OUTWEIGH: Amy and Leanne are back for Part 4 of Binge-Free Brain where they explore the mind-blowing connection between emotional and physical pain. Did you know a key area of your brain, the ACC, houses a large number of receptors for both? This means emotional hurt can literally feel like physical pain, which can trigger us to seek comfort in food. We'll delve deeper into the concept of "sensory mismatch" and how it relates to fibromyalgia and other conditions. This episode will unveil the surprising reasons why emotional distress might manifest as cravings, helping you develop more effective coping mechanisms for lasting change.

Feeling Things with Amy & Kat is a podcast for anyone who’s ever had feelings—or wants to. Hosted by Amy Brown and therapist Kat Van Buren, this is a space where nothing is off-limits. From deep reflections on childhood to pop culture obsessions to what’s happening in the world, all feelings deserve a seat at the table—big, small, awkward, joyful, confusing, and everything in between. At its core, it’s real friends having real conversations about real feelings. Some episodes go deep, some stay light, but all are rooted in curiosity, honesty, and connection. In a world that moves fast, sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause... and feel things.

Welcome back for Part 6 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the game plan for success—how to carve out your own winning strategy, while also addressing a crucial piece of the puzzle: earning back your own trust. 

You see, even if you had the perfect plan and the most ideal steps laid out, what good would it do if you couldn’t trust yourself to follow through? That’s why we dive deep into earning back your own trust so you can live in alignment and integrity WHILE you go after your health goals.  

We often think the alternative to dieting is losing control, but the true alternative is freedom—freedom to nourish your body and soul, to wave the white flag, and declare peace. This episode is about shifting from the mindset of restriction and "repair" to one of  healing and "care". We’ll explore how to truly partner with your body and align your mind and heart to create a sustainable, peaceful life. We’ll also tackle those sneaky “Never-Gonna” inner voices that sabotage your success before you even begin. Together, we’ll reframe your approach so that you can build self-trust, stop the self-sabotage, and finally play a game that’s designed for you to win.

What's God Got To Do With It? The Ultimate Health Strategy Fusing Faith and Science

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/a2376667-4e88-42d1-ab1d-b3dd016a11db/transcript

Welcome back for Part 5 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts.

This week we’re diving deep into a crucial part of the food and body image conversation—what Leanne likes to call your “body brain.”

If you’ve been following along, you know we’ve been exploring how faith intersects with our struggles around food and self image. Today, we’re turning our focus to the physical side of things, and how your body (and your perception of it) are deeply intertwined. 

We’ll be looking at this from both a nervous system and physiological perspective, but we can’t ignore the importance of how you view your body and your relationship with it.
This episode isn’t about offering a quick fix; it’s about helping you understand the deeper layers that contribute to your struggles.

Leanne also shares her personal journey of overcoming her own body image (and chronic pain) battles, so you can see that real, lasting change is possible...but it starts with breaking the chains of your own harsh self-criticism, guilt, and shame.

The hope is that by the end of this episode, you’ll feel empowered to start dismantling your own beliefs and step into a new story about your body. Remember, this isn’t just about what you weigh or how you look—it’s about freeing yourself from the heavy burden of judgment and stepping into a place of peace and self-compassion.

Welcome back for Part 4 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts.

If you’ve been struggling with disordered eating patterns, restrictive diets, or feeling chained to unhealthy eating habits, this conversation is for you. We talk about how inviting God into your journey can help break those chains, allowing you to step into a new identity rooted in peace, love, and TRUE freedom.

We explore the concept of the "food brain" and how it’s wired to seek comfort and connection through unhealthy coping mechanisms like overeating, mindless scrolling, or other habits that distract from what your soul truly needs. 

This episode isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level solutions; it's about understanding the root of your struggles and learning to meet them with compassion, solution-focused care, and faith.
If you’re ready to shift your focus from fighting with your body to truly healing your relationship with food, this conversation will guide you toward that transformation, with God right by your side.
