Why We Created This Economical Option
The Addiction Reset Community (ARC) is our premium, patented recovery program with extensive daily Zoom support and a dedicated advocate. But not everyone can enjoy the full ARC experience—so we created Skillpower to make recovery more accessible.
Skillpower is a great fit if you:
-
Have a Limited Budget: Access expert guidance at a much lower cost than ARC.
-
Prefer a Streamlined Option: Skip daily Zooms and the dedicated advocate—get essential skills through Dr. Joan Ifland’s workshops and weekly emails.
-
Are Just Exploring: Learn about processed food addiction without a big commitment.
It’s the heart of our proven method—offered in a simpler, more affordable way.
"I spent decades thinking I just lacked discipline. Then I learned my brain was reacting exactly as it should to addictive foods - that's the kind of breakthrough Skillpower is designed to offer.
Why Nothing Else Has Worked
If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, you’re not alone—and you’re not the problem.
-
Diets rely on willpower and ignore the brain changes caused by addiction, leaving you feeling like a failure.
-
Most doctors don’t recognize food addiction, so they blame you instead of the real cause.
-
Processed foods are engineered to hook you, triggering cravings that feel impossible to resist.
-
Traditional programs skip the real-life skills you need to navigate cravings, stress, and social pressure.
You’ve been up against a system designed to keep you trapped. We’re here to help you break free—for good.
"I thought nothing would work for me. But once I felt truly understood and no longer judged, I realized recovery was possible - and that spirit is what Skillpower is built on."

What Our Members Are Saying
Melissa
Before the ARC, I thought I was just lazy or lacked discipline—I kept bingeing and swearing I’d stop, but nothing worked. I joined on a whim, not expecting much, but within days I felt understood and finally learned that my brain wasn’t broken—it was reacting normally to addictive foods. With daily support and real skills, I began to recover, and today, I no longer feel trapped—I feel free.
Amy
I used to think no one really understood what it was like to feel out of control around food. Therapy helped, but what made the real difference was learning the science behind cravings and replacing my old habits with skill-based practices. I didn’t just lose weight—I gained peace of mind, and that’s what I’d been missing all along.
Denise
Processed food addiction nearly cost me my health—and my dignity. What helped wasn’t just information, but structure, skills, and a way to work with the parts of me that were trying to cope. I’m not perfect, but I’m no longer spiraling—I show up, I practice, and I recover one day at a time.
