You're Not Broken - You're Wired for Survival

from Weight Loss with the Holy Spirit · host Denise Jelinek

You're not broken—and you're not failing. 💛 In this powerful conversation, Denise sits down with a nervous system expert to answer the question so many women are quietly asking: Why do I know what to do… but still can't do it? 🎙️ Together, they unpack how your brain and nervous system are actually wired for survival, not perfection, and how patterns like stress eating, self-sabotage, people pleasing, and inconsistency are often protective responses—not personal failures 🙏. You'll learn about the five stress responses, how they shape your habits with food and weight loss, and why willpower alone isn't enough to create lasting change. If you've ever felt stuck, frustrated, or confused by your own behavior, this episode will help you understand what's really going on in your body—and how to begin responding with more awareness, compassion, and intention. 💫  Here are the related links: FREE Stress Response Quiz (https://solutionsforsimplicity.myflodesk.com/stress-response-denise) Dr. Amber's website (https://solutionsforsimplicity.com) The More Time for Mom podcast (https://moretimeformom.buzzsprout.com) #WeightLossWithTheHolySpirit #NervousSystem #EmotionalEating #StressEating #CatholicWeightLoss
