Episode 54: Dr. Kim Daniels

What an absolute joy it was to interview Dr. Kim Daniels! She is an Emotional Eating Coach with a doctorate in Clinical Psychology who uses Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Intuitive Eating approaches to help women who struggle with emotional eating, binge eating, and negative body image. She is also producer and host of The Emotional Eating (and Everything Else) Podcast. In this episode, Kim shares about going through menopause, experiencing changes in her body, staying curious with her “parts,” and how reconnecting with movement in a more powerful way deeply enlivens her. She talks about how she began her career supporting women around weight loss and quickly experienced inner resistance to this, which eventually led her to create her own business, where she guides women to greater awareness, helps them learn to sit with emotions and truly feel them, and offers intuitive eating strategies, supporting them to tune into their body in a more compassionate, loving way. Other topics we discuss include: diet culture and messaging, how to build trust in oneself and their body (perhaps for the first time ever), different messages she received about her body as a young girl, the power of slowing down and the importance of pleasure. Kim is super knowledgeable, funny, genuine, and empowering. Enjoy listening to this episode and experiencing her energy and wisdom.
