Freedom starts from within.
You were never meant to spend your life controlled by food. We work on the behaviors, triggers, thought patterns, habits, and environments that keep the cycle alive — and build the tools, accountability, structure, and support needed to create lasting change.
Freedom isn’t being able to “have just one.”
Food addiction can take over far more than what is on your plate. It can consume your thoughts, dictate your choices, steal your confidence, keep you trapped in shame and secrecy, and make you feel like you are constantly starting over.
And that is why the work we do here goes far beyond another diet, meal plan, or attempt to lose weight. At Brain Body & Beyond, we help people struggling with food addiction, sugar addiction, emotional eating, chronic overeating, and destructive patterns with food understand what is actually keeping them stuck.
Freedom is no longer being controlled by it.
Something powerful happens when food stops taking up so much space in your life. I have watched it happen again and again with the people I work with. They come to me wanting freedom from food, but as they begin to break free, their entire world starts to open up.
They have more energy. More confidence. More clarity. They begin trusting themselves again. They start setting boundaries, pursuing passions, strengthening relationships, taking risks, dreaming bigger, and thinking about what they actually want from their lives. For perhaps the first time in a long time, there is space to ask:
That is the Beyond in Brain Body & Beyond. It is not simply about changing your food or changing your body — it is about helping you come back home to yourself: your brain, your body, your health, your confidence, and the person underneath all of the noise.
Our mission is to help you break free from food addiction, rebuild trust with yourself, and discover everything that becomes possible on the other side of the struggle. This is food freedom. This is Brain Body & Beyond.
I don’t coach from a textbook.
I lived it for more than 20 years.
Meghann — Founder, Brain Body & Beyond
Before I ever coached someone through food addiction and sugar addiction, I knew exactly what it felt like to be controlled by it — the bargaining, the shame, the secrecy, the promises that tomorrow will be different.
My battle started when I was nine years old and followed me into adulthood, and if you had looked at me from the outside, you may never have known. Food addiction comes in all different shapes and sizes. There were seasons when I looked healthy, strong, and incredibly fit — I worked in fitness, I trained hard. But internally, I was hurting. Alongside my struggles with food came years of anxiety, depression, OCD, ADD, and disordered eating.
At some of my lowest points, I made a promise to myself: if I ever figure out how to break free from this addiction, I am going to spend my life helping other people do the same.
- Age 9The private battle with food addiction begins. I was a highly medicated child who started using food to soothe myself, with an appetite that never let up — no amount of food was ever enough. I quickly became the chubby kid with no self-confidence, growing up feeling like I was just going through the motions.
- Age 16Found the gym. I believed I didn’t have much to offer the world, but thought that if I could be fit and pretty, maybe I would. I quickly became addicted to fitness and to the results — still completely out of control with food, but now purging through exercise as well.
- 2015Began coaching others in health and fitness while quietly still gripped by food addiction and bulimia — teaching the health I hadn’t yet found for myself. Chasing a lifelong calling, I stepped away to pursue the fire service, until an on-duty accident changed everything.
- RebuildingThe accident brought a traumatic brain injury and cost me the career I had fought to build. In the middle of rebuilding my health, my identity, and my life from the ground up, I finally broke free from food addiction in 2019 — and out of that breakthrough, Brain Body & Beyond was born.
- TodayFree for more than seven years now — I coach clients around the world and speak on stages across the country about food addiction, recovery, and the life waiting on the other side of it.
I’ve been the woman who looked perfectly healthy on the outside while hurting deeply on the inside. I’ve been the patient searching for answers. I’ve been the single mother trying to hold everything together. I’ve lost pieces of my health, my career, and my identity — and I’ve had to find my way back to myself more than once.
I know what it feels like to wonder whether you will ever be free — and I also know what it feels like when you finally are.
What once felt like the most painful part of my story ultimately became my purpose. That is exactly what I do today.
There is more than one way to find freedom.
Whether you want to break free from food addiction, bring an intensive experience into your own home, book a speaker for your audience, or build more freedom through your own coaching business — there is a path designed to meet you where you are.
1:1 Food Addiction Coaching
Imagine waking up and food is no longer the first battle you fight.
You wake up promising yourself that today will be different. You make rules. You negotiate. You hold it together for a few days — and then stress, loneliness, a hard day, or one bite of a trigger food sends you right back inside the cycle you swore you were done with. Then comes the guilt, the shame, the hiding.
