Episode 178: Are You in a Narcissistic Relationship with Food?
Jul 25, 2025
What if I told you that the patterns many women experience with men… I’m talking about the guys who make you question your worth… these are the same patterns that show up in your relationship with food? Today, we’re going beyond the clinical and looking at patterns of behavior between toxic and narcissistic men and food. And there’s a lot more similarities than you realize.
Together, we will unpack:
- Why toxic relationship patterns with men often mirror emotional eating patterns with food.
- The surprising connection between narcissistic traits and food guilt, shame, and binge cycles.
- The 7 narcissistic traits that might be sabotaging your relationship with food, without you realizing it.
- How love bombing and ghosting show up on your plate (yes, really).
- The manipulation tactics we accept from food that we’d never tolerate from a man.
- Why drama and chaos tie back to your overeating habits.
- What you can do right now to break these patterns and rebuild a healthy relationship with food.
