Description

Have you ever reached for food when you were stressed, tired, or overwhelmed—and then felt worse afterward? You’re not alone. In this episode, I sat down with Jenn Trepeck, health coach and host of Salad with a Side of Fries, to explore the powerful connection between what we eat and how we feel—mentally, emotionally, and physically.


From blood sugar dips to emotional patterns, Jenn breaks down why our cravings happen and how we can support both our brain and body through balanced, feel-good nutrition—without dieting or restriction.



💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:


✔️ How food impacts your mood, energy, and emotional well-being
✔️ The real reasons behind cravings (hint: it’s not lack of willpower)
✔️ How to balance your blood sugar to feel more emotionally stable
✔️ Why eating habits affect anxiety, irritability, and overwhelm
✔️ Jenn’s simple framework to change your relationship with food for good
