Guide for the woman ready to come home to herself.
With over 20 years of experience in emotional wellness, Jane McMiller has supported hundreds of women in breaking free from emotional eating—not through diets or discipline, but through deep, lasting healing.
From her home in the serene landscapes of New Zealand, Jane blends clinical training with lived experience to deliver a refreshing, real-world approach to transformation.
Her debut book, "The Somatic Solution: The 9 Key Steps for Emotional Eating Recovery to Find Peace with Food" offers a compassionate roadmap for women who are ready to stop the war with food and finally trust themselves again.
Eat to Feel Satisfied.
What's involved?
In the Satiety Blueprint, from my book The Somatic Solution, eating to feel satisfied goes beyond simply feeling comfortably full. It involves a mindful approach to eating that promotes a positive and sustainable relationship with food. While fullness signals the end of physical hunger, true satisfaction involves understanding and honoring your body's unique needs. It means acknowledging and fulfilling your body's nutritional needs, as well as enjoying the sensory experience of eating and feeling emotionally content afterwards.
Alongside my book, I've developed a Food Harmony Questionnaire that serves as a tool for self-awareness and understanding.

ABOUT JANE
Helping you break free from emotional eating - by coming home to your body, your truth, and your power.
You look like you’ve got it together. A steady career. A beautiful family. Maybe you even eat “healthy” most days.
But when no one’s watching, food feels like your secret struggle.
You swing between control and chaos—white-knuckling through another “clean eating” streak, then collapsing into a binge. The shame hits hard. The self-judgment is louder. And deep down, you’re asking:
“What’s wrong with me?”
I’ve been there.
I’m Jane—and I help women like you heal emotional eating from the inside out. No shame. No rules. Just deep, lasting freedom built on compassion, somatic wisdom, and subconscious healing.
When My Wake-Up Call Came
It was just another binge. A whole bag of chocolates. That familiar wave of hopelessness, disgust, and confusion. I picked up the phone, sobbing.
But my best friend’s voice was shaking—he’d just witnessed a fatal accident.
In that moment, something cracked open. My spiral collided with mortality. I knew I couldn’t keep doing this. I needed real healing.
The Hidden Struggle (even as a trainer)
At the time, I was a personal trainer and weight management coach. On paper, I had it all together. But behind closed doors, I was locked in the same all-or-nothing eating patterns as my clients.
They hit the same wall I did. Diets worked—until they didn’t. Progress dissolved into self-sabotage.
I knew it wasn’t about willpower. Something deeper was going on.
What Changed Everything
I began studying psychotherapy. That’s where I discovered the concept of subpersonalities—the inner parts of us that pull in different directions.
Most emotional eaters carry two dominant parts:
-
The "All" Part: a perfectionist with rigid rules.
-
The "Nothing" Part: the rebel who wants comfort, freedom, escape.
These parts battle endlessly. Until you learn to disidentify from them and anchor into something deeper.
The Inner War: "All" vs. "Nothing"
Through my training in parts work, I learned to step out of these parts and into the role of the compassionate observer—the Self. The one who can listen without getting hijacked.
That’s when real change began.
From Fragmented to Free.
I hold a degree in Psychotherapy and have trained in hypnotherapy, somatic embodiment, holistic coaching, and parts work. But what qualifies me most is living this journey.
I’ve walked the spiral. I know the shame, the starts and stops, the silent war.
And I know how it feels to come home to yourself—for real.
Since then, I’ve integrated a wide range of powerful methods - somatic healing, breathwork, visualization, self-compassion practices, belief reprogramming, mindfulness, and more.
Why This Work Is Different
What I teach is not another mindset hack. It’s a trauma-informed, integrative approach I call Embodied Synthesis.
It blends:
-
Somatic healing
-
Parts work
-
Breathwork
-
Subconscious rewiring
-
Self-compassion
-
Nervous system regulation
Together, these tools help you feel safe in your body, shift the patterns that drive emotional eating, and finally trust yourself again.
What I believe...
-
Emotional eating isn’t a willpower issue - it’s a reflection of your relationship with food, with your body, and with yourself.
-
You can’t hate yourself into healing. But you can come home to yourself with compassion.
-
Food isn’t “good” or “bad.” Most of what we believe about food is shaped by marketing and culture - not truth.
-
Healing isn’t just about what you eat - it’s about how you relate to yourself in every area of your life.
-
You don’t need another set of rules. You need tools to reconnect with your own wisdom - your north star.
-
Your body isn’t the enemy. It’s a messenger.
This work is for you if...
-
You’re tired of feeling out of control around food - and even more tired of hating yourself for it.
-
You’ve tried every diet, every “mindset hack,” every healthy eating plan… and nothing sticks.
-
You want lasting change, not another quick fix.
-
You’re ready to understand why you do what you do - and heal the root cause.
-
You long to feel safe, seen, and worthy - without needing to look or eat a certain way.
This work is not for you if...
-
You’re looking for yet another diet.
-
You want a strict plan or rapid weight loss.
-
You’re looking for rules, not root causes.
(As a former bodybuilder, I know how to lose body fat fast—and how much it can damage your soul. That’s not what I offer.)
What I want you to know...
You’re not broken. You’re not alone. You're not beyond help. And there is a way forward that doesn’t involve restriction, shame, or willpower.
Your struggle with food isn’t the problem. It’s the invitation.
To slow down. To listen inward. To reconnect.
This is about healing your relationship with food—and with yourself.
Not from a place of shame, but from self-leadership.
Not to get it "perfect," but to finally feel free.
Let it start with one gentle shift:
Stop fighting yourself. Start listening.
You’re not here to be fixed. You’re here to be free.
And I’m here to walk that path with you.
Let’s take the next step together
If you’re ready to break free from the all-or-nothing cycle, explore what’s really driving your eating patterns, and reclaim your power from the inside out, I’d love to support you.
