What if carbs aren't the problem? This is your invitation to rethink the “clean eating” rules that left you drained.
In this episode, I unpack the truth about carbohydrates—how they impact your energy, hormones, and mental clarity—and why cutting them might be doing more harm than good. You’ll learn how to use carbs intentionally to feel nourished, not depleted, and why they can be a key part of a healthy, whole-food lifestyle.
We’ll look at how carbs actually support the body—and why the low-carb mindset can lead to burnout, cravings, hormone imbalances, and disconnection from your body’s natural rhythms. You’ll walk away with a grounded, holistic perspective on how to fuel yourself with more ease, clarity, and trust.
We cover…
- Why carbs are not the villain when it comes to weight and energy balance
- How your brain and nervous system actually depend on certain carbs to function optimally
- The difference between carbs that ground and fuel you vs. those that spike and crash you
- Simple mindset shifts to help you eat with more ease, presence, and trust
It is time to move away from restrictive food rules and toward a more intuitive way of eating - one that helps you feel mentally clear, emotionally calm, and physically nourished, even on your busiest days.
If you're craving a more intuitive, holistic approach to nutrition - without obsessing over every meal, then this one’s for you.
