Mastering Willpower: Insights from Dr. Glenn Livingston on Food Addiction

I think that there's a lot of spiritual development and self-reflection, and socialization and responsibility-taking and things like that.
Imagine battling cravings and winning every time. That's the promise in this episode of 'Sober on Purpose', where Jerry and Tanya Gioia sit down with Dr. Glenn Livingston, the mind behind the Never Binge Again program. Dr. Livingston, a clinical psychologist, shares his journey of overcoming food addiction and how his program has helped many others do the same. He dives into the science behind our impulses, explaining the roles of the Reptilian and Mammalian brains in our eating habits.
Ever heard of the Inner Pig? Dr. Livingston uses this concept to illustrate how our primal instincts can lead us astray and offers practical tips on how to regain control. This episode isn't just about food; it's about understanding your mind and harnessing your willpower to achieve your goals. Whether you're struggling with food addiction or looking to strengthen your self-control in other areas, this conversation is packed with insights that could change your life.
