How do you break free from emotional eating, binge eating, and diet culture — without another restrictive diet? In this episode of Recipe for Wellness, host Sanjay Raja sits down with Penny Donald, Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) and Licensed Emotional & Binge Eating Practitioner, to explore building a peaceful, sustainable relationship with food.
Penny is the creator of the unHungry Method, a mindset-first approach to lasting health that goes beyond diet and exercise. Together, she and Sanjay dig into why willpower fails chronic dieters, how stress and sleep drive cravings and the ”stress-snacking cycle,” and how to quiet food noise and rebuild self-trust around eating.
What you'll learn:
• Why the lose–regain–restart weight loss cycle keeps repeating — and how to stop starting over
• The link between stress, sleep, and emotional eating (and how to regulate it)
• How to move past ”good vs. bad” food rules, all-or-nothing thinking, and food shame
• Building real-life healthy habits, food freedom, and confidence with your choices
• A look at coaching clients through GLP-1 medications and sustainable, whole-food nutrition
