In this episode, Sarah and Stef dive into the complex relationship between stress and eating habits. They share personal anecdotes (starting with Sarah's recent Domino's Pizza ordering experience) about how stress impacts their food choices and delve into the psychological and physiological reasons behind these patterns. Topics discussed include the challenges of stress-induced cravings, the role of carbohydrates and comfort foods, and practical strategies for managing stress. The episode also explores the benefits of somatic and cognitive approaches to stress.
