Do you use food as a treat or find yourself struggling with the temptation of holiday sweets? Many of us see food as a reward, especially during holidays like Halloween, where treats are abundant. Have you ever asked yourself if there’s a healthier, more fulfilling way to handle these temptations? In this episode of the Quilters Coach Podcast, we’ll talk about navigating holiday temptations and exploring the stories we tell ourselves around food. I’ll guide you through shifting your mindset from seeing food as a treat to finding more lasting, internal satisfaction.

In this episode, I share how we unconsciously reward ourselves with food and what we can do to break this cycle. By understanding our relationships with food—whether it’s for comfort, joy, or escape—you’ll gain a clearer perspective on how to make healthier choices without feeling deprived. I also share a story about my personal journey in creating a healthier relationship with food during Halloween and how you can embrace that shift, too. Plus, we’ll look at how the environment and the stories we tell ourselves play a role in shaping our food habits.
