I WANT YOU TO…
Nourish yourself confidently and calmly without self-doubt and judgment.
Know your body is worthy and good, even if it doesn’t look like you’ve been told it should.
Radically reconnect with yourself and let go of the oppressive struggle to do it all perfectly.
Stop feeling like you are the problem, that your food issues can’t be fixed.
No matter what you’ve been told
Your body is not the enemy.
Willpower is not the problem.
A FOOD MORALIZING CULTURE
Diet culture and weight-centered care in women’s health leave many of us confused, scared, and doubt that we can trust ourselves with our own appetites.
Healing your relationship with food allows you to make choices that support your physical, mental, and emotional health and boldly claim your needs.
THE THIN IDEAL
We all get the message that attaining thinness is possible if we just try hard enough. We’ll be happy and all things will fall into place. But in reality, this makes us miserable, keeps us from living life, and locks us into shame and comparison.
Unpacking how this affects the way you talk to and treat yourself is incredibly revealing and freeing. And allows you to take care of your here-and-now body.
PATRIARCHY IN HEALTHCARE
There are countless ways in which gender bias keeps women+ from trusting the messages their body gives them. If you’ve been told to lose weight instead of treated for a health condition, I want you to know there is a better way.
What You’ll Experience With Us
Unlearn Food Nonsense
Food rules, diet dogma, and miracle cure rhetoric cause confusion, overwhelm, and indecision. We’ll peel those back and give you a system so you can make smart choices for your body’s needs.
Stop People Pleasing and Self Doubting
Dysfunctional eating habits and self-doubt around your body can leave you trusting others over your own experience. You’ll get honest with yourself about your perfectionist habits and explore what your body and mind need. Then, you can find ways to build the strength, boundaries, and more joy.
Attune to Your Body's Needs
Chances are good that if you’ve been dieting your whole life, you aren’t quite sure what and how much food your body actually wants. You’ll gain space to pause, tune in, and notice what your body is telling you with less judgment and more wonder and curiosity.
Learn Practical Food Skills
No more food rightousness. You’ll learn skills to respond to your body’s cues, as well as tools to cook, shop, and prepare foods that are good for you, your life, your family, and your body.
That’s what we’ll work on together.
Virtual Intuitive Eating Coaching
When you join the Love Food Again program, you get access to all the tools, support, and accountability you need to change your life. This program is right for those ready to LIBERATE themselves and heal from body and food negativity – who want to love food again.
“Human beings need food and movement to survive. Diet culture steals food and movement, deeply pathologizes them, commodifies them, then sells them back to us.”
Virgie Tovar
what you get when you join
The resources inside are designed to walk you through my step-by-step approach to improve your over-all wellbeing – food, body, power.
Video Lessons
A new module is released every other week with several mini-lessons to keep you paced and on-track. The space between modules will give you time to process and use the practices in your life.
Live Coaching Every Other Week
We meet every other week for feedback – in community. Ask your questions, process your experience with us, and get immediate feedback from me and support from your peers. Hearing other members questions will help you relate, reflect, and process.
Workbook, Food Journaling & Meditations
This program workbook – designed by me! – – will keep you on track, taking action, accountable, and engaged. Meditations, guided audio, and activities will build new thought patterns and help the behaviors stick.
Unlimited Support & Feedback
Group and individual text support. Ask your questions on the go and get audio answers from me. This will be SO helpful for you, will keep you connected, and keep you inspired.
Membership in Private Group Space
Support from the other women in your cohort can fast-track your progress. Our private group space on Mightly Networks and community text on Voxer will foster a sense of communal healing. Being seen works wonders.
2 Year Access To Materials
You’ll have lifetime access to the workbooks. They’re yours to keep. Video and audio recordings of the classes will be available for you to go back and listen to again and again for 2 years. The more you hear it, the more you believe it.
The Power Of Women In Community
Sharing and being heard by other women is wildly validating and healing.
Your Body Image Woes Are Not Yours To Bear Alone.
Food and body issues are way too often experienced in silence, intensifying the shame and loneliness. Hearing other’s experiences is impactful.
Diet Culture Is Collective Oppression.
We were all born into this system, so no matter what your body looks like, we all suffer. There is power in connection.
Shame Dissipates In Community.
Putting voice to the ways in which you’ve been taught your body is not good enough, and the ways in which food choices rule you life will lighten your load and allow you to help others.

