Finding Freedom From Emotional Eating & Food Disorders with Amber Romaniuk l Unpacking and Healing What Lies Underneath Our Hunger for Ultimate Body Freedom
In this episode, we sit down with Amber Romaniuk for a deep dive into the numerous root causes of emotional eating. She discusses how the food industry has shaped our behaviors by promoting highly processed, dopamine-driven foods that hijack our brain’s reward pathways and keep us stuck in cycles of craving, guilt, and restriction. Amber highlights the role of dopamine in these patterns, showing how food becomes a quick emotional fix and how disrupted hormones, gut health, and blood-sugar balance can intensify cravings. She offers practical steps for healing, including building awareness around emotional vs. physical hunger, stabilizing blood sugar with nourishing foods, supporting digestion and hormones, and cultivating safety and self-trust instead of restriction or shame. Addressing food addiction, she emphasizes compassion, mindset work, and non-food coping tools to break binge-and-restrict loops. She also shares her insights into the use of GLP-1 medications, as well as more information about her Body Freedom Program, which helps women release diet culture, heal their relationship with food, balance hormones and digestion, and create lasting “body safety” through mindset shifts, nutrition, and emotional healing—all aimed at achieving freedom from food obsession and reconnecting with the body’s innate wisdom.Amber Romaniuk is an Emotional Eating, Digestive and Hormone Expert, with 12 years experience helping high achieving women create a level of body confidence, intuition and optimal health through powerful mindset healing, self-care and overcoming self-sabotage with food.She does this through addressing the key negative thoughts, patterns and limiting beliefs that keep women stuck in the same behaviors for years and decades, that they haven’t been able to break.Her podcast “The No Sugarcoating Podcast” has 2+ million downloads, over 600 episodes and is listened to in over 90 countries.Amber overcame her own emotional eating after gaining and losing more than 1000 lbs and spending over $50,000 on binge foods, and spending 5 years balancing her hormones and digestion.
