If you’ve ever thought, “I just can’t stop eating sugar,” this episode is for you.

I’ll share what I discovered while reviewing 20 nutrition genomic reports from breast cancer survivors—and the surprising genetic commonalities that explain both difficulties with blood sugar regulation and stronger tendencies toward impulsive cravings.

You’ll also learn how cancer cells use insulin receptors to fuel their growth, why sugar is about more than just sweets, and how your brain and body work together in the cycle of cravings. Plus, I’ll walk you through The 5 S’s framework—a simple set of tools to calm cravings and create a terrain that supports healing.

Listen now and discover how to nourish yourself with more confidence and trust.