We can talk about what you’re dealing with so you can feel confident knowing if this is the right program for you.
what you’ll experience
Here’s what you’ll move through…
01. Mind & Thought Work
Improving your relationship with food involves a lot of unlearning. Diet culture and wellness culture are full of untrue, unhelpful, and biased information that gets baked into your psyche through the years. You will see these clearly so you can build new thought patterns and behaviors that align with your true well-being. We’ll disrupt the narrative in your head that your body is a problem and that perfection and fixing are required. Then, you can reclaim your inner wisdom.
02. Attuned Nourishing
Integrate the Intuitive Eating framework into your relationship with food. Learn to notice and respond to your body’s subtle physical cues for hunger, fullness, and satisfaction. Learn useful, practical skills for nourishing yourself without rigidity. Uncover the reasons you eat past fullness, binge eat, or eat when you’re bored or stressed. With a proven system to walk you through this, your eating habits will calm down and feel more balanced and normal.
You’ll also learn the truth about how to feed yourself for your specific condition – blood sugar, inflammation, and hormonal issues are addressed.
03. Body Image Shifting
Body image work is woven throughout the whole program. This is essential to your progress with food and self-trust. Uncover the hidden thoughts and feelings you have about your body so you can start to heal and move toward positive body image.
Resolve the conflict about how hard it is to lose weight – but how badly you desire it, and perhaps the cognitive dissonance this has created alongside your desire to be a free, liberated woman. This is complex. Whatever you’re experiencing, we can handle it.

Do you obsess about everything you eat?
Worry about people judging you?
Afraid that if you stop watching what you eat, you’ll keep gaining weight forever?
None of this is your default.
Women are taught the way their body adheres to the thin ideal is most important thing about them. This wreaks havoc on the way we relate to that body and to the experience of being a woman.
This can also create dysfunctional eating habits, binge eating, stress and anxiety, and a host of other problems.
I know that if you can learn to trust and listen to your body, it can be an incredible guide.
This 6-month program guides and supports you through healing your relationship with food so you can eat with confidence, find peace, and discover ways to care for your body – as it is.
More Details For The Detail People
Here’s a walk through of all of the 12 modules
MODULE 1
No More Restriction
We are going beyond ‘no more diets’ to uncover why limits on what and how much you’re allowed to eat keeps you stuck distrusting your body. You’ll learn what you want and feel good eating.
MODULE 2
Mind-Body Intuition
Explore the ways you’ve been taught to silence your inner knowing so you can start hearing them again. You will be guided to listen for what your inner wisdom is telling you – the foundation of intuitive eating.
MODULE 3
Food As Coping
Emotional eating is a complex phenomenon. You’ll take a look at how dieting and body image affect your desire to eat, and learn strategies to self-sooth, build compassion, and heal.
MODULE 4
Honoring Hunger
We start the intuitive eating phase with tapping into the many ways our body tells us it needs nourishment. You’ll find space to feel what you’re unique body is telling you so you can feel more neutral about hunger.
MODULE 5
Peaceful Eating
Letting go of rigidity around eating will lead you toward trust. This step can be scary, and you can take it at the pace that is right for you.
MODULE 6
The Pleasure Principle
Eating what you want is definitely confusing if you have a hard time trusting your body. We will explore flavor, texture, and mindfulness in order for you to experience the difference between satisfaction and fullness.
MODULE 7
Knowledge, Not Rules
You will be challenging your inner critic. We learn throughout our lives that being judgemental and harsh to oursevles is what helps us make positive change. We’ll turn that on it’s head.
MODULE 8
Finding Fullness
Finding peace and ability to stop eating when your body has had enough physically can feel really hard if you’ve been dieting your whole life. We’ll practice saying ‘enough’.
MODULE 9
Exploring Body Image
We explore what our body image is made up of, building awareness and compassion.
MODULE 10
Embodiment
Here’s where we take the theoretical body image work and actually incorporate it into your being. You’ll experience growth and build a toolkit for life-long body image resilience.
MODULE 11
Joyful Movement
Punishment is not enjoyable. We’ll learn how to build a happy, flexible, sustainable relationship with moving your body in ways unique to you.
MODULE 12
Gentle Nutrition
Learn how to make changes to your diet (if you want to) that align with the new system of self-care you’ve been learning. Gentle nutrition can be used with PCOS, blood sugar imbalances, optimizing nutrition for fertility, and much more.
