Summary

Getting a degree or starting a new business? No one expects that to go perfectly. So why do we demand perfection of ourselves when it comes to losing weight? Gina Livy sits down with food addiction expert Sandra Elia to unpack the real reasons weight loss feels so complicated. Together, they explore the difference between habits, emotional eating, and true food addiction, while addressing the pressure of perfection that so many people feel in their journey. Listen and walk away with a clearer understanding of how to break old patterns, build supportive habits, and approach goals with more patience, awareness, and compassion. Sandra is the founder of The Food Addiction Recovery Program and the author of "Never Enough: Three Pillars of Food Addiction Recovery".
