#55 Food is Us ! With special guest Jared Gleaton

The Midlife Empress

In this episode, I sit down with psychologist and author Jared Gleaton, who shares his remarkable weight loss journey and the transformative power of mindset. After the heartbreaking loss of his father, Jared found himself gaining significant weight as a way to cope with the grief. Over time, he packed on excess pounds, reaching a point where he knew he needed a major change. Determined to take control of his health, Jared shifted his mindset and embarked on a life-changing path, ultimately losing an astounding 176 pounds in just 12 months.

During our conversation, Jared opens up about the emotional and mental challenges he faced, and how those initial struggles fueled his drive to become healthier. We explore the methods and techniques he used, the changes he made to his daily routines, and how his psychological background played a key role in sustaining his success.

I also dive deeper into Jared’s unexpected career shift from psychologist to food critic, asking him how this new passion developed during his weight loss journey. Jared gives us fascinating insights into how he redefined his relationship with food, balancing his love for flavors and cuisine with a new, healthier perspective.

This is an inspiring episode for anyone who has faced challenges with weight or who is looking to transform their mindset and take control of their life. You won’t want to miss Jared’s powerful story of resilience, personal growth, and how he turned tragedy into triumph.
