Stress Eating in Menopause: How to Stop Emotional Eating After 40 (EP 20)

Stress eating in menopause isn't a discipline problem. It's a nervous system problem. In this episode I break down what's actually driving emotional eating in women over 40, why it gets louder in perimenopause and menopause when cortisol and estrogen are dysregulated, and the specific strategies that break the pattern without restriction, shame, or white knuckling. Covers the cortisol-hunger loop, the real reason women reach for sugar at 3pm and wine at 7pm, and the nervous system work that has to happen alongside nutrition for fat loss after 40.Apply for 1:1 coaching hereJoin the BecomingHER CollectiveThe self-paced community app ($97 first month, $47/mo).
