Why does stress make us tired, hungry, and burned out — all at once?
 In this episode, we unpack how cortisol, the body’s main stress hormone, affects metabolism, appetite, and energy.
 From sugar cravings to belly fat, insomnia to burnout, it’s all connected — and it’s not your lack of willpower, it’s your biology.

Because when your body’s in survival mode, your metabolism follows the story your brain tells it.
