The podcast episode is an interview with Yayoi Komiyama, a neuroencoding specialist and transformation strategist who helps women change their relationship with food. Yayoi shares her personal journey, discussing how she used food as a source of comfort and safety from a young age, leading to struggles with body image and an eating disorder. She explains how food became both a friend and an armor to protect herself from emotional pain, particularly during her childhood and adolescence.

Throughout the episode, Yaoi emphasizes the importance of self-love and self-acceptance as the first steps toward healing. She encourages listeners to start by finding aspects of themselves they can appreciate and gradually building on that positive foundation. The discussion also touches on the need for kindness toward oneself and the process of overcoming negative self-talk.

Yaoi promotes her program "Brain to Belly," which focuses on changing thought patterns to improve one's relationship with food. She also mentions her other ventures, including a TV show, a radio show, and a Facebook group. The podcast concludes with a reminder that bringing hidden struggles to light is key to healing.
