Ep 565- Are You Passive Aggressive?

In this episode, I’m diving into a pattern so many emotional eaters struggle with—passive aggressive behavior.

Together, we’ll explore why emotional eaters fall into these patterns, how they keep us stuck with food, and the small, brave shifts that help us communicate honestly, feel safe with our emotions, and finally break free.
