READ POST{HMW} The surprising thing that happens before stress eating kicks in
Dear Reader, A quick share for you today. You know I talk a lot about how stress eating isn’t really about food, it’s about what your nervous system is trying to manage underneath. When we’re depleted, overwhelmed, or stretched thin, food becomes the fastest source of comfort, control, or pause. That’s why I wanted to share a resource from my friend Nick Urban, a Certified CHEK Practitioner and Human Optimization Coach. He created a short, science-backed 3-Step Guide to 10X Your Energy that...
READ POST{HMW} You're wired to compare your eating with others. Here's how to stop.
Dear Reader, Ever glance at someone else's meal and immediately judge your own? You're not alone. We're wired to compare our eating to others. It's actually an evolutionary holdover from when observing what others ate helped us survive. But here's the problem: you have zero complete information about what someone else's body actually needs. Their metabolism, activity level, when they last ate, their health conditions—you're missing all of it. You're comparing your internal experience to their...
READ POST{HMW} Why you're starving some mornings (and not others)
Dear Reader, Some mornings I wake up ravenous. Other mornings, the idea of breakfast sounds deeply unappealing. And it's not random—my morning hunger is actually responding to a bunch of factors from the day before. What I ate for dinner and when. How well I slept. My stress levels. Whether I exercised. All of it influences whether my body wakes up needing fuel immediately or still working through what I ate hours ago. Your quick win: If you're confused about whether you're actually hungry in...

READ POST{HMW} Why Some Meals Keep You Full for Hours—and Others Don’t
Dear Reader, Ever felt perfectly satisfied after a meal, only to find yourself back in the kitchen an hour later wondering what happened? You ate enough. You even stopped at comfortable fullness. But somehow, the satisfaction just... evaporated. This week's Consciously Eaten podcast episode digs into what I call "the fullness fade"—and more importantly, why some meals keep you satisfied for hours while others leave you searching for more within minutes. Spoiler: it's not about willpower or...
READ POST{HMW} Between ravenous and stuffed: finding your actual sweet spot
Dear Reader, Hunger and fullness aren't binary states. They actually exist on a spectrum most of us were never taught to read. Think of it as a scale from 1 to 10. At 1, you're ravenous, dizzy, desperate. At 10, you're Thanksgiving-dinner stuffed, uncomfortable, unbuttoning your pants. Neither extreme supports conscious eating or body trust. The sweet spot? Starting to eat around a 3 or 4 (genuinely hungry, but not frantic) and stopping around a 6 or 7 (satisfied, energized, knowing you could...

READ POST{HMW} The self-care category you're probably ignoring
Dear Reader, As someone who cares about all kinds of self-care be it, nutrition, sleep, fitness, stress-reduction, etc - I find that relational self-care sometimes goes on the back-burner when in reality, is probably the most important aspect of our sense of peace and safety. As the holiday season approaches, many couples find themselves in a familiar struggle. You may feel like you’re carrying the entire mental load of organizing gifts, meals, and festivities alone—while your partner seems...
