EP.325: The Parallel Struggles Between Food, Body, & Money

Mindset, Money Mindset, Podcast

Have you ever noticed the similarities between your relationship with food& body and your relationship with money? In this episode, I dive deep into how struggles with body image and eating habits often mirror financial struggles, especially among dietitians. Drawing on my own experience and the patterns I’ve seen working with clients, we’ll explore how mindset blocks around food often show up in your money habits—and how healing one can help you heal the other.

Dietitians are particularly vulnerable to these struggles. Many of us became a dietitian to heal our own relationship with food & body. And many of us also feel guilty about making money. As we unpack the psychological ties between food, body, and money, you’ll begin to see how a scarcity mindset in one area can spill into the other parts of your life.

If you’re an RD who has ever struggled with your relationship with food & body, and you’re currently struggling with achieving your fullest earning potential, this episode is for you. I’ll share practical strategies to break the cycle of scarcity, move towards abundance, and realign your mindset for healthier habits so you can finally make more money as a dietitian.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:

  • How emotional eating and emotional spending are closely connected.
  • The impact of body image on your financial worth and career decisions.
  • Why a scarcity mindset with food often leads to similar struggles with money.
  • Common challenges dietitians face with underearning and undercharging for their services.
  • Practical strategies for shifting from control and restriction to empowerment and abundance.
  • How to use mindful eating and mindful spending to create healthier habits.

Tune in to discover how recognizing the parallels between your relationship with food, your body, and money can be a powerful first step toward change. By becoming aware of these patterns, you can start making empowered choices that nourish both your physical and financial well-being. Whether you’re a dietitian struggling with undercharging or someone dealing with food and money stress, the strategies we discussed in this episode will help you move from a place of scarcity to one of abundance—both in life and in business.
