Description

If you keep finding yourself reaching for food when you’re not even hungry — especially when you’re stressed, tired, or overwhelmed — you’re not alone.


In this episode, Lara breaks down why emotional eating is so common after 40, how shifting hormones, stress, and metabolism all play a role, and one mindset shift that helps you stop turning to food for comfort — without relying on willpower or restriction.


You’ll learn:

👉 Why your brain craves food even when your body doesn’t need it

👉 How stress and hormone changes in perimenopause trigger cravings and emotional eating

👉 A simple daily practice to rewire the “food = comfort” habit

👉 How to start creating a peaceful relationship with food again


If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, but I still can’t stop eating,” this episode is for you.
