🎧 EPISODE DESCRIPTION

In this transformative episode, I share a personal revelation that changed my entire approach to health. After years of restrictive dieting, calorie obsession, and joyless routines, I discovered why these approaches actually trigger stress hormones that sabotage weight loss efforts and worsen prediabetes symptoms.


Learn how the physiological stress response from chronic dieting impacts blood sugar levels, insulin resistance, and stubborn fat storage and discover a revolutionary "joy prescription" that works with your body's natural processes instead of against them.


🔑 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

  • The powerful connection between believing you deserve care and your body's ability to heal

  • Why perfectionism and "productivity pressure" create the exact biochemical conditions preventing weight loss

  • How cortisol from restrictive eating directly sabotages your weight loss and blood sugar goals

  • The four-step joy prescription for sustainable health transformation

  • How to create a holistic vision beyond numbers and physical goals

  • A simple exercise to align your health journey with who you truly want to become
