Summary
In this episode, we're breaking down emotional eating and why it's usually not a lack of discipline around food. If you find yourself eating when you're stressed, anxious, bored, overwhelmed, or exhausted, food may have become a way to cope, find comfort, or simply shut your brain off for a few minutes. We break down how to recognize what's actually driving the behavior, how to interrupt the pattern, and how to build healthier ways to handle what you're feeling instead. At the core, you need to understand why you need the food in the first place. Free Protein Guide Need some simple ways to get more protein in without spending hours cooking?
