Why is it so hard to change our patterns—especially when it comes to food and movement?
In this episode of Carissa Explains It All, we’re diving deep into the concept of habit loops and the often uncomfortable—but transformative—moment when we become aware of them. Whether it’s late-night overeating or skipping the gym, these automatic behaviors are more than just bad habits—they’re ingrained patterns driven by emotion, stress, and unmet needs.
We discuss:
- What “habit energy” is and why it keeps you stuck
- How to recognize the moment of choice in your behavior loop
- Why discomfort is a necessary part of growth
- Real-life examples around emotional eating and exercise avoidance
- Tools to help you pause, reflect, and choose differently—without shame
This episode is for the high-achieving, self-aware humans who are ready to do the real inner work so they can build sustainable health habits that support both their goals and their emotional well-being.
