If you’ve ever found yourself knee-deep in a packet of biscuits after a stressful day, wondering why you’re eating when you’re not even hungry—this episode is for you.

In today’s chat, we’re breaking down emotional eating—what it really is, why it has nothing to do with willpower, and what you can do to start shifting out of it. We’re talking nervous system hijacks, shame spirals, cultural conditioning, and how to reclaim your power with a few simple but powerful tools.

This one is part real talk, part mini masterclass—and it’s going to help you feel seen, understood, and ready to take back control.

What You’ll Learn:

• The difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger
• Why you crave high-sugar, high-fat foods when you’re stressed
• What “trigger foods” are and how to manage them without restriction
• The role of your nervous system and the “amygdala hijack” in reactive eating
• Practical tools you can use right now to interrupt emotional eating patterns
• How cultural messages and childhood experiences shape your comfort-with-food loop
