How Sleep Impacts Weight Loss and Your Hunger Hormones with Sarah Pelc Graca & Brittney Lynn

Welcome back to Catching Zzz's! I'm Brittney Lynn, producer of the Catching Zzz's podcast and Better Sleep Council representative and this week I'm interviewing Sarah Pelc Graca who is a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, nutrition coach, and founder of Strong with Sarah. Sarah helps her clients lose weight, build confidence, and feel energized while still enjoying wine, chocolate, and social life in moderation. During our conversation, Sarah shares why getting quality rest goes far beyond feeling refreshed—it directly impacts our hunger hormones, daily movement, and even the choices we make around food.  From diving into the biological effects of sleep deprivation on hormones, to practical advice you can use when sick or navigating today's "food everywhere" culture, this episode is packed with tips and real-life wisdom for anyone looking to lose weight or simply live healthier—without extreme diets or rigid restriction.  Whether you're in the early stages of a health journey or just curious about why sleep really matters, this conversation will help you rethink your nightly routine and its ripple effects throughout your day.
