Binge Eating Recovery

👇This is why
right before you move into a NEW identity
— like stopping the BINGE —
you suddenly start to FEEL FAT.
Not because you’re getting fatter.
But because your FIELD is expanding
faster than your OLD identity can keep up.
Your system is stretching.
Your capacity is upgrading.
Your body is reorganising
around a NEW version of you.
And when we don’t understand this
we PANIC.
We think the feeling means something has gone WRONG.
So we try to FIX it.
CONTROL it.
SHRINK it.
We BINGE.
Not because we’re broken.
But because we misinterpret a SACRED signal.
The binge becomes the self-fulfilling prophecy.
We eat because we FEEL fat
then use the eating
as proof that the feeling was RIGHT.
But the truth is this:
FEELING fat
is not a problem to SOLVE.
It’s a THRESHOLD to CROSS.
If you left it alone.
If you didn’t ATTACK it.
If you didn’t rush
to make it mean something…
The feeling would PASS.
The identity would LAND.
And the binge wouldn’t need to happen.
Because it was NEVER about food.
It was expansion
without language.
That feeling?
It’s not dangerous.
It’s not failure.
It’s SACRED.
And learning to stay with it
is how the OLD pattern finally dissolves.

🛍️I was a walking DESIGNER LABEL…
with a STARVING SOUL.
We tend to split into a few camps when it comes to wealth and luxury:
🎨Some people appreciate it like ART.
🧐Some people judge it… and judge the people who have it.
💊Some people use it as a soothing tool. A shield. A signal. A way to feel ENOUGH.
And the one nobody talks about…
👼🏼The QUIET DESERVERS.
The women who want luxury…
But feel GUILTY for wanting it.
So they downplay their desires.
They shame themselves for craving beauty.
They tell themselves it’s “not important”…
While secretly thinking about it every day.
They don’t judge rich people…
They judge THEMSELVES.
“If I want that, I’m shallow.”
“If I have that, people will hate me.”
“If I enjoy that, I’m a bad person.”
“If I spend on myself, I’m selfish.”
And I’ve lived in ALL of these rooms.
I’ve been the judge.
I’ve been the soother.
I’ve been the secret deserver who pretended she didn’t care.
But the one that nearly destroyed me…
Was the SOOTHER.
Back in my eating disorder days, I spent THOUSANDS on luxury handbags, jewellery, clothes…
When I wasn’t even in the financial position to be doing that.
And I can say it now with so much compassion for that version of me…
I wasn’t buying BEAUTY.
I was buying PERMISSION.
Permission to feel enough.
Permission to be chosen.
Permission to be seen.
Permission to finally be the woman I thought I had to “look like” to be loved.
It was NEVER about the handbag.
It was about the feeling underneath it.
Because while I was sacrificing everything my soul desired…
🍟Carbs.
🍭Sugar.
🧘🏻‍♀️Softness.
🛌Rest.
💃🏻Joy.
I was trying to make up for the emptiness with a purchase.
I’d deprive myself until I felt like I was disappearing…
Then I’d try to compensate with handbags.
Shoes.
Clothes.
Jewellery.
Like…
“Look. I’m okay.”
“Look. I’m successful.”
“Look. I’m desirable.”
Even when I was NOT.
And this is the part that hurts to admit:
I spiralled so often.
Even when I had the body I thought I wanted.
Because my body was NOT the problem.
My nervous system was STARVING.
My heart was STARVING.
My life was CRUMBLING.
While my world was falling apart…
While I was constantly fighting with my partner…
Triggered by my family…
Overwhelmed in my business…
Holding everything together with invisible white knuckles…
I LOOKED SHINY on the outside.
But INSIDE I was SUFFOCATING…
trying to be who I thought I had to be to be loved.
And that’s NOT luxury.
That’s ARMOUR.
That’s survival dressed up as success.
I wasn’t chasing luxury.
I was chasing ENOUGHNESS.
Then something changed.
Not overnight.
Not magically.
But ON PURPOSE.
I stopped trying to BUY the feeling…
and I started building the life that CREATES it instead.
That’s when my relationship with MONEY changed.
Instead of buying “stuff”…
I invested in what actually makes a woman feel RICH.
Not ON me.
IN me.
MY human…
My nervous system.
My health.
My energy.
My standards.
My relationships.
My capacity to receive.
And THIS is the part that surprised me the most…
When the tiny battles started to subside…
When I wasn’t fighting food every day.
When my body wasn’t a warzone.
When my relationship stopped feeling like a battlefield.
When motherhood started feeling CALM.
When my nervous system finally had ROOM to breathe.
That’s when I noticed something shift inside me.
I wasn’t jealous anymore.
I wasn’t judging anymore.
I wasn’t secretly shaming myself for wanting more.
Because I wasn’t chasing ENOUGHNESS anymore.
And it was THEN…
that I started appreciating luxury as ART.
Beauty.
Craftsmanship.
Taste.
Pleasure.
I could see BEYOND the designer label.
I could feel the difference between something worn as ARMOUR…
and something chosen with EASE.
Because I realised something that blew my mind…
The luxury we desire… money, ease, time, freedom…
isn’t something we force.
It’s a BY-PRODUCT.
It’s what happens when you remove the obstacles between you and peace.
Because PEACE can’t exist when your whole life is a battlefield.
It’s like trying to have FREEDOM…
while you’re constructing rules and prisons every single day.
Peace doesn’t come from “trying harder to be peaceful.”
Peace happens when you STOP fighting.
And this is EXACTLY how binge eating works.
We think the binge is the problem…
But the binge is often the BY-PRODUCT of a life that feels impossible to hold.
A woman who is battling:
Her emotions.
Her marriage.
Her body.
Her self worth.
Her finances.
Her identity.
Her past.
Her cravings.
Her guilt.
And then she thinks the solution is…
More CONTROL.
More discipline.
More restrictions.
But all that does is add MORE obstacles.
More pressure.
More war.
And then of course she binges.
Not because she’s broken.
Because her system is trying to create RELIEF.
So when we heal this…
We don’t just “stop binge eating.”
We remove the obstacles between us and our deepest desires.
We stop living in survival mode.
And suddenly…
Time appears.
Energy appears.
Clarity appears.
And REAL luxury appears.
Not because life magically becomes perfect…
But because you’re no longer leaking yourself through 100 tiny battles every day.
And this… is what the Binge to Billions journey actually is:
Learning how to become a woman who can HOLD wealth.
Not just create it.
Because so many people LOOK rich…
but they’re bankrupt in PEACE, health, and love.
Because anyone can make money.
But not everyone can KEEP it.
Not everyone can hold love without self sabotaging it.
Not everyone can hold peace without creating chaos.
Not everyone can hold success without punishing themselves.
And this is where women underestimate this work.
They think the “small things” aren’t important.
Their relationships.
Their wellbeing.
Their parenting.
Their self-respect.
Their emotional regulation.
Their capacity to receive.
Their ability to rest without guilt.
But these “small things” are the very things that build UNLIMITED riches.
Because if you can become SOLID in your body…
you can become SOLID in your life.
And when you’re solid…
You don’t sabotage.
You don’t burn it down.
You don’t blow the money.
You don’t wreck the relationship.
You don’t BINGE eat.
You can finally RECEIVE what you desire…
Food freedom.
Your hunger without shame.
Your health without sacrifice.
A body you LOVE living inside.
A loving relationship.
Calm, confident motherhood.
Wealth.
And purpose.
And KEEP it ALL.
That’s the walk.
Every step counts.
Especially the ones you’ve been trying to avoid because you think they “don’t matter”.
Those steps are the FOUNDATION.
That is the Binge to Billions journey.
Not chasing.
Not proving.
Not performing.
BECOMING.

