Episode 130: The Truth About Snacking, Hunger, and Hormones in Midlife
Are you hungry all the time—or not hungry at all until the moment your head hits the pillow? You're not broken, you're just in midlife! In this episode, we dive into how hunger cues shift during perimenopause, how to snack smart without guilt, and how to anchor your cravings in Christ instead of quick fixes.
You’ll learn:
- Why midlife hunger feels unpredictable
- How cortisol, insulin, and ghrelin play a role in your cravings
- The smartest way to build a satisfying snack
- Practical snack ideas that support fat loss and hormone balance
- The deeper spiritual truth about hunger—and how to bring it to God
This one’s part science, part strategy, and all grace. Let’s stop shaming hunger and start listening to what your body (and soul) are really asking for.
