463-Performative Eating
Performative eating is when you choose food based on how others perceive you — not hunger or satisfaction. Learn what drives it and how to stop.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- What performative eating actually is and how to recognize it in your daily life
- Why overriding your body's signals to "perform" health is the root of disordered eating
- How conditional self-esteem fuels food choices based on others' opinions
- Why this pattern shows up differently across body size, culture, and identity
- What health professionals must do first before coaching anyone on eating behavior
