Today, we’re celebrating a HUGE milestone… our 50th episode! I’m beyond grateful for each and every one of you who tunes in week after week. Whether you’re a longtime listener or brand new here, thank you for being part of this amazing community.

Now, let’s get into today’s episode, because this is a BIG one. If you feel like you’re doing all the “right” things… eating healthy, working out, drinking your water—but the scale isn’t moving (or worse, it’s going up), stress might be the hidden culprit. Yep, stress can secretly sabotage your weight loss efforts, and today, I’m breaking down exactly how and, more importantly, what to do about it.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

✅ How stress impacts your hormones, metabolism, and cravings
✅ Why high cortisol levels can lead to weight gain (especially around your midsection)
✅ The link between stress, emotional eating, and sugar cravings
✅ How stress slows your metabolism, making weight loss harder
✅ The surprising connection between stress, poor sleep, and increased appetite

But don’t worry… I won’t just leave you with the bad news. I’ll also share practical, real-life strategies to help you manage stress and support your weight loss goals, including:

✔️ How balancing your blood sugar can reduce cortisol levels
✔️ The importance of not skipping meals (yes, even when you’re busy!)
✔️ Simple tweaks to reduce stress-driven cravings
✔️ Why prioritizing sleep is a game-changer for weight loss
✔️ Small but powerful lifestyle habits to keep stress in check

If you’ve been feeling stuck, exhausted, or frustrated with your weight loss progress, this episode is a must-listen!
