Episode 79: Why hyper intelligent women struggle the most with food...and exactly how to heal

0:00 24:56

If you consider yourself to be highly intelligent, a high achiever, type A, or a perfectionist…and you also struggle with food and your body, this episode is for you! I have noticed a pattern in my clients and women in the world, where highly successful women struggle the most with food and their weight. In today’s episode, I’m sharing exactly why you might struggle with food as a high achieving woman, and how to heal!

I discuss…

• Why hyper intelligent, high achieving, type A, perfectionist women struggle the most with food • My own personal journey of food struggles tied to my intelligence • Why you can figure things out in other areas of your life, but food and your body feel so confusing • Brain led eating vs body led eating • Why knowing so much about nutrition can be detrimental to your success • How overthinking is a compensatory mechanism for under feeling • The nervous system of high achieving women • How nervous system dysregulation in these women affects food • How to heal your relationship with food as a hyper intelligent woman