But you know this isn’t really about the food anymore. You don’t need another meal plan telling you what to eat — you need to understand why you keep going back to the behaviors that are hurting you, and you need someone beside you while you learn a completely different way to live. For many clients, this shows up specifically as sugar addiction — the one substance that seems impossible to moderate no matter how much willpower you bring to it.
This is a highly personalized, one-on-one coaching experience where we work together closely to identify the patterns, foods, thoughts, emotions, environments, and behaviors that have kept you stuck — and begin changing them at the root. You have direct chat support with me every weekday so I can help hold your hand through the process, one day and one decision at a time.
Together, we identify your personal trigger foods, patterns, rituals, vulnerable times, environments, and emotional triggers — and start separating your voice from the addictive voice. We work on recognizing the bargaining (“maybe I can just have one,” “I’ll start again tomorrow”) and responding differently. This is where the rewiring begins — building new neural and behavioral patterns until the new way of living feels more natural than the old one.
One of the biggest mistakes people make is waiting until they’re in the middle of a craving, a vacation, or a holiday to decide what they’re going to do. Together, we determine what foods and behaviors need to become non-negotiable, and build plans for restaurants, travel, holidays, social pressure, and the situations where you’ve historically been most vulnerable. You stop waking up wondering whether today will be another battle.
For years, food may have been your comfort, your reward, your escape, your best friend after a hard day. When we remove the foods and behaviors serving those roles, there is a very real grieving process. We work through the five stages of grief and understand what the food was doing for you emotionally — because learning how to live without needing it is where freedom begins.
Willpower works beautifully — until you’re tired, stressed, or standing face-to-face with the thing that has controlled you for years. Your armor is made of your boundaries, routines, environment, preparation, mindset, non-negotiables, support system, and the ability to recognize the addictive voice before it takes over. Piece by piece, we make you stronger.
The goal is for you to walk away with a completely different relationship with yourself: stronger boundaries, clearer thinking, practical recovery tools, and an identity no longer built around constantly fighting food. You came in feeling controlled by food — I want you to leave knowing how to protect your freedom from it.

5-Day In-Person Food Addiction Intensive
Five days. In your environment. Working through the process together.
For the person who wants the highest level of access, personalization, and hands-on support, I offer a limited number of private 5-Day In-Person Food Addiction Intensives. Instead of trying to translate coaching into your everyday environment on your own, I come to you.
For five days, we work through my food addiction process side by side, inside the environment where your habits and routines actually happen. We grocery shop together. We purge and reorganize your pantry and kitchen. We cook together. We work out together. We evaluate your routines, triggers, and vulnerable moments in real time, and work through mindset, boundaries, food sobriety tools, and the strategies you’ll need after I leave.
There is nowhere to hide behind what you think you do or what you plan to do — we get to see what is actually happening and change it together. This experience is intentionally offered to only a small number of clients, and requires a significant investment.
You aren’t leaving with another binder of information. You are leaving with a different environment, different systems, different tools, and a clear plan.
Filling this out helps me understand your specific needs. I’ll personally review it, and if it feels like the right fit, we’ll set up a free 30-minute call to talk it through.
Speaking Engagements
Let’s have the conversations about food addiction that more people need to hear.
Food addiction and sugar addiction are often misunderstood, minimized, or hidden behind conversations about dieting and weight loss. I speak openly about what it actually looks like to live with food addiction, why someone can appear healthy and fit while struggling deeply behind closed doors, and what it takes to begin creating real freedom.
I am available to speak at conferences, corporate events, wellness events, panels, retreats, podcasts, and other live experiences across the country. My talks combine lived experience, more than a decade of coaching, and practical education around addiction, behavior, mindset, recovery, and identity.
My goal is the same whether I’m speaking to a room of ten people or standing on a larger stage: to make people feel seen, challenge how they think about food addiction, and leave them believing that change is possible.
Business Mentorship
Build the business. Create the freedom.
Business Mentorship is a separate coaching service from my food addiction work, specifically for coaches who want to build a profitable remote coaching business that gives them more freedom over their time, income, and life.
We work on getting clear about who you help, creating an offer people actually want to buy, positioning and messaging, pricing, content that converts, lead generation, sales, client experience, systems, recurring revenue, and the mindset required to stop treating your coaching business like a hobby and start building it like a business.
It’s about building a business that supports your life — not a life that revolves around your business.
You don’t have to follow the conventional path simply because it is the one you were given. You can build another one.
Filling this out helps me understand your specific needs. I’ll personally review it, and if it feels like the right fit, we’ll set up a free 30-minute call to talk it through.
