You don’t suddenly “lose control” in the evening. You hit empty.

If nights feel urgent, chaotic or like something takes over… this episode will explain why.

This is Part 2 of the evening eating series, and it’s where we stop analysing the evening itself and look at what’s actually draining you all day long.

Because by the time dinner’s over, the cupboards are open and you’re eating without thinking, your system is already exhausted.

In this episode, we talk about:

✔ Why hunger, stress and decision-making quietly pile up

✔ How skipping meals and being “good” with food makes nights harder

✔ Why food becomes the fastest relief when you’re depleted

✔ What “capacity” actually looks like in real life (not theory)

✔ How to give yourself more energy, patience and control before the evening

I break down the five biggest things that leave people overdrawn by night:

✔ Under-fuelling during the day

✔ Emotional load and stress

✔ Decision fatigue and mental overload

✔ Poor sleep, hormones, digestion and pain

✔ Being the one who holds everything together

If you’ve ever stood in the kitchen thinking “I don’t even want this, but I can’t stop”, this episode is for you.

✨ This episode is based on The Evening Audit: a tool I use with clients to pinpoint exactly why evenings keep going off track.

It helps you:

✔ See what’s draining you most

✔ Stop blaming yourself

✔ Make one small change that actually makes tonight easier
