Feeling like each news alert sends you straight to the pantry? You're not alone. In this episode, I offer a heartfelt pep talk for physicians struggling with stress eating during challenging times.
I share why your brain turns to chocolate when doom-scrolling about threatened rights and freedoms (and why that 10pm cookie binge makes perfect neurological sense). More importantly, I explain why adding self-criticism about your eating only makes things worse.
You'll learn practical ways to be kinder to yourself, focus on what you can control, and find better ways to process those big feelings without shame or guilt. If you've noticed your eating habits changing as the world feels increasingly chaotic, this episode is your permission slip to treat yourself with the same compassion you show your patients.
