EPISODE 95: The Overeating Cycle No One Is Talking About: Lack of Rest
Tuesday, 23 December, 2025
If the holidays leave you feeling exhausted, out of control around food, and wondering why you can't just stop, this episode is for you. In this week's Outsmart Overeating Podcast, Coach Steph Miramontes and I unpack a pattern I see constantly in chronic dieters: overeating isn't a willpower problem, it's a rest problem. When your life is nonstop go-go-go and food becomes the only way you pause, overeating becomes predictable. We talk about why burned-out dieters struggle most during the holidays, how hustle culture and perfectionism fuel emotional eating, and the key difference between collapsing from exhaustion and becoming a steady rester... someone who rests on purpose before cravings take over. You'll walk away with simple, actionable ways to slow down, reduce urges, and enjoy holiday food without guilt or starting over in January. Plus, I'm sharing a FREE mini training + workbook with a clear, doable strategy to prevent overeating at holiday parties, so you can enjoy the food and the season. Press play if you're ready to stop relying on food for relief and start feeling in control of what and how much you eat, at all times. You can also connect with Leslie & Steph on Instagram. If you're struggling with emotional, binge, or compulsive eating and want to master self-control at every bite while turning the volume down on food noise, watch the FREE "Curb the Urge" mini-training and download the accompanying workbook.
