Join host Dr. Pinkston and special guest, psychologist Tori Janae, for a powerful and transparent conversation on how past trauma and Relationships shape our destructive connections with food. Dr. Pinkston, who once struggled with her own eating disorder and obesity, and Tori Janae, who shares her personal journey of healing generational trauma through addressing food addiction, dive deep into the emotional and psychological roots of disordered eating.
Discover why food becomes a source of comfort, the role of dopamine in the “eat, repent, repeat” addiction cycle, and why so many people struggle with guilt, shame, and self-sabotage. Learn practical, free tools rooted in an integrative approach to start your healing journey, including:
Identifying the core psychological wounds (e.g., abandonment, guilt, people-pleasing) that drive addictive behaviors.
The importance of self-awareness and how to use your triggers as teachers.
Techniques to “finish the Stress cycle” and down-regulate your nervous system using movement and Box Breathing (physiological sigh).
The power of neuroplasticity and mind-body techniques like EFT Tapping to rewire your brain for safety and self-acceptance.
This episode offers profound insights and actionable steps to break free from the cycle of emotional eating and move toward The Better Life.
