What if overeating isn't about laziness or a lack of self-control?
In this episode of Empowering Exceptional Minds, I sit down with Kamy Mousavi, founder of Step Together, to explore the connection between ADHD, emotional regulation, and eating behaviors. We discuss the dopamine-seeking brain, the shame cycle of dieting, and why behaviors like overeating are often signals of unmet needs—not character flaws.
If you've ever wondered whether your child's relationship with food is about more than just food, this episode offers a compassionate and eye-opening perspective.
