Listen Later

Do you feel like your sugar habit has a hold over you? Does it feel like a sugar detox challenge is the only answer? An in spite of your best intentions are you always left with the question “why do I crave sugar so much?”

Then this is the episode for you. Because we’ll be dismantling a couple of myths around “sugar addiction”, addressing the reasons that you can’t seem to help sneaking your kids leftover chocolate (even though it’s not that nice) and showing you how to build a healthier relationship with the sweet stuff, which isn’t about having to constantly control your sugar intake through restriction, guilt or control. 

What we’ll cover in this episode:

  • Why you’re not addicted to sugar (and why the “sugar is as addictive as cocaine” headline is misleading).
  • The hidden needs sugar is really satisfying (comfort, reward, relief from stress or boredom).
  • Three key questions to ask yourself when cravings strike.
  • Why restriction and detoxing never solve the root issue.
  • How to start building trust with yourself instead of fighting with food.

🎧 If you’ve ever felt powerless around sugar, this episode will help you flip the script and create a relationship that feels calm, balanced, and free.
