Breaking Free from Emotional Eating: Lessons from Renée Jones’ 40-Year Journey

Have you ever found yourself reaching for food, not because you’re hungry, but because you’re stressed, lonely, or bored? That’s emotional eating — and it’s a trap many of us know too well.

In this week’s episode of Mirror Talk: Soulful Conversations, I had the privilege of speaking with Renée Jones — counselor, TEDx speaker, and author of What’s Really Eating You. After 40 years of yo-yo dieting, Renée finally broke free of emotional eating in 2012, and she now helps others do the same.

We explored:

Why diets fail: It’s not about willpower — it’s about addressing the root cause.
The role of self-worth: Healing your self-image is essential to lasting change.
Managing cravings: From snack-filled homes to buffets, there are strategies to stay strong.
Lasting transformation: It’s about getting the “HANG” of it — Healthy mindset, Awareness, New strategies, and Growth.

Renée reminds us that food is meant to nourish, not numb. When we heal what’s really eating us, we no longer need to use food as a coping tool.

👉 Listen to the full conversation on your favourite podcast platform and learn how to break free from emotional eating, reclaim your self-worth, and find lasting freedom.
