Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and completely transform how you show up every single day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today.

Okay, real talk—have you ever noticed how the more you try to “be good” with food, the more you end up thinking about it nonstop? In this episode, I’m diving into why restriction often backfires and how mindful eating can actually help you feel way more at peace with food (and yourself).

If you’ve ever felt stuck in that loop of cravings, guilt, and starting over every Monday... this one’s for you.

Here’s what we get into:

04:37 – What mindful eating actually looks like in real life—and how to start doing it without overthinking.
07:50 – Can you really have food freedom and still reach your health and fitness goals? Let’s talk about it.
12:10 – The sneaky connection between inflammation, cravings, and why you feel “out of control” sometimes.
14:47 – Super simple things you can do today to eat more mindfully and quiet the food noise in your head.

Let’s get into it—this one’s a game-changer.

Key Takeaway:

"Oftentimes, cravings are seen as bad or something to be avoided, but they're simply your body's way of communicating its needs." - Jill Allen

"You could absolutely have both food freedom and health goals. They don’t cancel each other out. But that doesn't mean eating whatever you want, whenever you want. It means eating in a way that’s best for your body to function at its highest level." - Jill Allen