🧟‍♀️If binge eating feels automatic.
If it feels robotic.
If it feels like something takes over and you’re no longer in control.
This video is for you.
Most recovery advice tries to stop the binge.
Suppress the urge.
Control the behaviour.
Fight the food.
But what if binge eating isn’t a lack of willpower.
And it isn’t a loss of control.
What if it’s autopilot.
In this transmission, I share a rewiring technique that interrupts binge eating at the identity level — not by stopping it, but by waking you up inside it.
You’ll hear why saying one sentence out loud can shift you from unconscious bingeing into conscious choice.
Why this immediately starts returning power to your nervous system.
And why this approach threatens mainstream recovery models that rely on control instead of awareness.
This is not about being perfect.
It’s not about never bingeing again.
It’s about breaking the automatic loop — and training your system back into CHOICE.
If you’ve ever felt like binge eating “just happens”.
This will land differently.

🤢I forced myself to overeat.
Not accidentally.
Not mindlessly.
Consciously.
And here’s what surprised me.
Nothing happened.
No guilt.
No punishment.
No compensating.
No spiral.
For years, I believed overeating was the problem.
That if I could just stop at the right moment.
Eat the right amount.
Follow the right rules.
I’d finally feel free.
But freedom didn’t come from controlling food.
It came from ending the war after eating.
In this video, I break down why overeating isn’t what keeps you stuck.
Why compensating, fixing, restricting, and “being good tomorrow” quietly hands your power away.
And how taking responsibility — without shame — changes your relationship with food at a subconscious level.
This isn’t about mindful eating rules.
Or stopping when you’re full.
Or doing it “right”.
It’s about authority over your body.
And the moment the story ends — because you decide it does.
If you’ve ever overeaten and then punished yourself for it.
Planned the fix.
Promised tomorrow would be different.
This will land deeply.

