This week’s episode is all about something most people think they understand—but have actually lost touch with: hunger.

Not cravings.

Not habit eating.

Not snacking just because it’s lunchtime or someone else is eating.

I’m talking about real, physical hunger—and what happens when you stop being able to feel it, recognize it, or trust it.

In this episode, I’ll break down:

  • Why so many people lose connection to their hunger signals after years of dieting, emotional eating, and shame
  • How your brain’s reticular activating system (RAS) is filtering out the signals your body’s been trying to send you
  • What it means to become both the scientist and the test subject in your own transformation
  • How to re-learn hunger like a forgotten language—and why it’s the skill you need if you’re serious about becoming thin


If you’ve ever felt confused about your hunger…

If you’ve ever wondered why you eat when you do…

Or if you’ve been trying to follow someone else’s meal plan and it just keeps falling apart…


This episode is going to give you the clarity you’ve been missing.
