From Binge to Balance: Food Addiction Recovery for High Achievers (Ep 177)
“Are you hustling your way to success… with a side of secret snacks?”
In this episode of Genuine Life Recovery, we dive into the surprising truth about food addiction—especially in the world of busy entrepreneurs. Is it really just about overeating, or is something deeper at play?
Licensed therapist Jennifer Schrappe joins me to unpack:
-
The difference between a sweet tooth and a true addiction
-
How stress, dopamine, and those late-night hustle sessions fuel compulsive eating
-
Why high-achievers are so prone to emotional eating during launches, deadlines, and financial stress
-
Practical ways to break the shame cycle and build a healthier relationship with food—without sacrificing your goals
We also explore the connection between food, mental health, and faith—because your body isn’t a stress dumpster; it’s part of your calling.
If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’m just too busy to eat right,” this episode is for you.
