversation, Susan peeled back the layers on the science behind food addiction and offered a blueprint for finding freedom. She shared her own story of battling disordered eating for years before finally discovering the key to sustainable weight loss. 

 

I was blown away as Susan explained how modern processed foods can truly hijack the brain's reward system, flooding it with dopamine and triggering the same addictive pathways as drugs. This helps explain why so many of us feel trapped in cycles of overeating certain foods and yet unable to stop.

 

The good news is Susan has developed a science-based program called Bright Line Eating that gives clear guidance on what to eat and, just as importantly, how to rewire your brain to overcome food obsession. She's helped hundreds of thousands of people break free from food addiction and transform their health.

 

I learned so much from hearing Susan's story and expertise. This conversation is an absolute must-listen if you feel controlled by food rather than being in control of it. Tune in to understand yourself on a deeper level and start your own journey towards food freedom!

 

Please share this episode with anyone you know who might benefit from learning about overcoming chronic dieting and disordered eating habits. I sincerely hope this information helps spark positive change in your life