😵‍💫For over two decades, I couldn’t relax around food or my body.
Not because I wasn’t trying hard enough.
Not because I didn’t have willpower.
But because I didn’t even know what the real problem was.
This is what happens when something feels “manageable”.
When it’s not extreme enough to force change.
When dieting works… just enough… to keep you stuck.
I thought food was the issue.
I thought control was the issue.
I thought my business pressure was the issue.
I was wrong.
In this video, I explain:
• Why the subconscious mind keeps running old programs
• How binge–diet cycles are created perfectly — not accidentally
• Why awareness, not discipline, is what breaks the loop
• How unresolved patterns leak into relationships, money, health, and identity
• And why hunger, urges, and emotional reactions are not failures — they are signals
This isn’t about fixing yourself.
It’s about finally seeing what’s been running the show.

🗣️Your subconscious mind is already communicating with you — through your body, your emotions, and the moments when something suddenly shifts without effort.
In this video, I explain how the subconscious actually works, why you don’t need to consciously “find the root cause” to heal, and how real change often happens quietly, without force or willpower.
We explore the physical and emotional signs your subconscious uses to release old patterns, including:
• yawning
• sighing
• itching
• emotional release
• sudden calm or clarity
These are not random reactions. They are signals that something is resolving beneath the surface.
If you’ve ever felt like you understand everything intellectually but still feel stuck, this will help you recognise what’s already unfolding — and how to listen instead of trying harder.

🙈For years, every New Year felt like permission to erase the past.
To say “here’s to a fresh start” and quietly discard the year that didn’t go to plan.
If my year was hard.
If the results didn’t match my expectations.
If life felt slower than I wanted — I would write the year off and rush toward the next one.
What I couldn’t see back then was this:
Everything that means anything in my life now was built on those very years.
Even the messy ones.
ESPECIALLY the ones I wanted to forget.
I was dismissing entire years because of a handful of problems — and then wondered why I never felt successful, why I never felt enough, why real joy always seemed just out of reach.
This year, I chose something different.
Instead of erasing 2025, I sat down and recorded everything that was good. Even when it didn’t look like the goals I thought I wanted. Even when it felt SMALL.
And something unexpected happened.
As I wrote the list below, I realised just how frickin lucky I am!
Not lucky in a random way — lucky because I’ve been aligning, choosing, and showing up long before I realised I was actually manifesting my desires!
So much of what I’ve been chasing… I’ve already been calling in without even realising it.
After writing this list, I could finally see my life clearly.
How much progress I’ve made.
How much has been working for me all along.
For the first time, I can feel the success, the enoughness, and the joy I spent years reaching for.
I’m deeply grateful to one of my favourite mentors, , for encouraging this reflection.
I wish I had started this sooner — and I know I’ll never end another year the same way again.
After making this list, I can finally see why I wasn’t behind. I was MANIFESTING before I even knew that’s what I was doing.
So if you were thinking of rushing too quickly and forgetting 2025, try this — I promise you, it’ll be worth it!

😱 I WAS FIRED!!!

Who would’ve thought this ONE act would get me FIRED.
Escorted out of the building.
Like a criminal.
Shamed.
Humiliated.
What I didn’t know then…
was that life had just forced a fork I would never have chosen.
Not punishment.
PRECISION.
The intelligence of life moving me toward the making of the TRUE me.
The woman who would one day lead Binge to Billions™.
My legacy.
At the time, it felt unjust.
Confusing.
Like something had gone terribly wrong.
But there is an intelligence far greater than our fear-based mind.
An intelligence more expanded than what we can comprehend.
And it doesn’t respond to what we THINK we want.
It responds to what we are READY to become.
If it were up to us,
we would stay safe.
Stay small.
Stay where we’re approved.
But often,
when it feels like life is turning on us…
it’s actually turning us ON.
This is where abundance really begins.
Not when you “have it”.
But when you FEEL it.
When you trust it.
When you embody it.
Because like attracts like.
And you don’t get the dream by chasing it.
You get it by becoming the woman who already lives it.
NOW.
Everything is connected.
Everything is timed.
Everything is FOR you.
And the irony?
The more you stop fighting the waves…
the faster you reach the island.
You were never without ground.
You just hadn’t felt your feet yet.

Most of what we call “personality”
is actually practice we didn’t realise we were doing.
Anger.
Calm.
Reactivity.
Peace.
The mind doesn’t judge the emotion.
It trains whatever is repeated.
I shared a very real example of this in today’s video — not to shame, but to show how powerful (and neutral) the mind actually is.
If you’ve ever thought
“This is just who I am”
“I’m not sporty”
“I can’t cook”
“I don’t have the patience” etc.
…this might change how you see yourself.
