Emotional Eats Podcast: Real conversations about menopause, hormones, emotional eating, and weight loss for women over 40


Feb 17, 2025

Welcome to Episode 94 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!

My guest today is Erin Keating, host of the Hotter Than Ever Podcast and founder of Hotter Than Ever, a media company redefining life for women over 40. Erin’s incredible ability to verbalize the struggles and unspoken truths women face in midlife will leave you inspired, reflective, and ready to embrace the second half of your life on your terms.

In this conversation, Erin shares her story—one of resilience, reinvention, and breaking free from societal expectations. From her childhood as a latchkey kid to her years as a high-powered media executive, Erin gets real about overcoming body image struggles, navigating midlife pivots, and discovering the freedom to live authentically.  

We dive deep into:

  • The power of saying "no" and setting boundaries
  • Overcoming the “good girl” narrative and people-pleasing
  • The constant push-pull of body image and self-worth throughout life
  • Rediscovering passions, curiosity, and the freedom to live life by your own rules
  • Why the second half of life is the perfect time to rewrite your story

This episode is an empowering reminder that you don’t have to do life the way it’s always been done. You can break the rules, follow your curiosity, and create a life that reflects your deepest desires.

If Erin’s story resonates with you, reach out and let us know. Share this episode with a friend who could use some inspiration to start shaping the next phase of her life.
