I don't want to assume what people need. I'd like to hear from YOU. What would genuinely help you right now:
Webinars? Workshops? Group programmes? Cooking sessions? Something else entirely? (2/3)
I've just released a video with 3 approaches that actually help:
💚 Healthier comfort snacks (still treats, but stabilise blood sugar)
💚 Gentle distractions (create space to check in)
💚 Sitting with emotions (the hardest, but most powerful)

High-sugar foods cause blood sugar spikes and crashes.
An hour later: more tired, more irritable, more overwhelmed.
So you reach for more food.
The cycle continues.
First: there's nothing wrong with reaching for comfort food.
It's not weakness. Your nervous system is overwhelmed. Sugar and fat trigger dopamine — they genuinely provide temporary relief.
The problem is what happens next.
Trigger days are hard.
Mother's Day tomorrow. Easter coming. Anniversaries. Birthdays without them.
On these days, many of us turn to food for comfort.
Here's what's actually happening — and what helps:
Did you know grief diverts blood away from your digestive system?
Or that cravings and emotional eating after loss aren't character flaws - they're physiological responses?
