How Do Busy Women Get Past Cravings, Stress Eating, and Perfectionism? How to Raise Your Standards

Jennifer Peeke | Certified Women's Nutrition Coach | Expert in Weight Loss and Mindset Season 1 Episode 26

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your health goals or frustrated by starting strong and then losing motivation, this episode is for you.

Here’s the truth: goals sound great, but they’re often temporary. They can actually feed cycles of self-sabotage, perfectionism, and stress eating—leaving you stuck in patterns of overeating, binge eating, and cravings.

That’s why today we’re talking about something even more powerful than goals: standards.

Standards shift your identity, strengthen your mindset, and give you a framework you can live by every day—so you can create a healthy lifestyle that actually lasts. This approach reduces binge eating symptoms, helps with stress relief, and allows you to feel like a strong woman who is finally in control of her choices.

In this episode,  you will learn:

  • Why chasing goals alone often leads to overeating, stress eating, and the “start-over Monday” cycle.

  • How standards anchor your daily choices, even when motivation fades.

  • The role of mindset theory and mindset over matter in breaking free from disordered eating and improving body image.

  • Practical ways to set standards that reduce cravings, help you overcome a binge eating problem, and make progress you can actually sustain.

  • Real examples of shifting from “I want to lose weight” to identity-based standards that build confidence and create a truly healthy lifestyle.
