FROM EMOTIONAL EATING
ABOUT JANE
Growing up, I was the overweight kid who already felt self-conscious.
At primary school, the headmaster called my friend and me “the two fatties”, and it wasn’t just once. Each time confirmed what I already feared: it wasn’t just in my head. Other people could see it too. And that became who I was.
From 13 years old, food became the one thing I could control in a chaotic home. I restricted food and became over-focused on my weight. When I was made to eat again, it tipped the other way fast, and for years I swung between restricting, overeating and bingeing, using exercise to try to balance it all out.
The Hidden Struggle
On the surface, as an adult, I looked like I had it all figured out. Underneath, I was in an ongoing battle with myself. Now that I’m out of that internal war, the only way I can describe it is like being imprisoned, without a key to get out.
I knew it wasn’t about willpower, something deeper was going on.
What Changed Everything
My first step out came while training as a holistic health coach. I noticed the standard dietary advice left me unsatisfied and still hungry. Eating low fat was a disaster for my body (yet it suited my mum perfectly).
So I started where I should have started all along: listening to my own body.
At 29, while I as training in psychotherapy, I discovered parts work.
It fit the all-or-nothing patterns of emotional eating perfectly, so I tried it on myself, and it worked!
I learned to step back from the parts running the show and find the steady Self underneath, where real choice lives. I used it to work on my younger parts, to become more compassionate with myself, and this process also lead me to forgive my parents. I moved from victim to gratitude.
Somatic training was the final piece of the puzzle for me: reaching the place where words can’t go.
Everything I stumbled across over a lifetime is now in one place, so you don’t have to spend decades finding it.
That’s why I wrote the book, and it's my pleasure to be able to share it with you.
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.
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—but also how much it can damage your soul. That’s not what I offer.)
WHAT I WANT YOU TO KNOW...
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.