You can enjoy food again.
You can bask in a delicious dinner with family or friends without worry, comparison, and self-judgement.
Program guarantee and my promise
I absolutely guarantee that fully engaging through this program and committing to doing the work and showing up for yourself will change your life. You will drastically shift how you relate to food and your body. I cannot promise results – but that’s not what this program is about. This program is about unlearning the culture of “results” and “perfection”. You will learn to see progress differently and be so glad that you did.
I do not assume that you can drop everything and put 100% of your attention here. That would be replicating diet culture’s oppression.
We’re going to build strategies that fit into your life, no matter how full it is. I understand women often have caregiving responsibilities, that although may not always feel sustainable, are often not optional.
It’s super important to me that we don’t recreate the harmful treadmill that you’ve been on.
It may not look like we’ve been told it’s supposed to,
but when have things ever…
This is the only life you have – do you really want to spend it obsessing about calories and how your body is perceived?

about your guide
Emily Van Eck, MS, RD
Registered Dietitian
Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor
I have been guiding women+ in all types of bodies toward peace, pleasure, and health for over 10 years. My experience as a non-diet dietitian nutritionist has informed the creation of this transformative program.
I help people connect with their body’s wisdom. This is the fuel you need to heal your relationship to food and find trust that you are taking excellent care of yourself.
I decided to become a dietitian because I knew that deeply satisfying food was nourishing, but it seemed that the dominant cultural narrative about “healthy” food and “healthy” bodies was making this extremely difficult and doing harm.
I struggled with my relationship with food a lot as a youngster and feel I have a unique perspective to help others break free from that oppression.
I earned a masters degree in nutrition science, became a registered dietitian, and a certified intuitive eating counselor.
And now I myth-bust fad diets, advocate for body equality, and help people connect to their inner wisdom and sense of “enough”.
I’m so glad you’re here. I can’t wait to see you find the peace and pleasure you deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I need to miss a group call?
If you need to miss a group coaching call, you can pre-submit questions and have them answered for you to watch on the recording later that day. You will still have access to the materials and the community to catch up on anything you missed.
How much time do I need per week?
1 hour per 2-week period in-session with the group, plus 1-2 hours per week of active time watching the module videos and working on your homework is recommended. We are slowly working to make many tiny moments of your day transition from the old way of thinking – to the new. So you could think of it like that – 5 minutes per hour every hour while you’re awake (and hopefully while you’re dreaming too). That said, you have access to the videos for a year and the workbook forever, so you can go back and do it all again if you want.
How do I access the materials and calls?
The live coaching calls are done on Zoom. The lessons, activities, and meditations are released for each module into an easy-to-use online platform. The community group and voxer are there for support whenever you need it.
Does it matter where I live?
Nope, that’s the beauty. You can join from anywhere in the world (including from vacation!). The live sessions are recorded, so if the time doesn’t work for you – you can catch us on the recording later. If you live on the other side of the world, you can submit your questions to be answered live during the group coaching calls.
Will I lose weight with this program?
The truth is, some people may. Others won’t. You can reach your set-point weight by healing your relationship to food and quitting the dieting cycle. Weight loss is not the goal of the Love Food Again program. We are working to heal your relationship to food and your body, and yes, it might change in the process.
I have a health condition like PCOS or diabetes. Is this a good program for me?
Yes absolutely. More and more studies show the benefits of Intuitive Eating for hormonal health conditions – especially for those who also have disordered eating. Intuitive eaters have lower blood pressures, get more enjoyment from exercise, feel better about themselves overall, have a more diverse diet, and have more stable weight. Book a free discovery call with me if you’d like to ask about your specific condition.
I have an eating disorder. Can I join?
This group aims to help those who struggle with disordered eating and a chaotic relationship to food and their body. If you are in the active stages of an eating disorder, this program may not be right for you and individual sessions may be better. Feel free to reach out or schedule a discovery call and we can figure it out together. You could also ask your therapist or doctor.
How much improvement will I get with this program?
This program is designed to provide you everything you need to transform your relationship with food and your body. We will spend a significant amount of time on mindset, intuitive eating, and body image to help you change your relationship to food from all angles. For most people, healing from disordered eating is a journey that takes time, patience, and persistence. But I chose 5 months specifically because that is what I’ve seen work for people for years. This is deep work that has the potential to radically change your life for the better.
