Is confirmation bias keeping you stuck in negative thought patterns around food? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re diving into how our brains latch onto beliefs like "I always overeat during the holidays" or "I can’t control myself around treats"—and why they might not be true at all.

I’ll walk you through what confirmation bias is, how it shows up in your life (especially around holiday gatherings), and practical ways to start breaking free from it. You’ll learn how to challenge those automatic thoughts and shift your mindset to approach food with more freedom and ease this holiday season.

If you’ve ever felt trapped in the “overeat, feel guilty, repeat” cycle, this episode is for you.
