In this episode, we dive into how stress — physical, mental, and emotional — impacts fat loss in ways most women never hear about. Stress isn’t just a tough week at work or a busy schedule. It’s also under-eating, over-training, running on caffeine, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the constant pressure you put on yourself.
I’ll break down:
The 7 ways stress disrupts fat loss by impacting your hormones, metabolism, digestion, cravings, and recovery.
Why “eat less, move more” backfires when your body is in survival mode.
How stress changes both sides of the calories in vs. calories out equation (from cravings to thyroid to daily movement).
The real reason you’re not losing fat — and why pushing harder is only making it worse.
💡 Bottom line: You don’t need more discipline. You need to lower your body’s stress load so it can finally respond the way you want it to.
