How to Stop Nighttime Snacking: The "Inner Coach" Method

Описание: Why do successful leaders who make high-stakes decisions all day lose control in front of the refrigerator at 9:00 PM?

In this Mind for All Seasons Masterclass, we are joined by Evan Messman, a "leadership coach disguised as a nutritionist". Evan explains why the key to fixing your diet isn't about willpower or food pyramids—it's about regulating your nervous system and changing the voice in your head.

If you find yourself perfectly disciplined during the work day but needing a "release" or comfort food at night, this episode explains exactly why that happens and how to stop it without strict diets .

In this episode, you will learn:

✅ The "Shatterproof" Concept: How to move beyond being "resilient" (denting) to becoming "shatterproof" (undamaged) by life's stressors.

✅ The 9 PM Trap: Why the "Inner Critic" takes over when you are tired and how to identify its 10 different disguises (like the Perfectionist Maestro or Comfort Seeker).

✅ Agency vs. Compliance: Why telling people what to eat fails, and how to build the agency to make better choices instinctively.

✅ The 3-Step Reset: A simple technique (Recognize, Reframe, Replace) to turn off the fight-or-flight response before you take a bite .

✅ The "Suck Zone": Why feeling fear and discomfort means you are actually in the "Growth Zone".

"The most important thing is not what you eat... it's really WHY you eat the things that you eat." — Evan Messman
