Break Free from Food Struggles & Body Shame

For Good!

Join hundreds of women finding long lasting freedom!

So you’ve tried everything

diets, willpower, self-love but nothing truly lasts.

Deep down, you wonder if real freedom is even possible for you.

Maybe you’ve prayed for healing, but still feel stuck in the cycle of  guilt, shame, restriction, bingeing, and exhaustion…

Is that you? 

You are NOT alone.

 

And you don’t have to fight this battle by yourself.

You don’t have to keep battling food, body shame, and control on your own.

With neuroscience-backed strategies and nervous system regulation grounded in biblical truth, full recovery and true freedom is possible.

What You’ll Find Here:

 

 Faith-based path to food & body healing—no more shame, guilt, or obsession

Hey there!

I'M EMI SOUZA

Read my story  ➝

Founder of Together We Rise Collective, Host of TWR Podcast & RD, CBT-E Therapist.

I've transformed my mess into my MISSION.

I’m a faith-based CBT-E therapist, registered dietitian, and recovery coach, and I’ve helped hundreds of women just like you break free for good— the kind of freedom that doesn’t come from willpower alone but from stepping into your true identity and surrendering to God’s design.

I know what it’s like to feel trapped in the cycle—fighting food, fighting my body, and feeling like I was never enough. I spent 15 years striving, controlling, and searching for healing in all the wrong places.

When I finally recovered, I decided to dedicate my life to helping women do the same, guiding thousands toward food and body freedom in the last decade.

Science works, but breaking free from the strongholds of shame, guilt, fear, and scarcity—is what will finally allow you to trust your body, feel at peace with food, and live fully in who God created you to be.

Whole. Restored. Free.

Why The RISE Method?

 

Unlike traditional recovery models that frame food struggles as a lifelong disease, or totally excludes God, I believe in a holistic renewal.

Mind. Body & Spirit

You don’t have to ‘manage’ an eating disorder for life—you can be free indeed.

Eating disorders are deeply ingrained habits, patterns, and coping mechanisms—but they are not life sentences.

With the right approach, these patterns can be rewired and renewed.

Healing is an active process of transformation, aligning with both science and God's design for true freedom.

You are NOT bound to this forever.

You were NOT made to live in bondage to food, body image, or the need to control everything. 

 

Together we anchor your healing in truth, restoring mind, body, and soul so you can walk in true freedom.

Are you ready to honour your body as God’s temple and embrace the peace He has promised?

"So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." – John 8:36

Start Your Journey Today!

"For years, I tried to ‘logic’ my way out of my food struggles, but nothing truly clicked.

Emi’s approach helped me bridge the gap between science and self-trust, and for the first time, I felt real freedom. I no longer obsess over food—I just live.

That’s something I never thought was possible for me."

— Samantha, 22

"I used to think healing was all about mindset work, but something always felt missing.

Emi helped me connect with my body in a way I never had before, and that changed my life! I finally understand what it means to feel at peace with food, my body, and myself."

— Lucy, 59

You're not here to just survive, but to THRIVE in freedom!

 

The RISE Method is my signature framework that integrates:

Release – Let go of old patterns, thoughts, and behaviours that keep you stuck.

Integrate – Build sustainable habits and reshape your identity in freedom.

Strengthen – Deepen the mind-body connection and develop resilience.

Embody – Step into a life of confidence, peace, and true freedom.

My approach combines faith, science, and somatics to help you not just ‘manage’ food struggles, but break FREE.

Fully and forever.

Start Here

"As someone with a background in psychology, I was initially drawn to the CBT-E and nervous system regulation aspects of Emi’s method.

I loved that it was evidence-based, but what I didn’t expect was how much the biblical principles would speak to me. I had always approached healing from a purely logical perspective, but deep down, I felt like something was missing.

The way Emi integrates neuroscience with biblical wisdom made everything click—I finally understood why willpower alone wasn’t enough. Now, I don’t just know what to do; I feel it on a soul level.

I have peace with food, trust in my body, and a deeper sense of purpose."

— Sophie, 41

"I had spent years trying to heal my relationship with food through mindset work, energy healing, and manifestation techniques. Nothing truly lasted. I always ended up back in the same cycles of restriction and guilt.

When I found Emi’s work, I was hesitant because I had distanced myself from anything ‘religious.’ But what I discovered here wasn’t legalism or judgment—it was truth. The biblical wisdom woven into the science-based approach finally gave me a foundation that felt solid.

Instead of trying to ‘fix’ myself, I learned how to release control, rewire my habits, and trust in something greater than me. For the first time in years, I feel truly free."

— Maya, 34
