Stop the Guilt, Eat the Dessert: Healing Your Relationship With Food | Madinat Mom Podcast

Do you find yourself restricting all day… only to binge at night?
Hiding food? Feeling guilty after every "treat"?

You're not lacking discipline—you're stuck in a cycle.

In this episode of the Madinat Mom Podcast, I sit down with Maitha, certified holistic nutritionist, intuitive eating coach, and founder of Maitha & Treats. After struggling with binge eating disorder for over 10 years, she transformed her relationship with food—and now helps other women do the same.

This conversation will change the way you think about food, control, and what "healthy" actually means—especially as a mom.

In this episode, we cover:

• What binge eating disorder really looks like (and why it's often misunderstood)

• How "clean eating" can quietly turn into restriction

• The real reason behind the restrict–binge–guilt cycle

• How to rebuild trust with your body through intuitive eating

• Why nourishment matters more than control—especially in motherhood

• How Maitha built a dessert brand that challenges diet culture

If you've ever:

• Felt out of control around food

• Promised yourself "I'll start again tomorrow"

• Experienced guilt after eating something "bad"

• Struggled to prioritize your own nourishment as a mom

This episode is for you.

You don't need more rules.
You need a new relationship with food.

Why Your Child Explodes: Understanding Deeply Feeling Kids | Madinat Mom Podcast

Does your child go from calm to meltdown in seconds?
Do their emotions feel intense, overwhelming, and impossible to manage?

You're not alone—and you're not failing.

In this episode of the Madinat Mom Podcast, we unpack what's really happening beneath your child's big emotions with Coach Ela, a conscious parenting expert with 20+ years in Montessori education and child behavior.

If you've ever wondered:

• "Why is my child so sensitive?"

• "Why do they say 'I hate you' during meltdowns?"

• "Why does nothing seem to calm them down?"

This conversation will completely shift how you see your child—and yourself as a parent.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• What deeply feeling kids are and how to recognize one

• The real meaning behind "I hate you" and emotional outbursts

• The #1 mistake parents make that escalates meltdowns

• Why distraction and logic don't work with intense kids

• Practical ways to stay calm when your child is overwhelmed

• How to teach emotional regulation the same way we teach physical skills

This episode is for every mom who has:

• Lost her patience and felt guilty after

• Sat in the car crying after a tough moment

• Googled "why is my child so intense" late at night

You're not raising a "difficult" child.
You're raising a deeply feeling one—and that changes everything.

Are you reaching for snacks at midnight — not because you're hungry, but because you're exhausted, overwhelmed, or desperate for a moment to yourself?

In this episode, I sit down with Nour Al Jawhari, certified health coach and mom of two, for an honest conversation about emotional eating, motherhood, self-worth, and the guilt so many moms carry around food.

We talk about why moms eat in survival mode, hide snacks, binge after restricting, and feel ashamed after every "treat" — and why it has nothing to do with willpower.

In this episode, we cover:
✨ Emotional hunger vs. physical hunger
✨ Why your relationship with food reflects your relationship with yourself
✨ The hidden emotional needs behind sugar cravings
✨ How body rhythm journaling can reveal your eating patterns
✨ Mom guilt, self-compassion, and healing your inner child
✨ The "Queen vs. Princess" mindset shift that changes everything
✨ Nour's FREE Emotional Toolkit created for Madinat Mom listeners

Whether you're postpartum, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or simply tired of feeling guilty every time you eat, this episode will help you feel seen, understood, and less alone.
