About Rise and Align With Food
Rise and Align With Food is a practical recovery show for people trying to change binge eating, emotional eating, and the exhausting cycle around cravings. It is not framed as a pure diet show. The recurring promise is broader: a calmer relationship with food, a body that feels less like a battleground, and weight loss that does not rely on obsession or extremes. The style is conversational, prepared, and coaching-focused. Lessons often begin with a specific struggle, such as motivation dropping off, holidays triggering overeating, or a craving feeling too strong to resist. From there, the show turns toward implementation. Episodes use the 90 Second Craving Reset Challenge to teach small, repeatable tools for retraining the brain around cravings. The language leans heavily on values, self-trust, freedom, health, balance, and true self-care. There is also a strong anti-shame thread. Listeners hear prompts about identifying personal eating values, noticing beliefs that work against those values, and refusing to censor the truth about what they want. That gives the show a more reflective texture than standard weight loss advice. It asks what food represents, not just what food contains. Motivation is treated with similar nuance. Rather than casting low motivation as failure, the show presents it as a predictable wave that can still be worked with. Holiday episodes bring the same framework into emotionally loaded situations, especially moments when someone wants to enjoy food without triggering a binge. Personal experience is also used as proof of concept, including a decades-long battle with binge eating and losing over 50 pounds. The tone is encouraging without being glossy. It can feel intimate and slightly informal, with acknowledgments of notes, preparation, and real-life background details. At its best, Rise and Align With Food turns recovery concepts into manageable mental reps. It suits listeners who want structure, compassion, and food freedom without another all-or-nothing reset.
Made for: This show is for people dealing with binge eating, emotional eating, cravings, and long-running weight loss frustration. It especially suits listeners who want coaching-style structure without harsh restriction.
What sets it apart: Rise and Align With Food combines lived experience with concrete exercises, including craving resets, values prompts, and motivation reframes. Its emphasis is less on food rules and more on retraining the patterns that make food feel controlling.
In their own words
Reshanda Yates discusses how to stop binge eating so you can lose weight, have energy, focus, and be present for your family and children. Learn why you binge and how to stop bingeing on sweets and carbs. Move from information to implementation and past the frustration of knowing what to do but never being able to do it. Be able to trust yourself alone with all the sweet treats and not dig into the kitchen when no one else is around. In this podcast, Reshanda shares her own stories of struggling with binge eating for 10 years. She knows first-hand what it’s like to promise again and again that this will be the last time, only to wake up the next morning and repeat the same cycle. She underst…
