Sugar Addiction & Stress: Jolene Park's Nourishing Approach

De-Stress For Success with Isabella Ferguson

Today I have THE BEST guest out there to talk about the link between sugar addiction and stress and how we can understand it better and manage it. Jolene Park, functional nutritionist, Ted X Speaker, coach of coaches and expert on sugar addiction, stress, grey area drinking and a whole lot more.
Are you addicted to sugar? Do you crave sugary treats when you are stressed? Are you like me and find yourself scoffing back cherry ripes in the car all by yourself hidden from the kids trying to get some respite from the day? In fact, sugar impacts the same neural pathways as alcohol!
For many women, sugar cravings and emotional eating is a hidden shameful struggle that we don't often talk about. Jolene discusses the biological and emotional drive behind these cravings, including the lasting influence of stress and early childhood experiences. Learn about gut microbiome imbalances, nutritional deficiencies like magnesium, and emotional triggers that create these cravings. With an emphasis on self-compassion, we uncover that cravings are messages from the body about underlying imbalances, not signs of personal failure.
Achieving holistic wellness goes beyond diet; it encompasses spiritual well-being, relationships, leisure, relaxation, and sleep. Jolene and I discuss the interconnectedness of physical and emotional health, the role of cortisol in weight management, and the benefits of nutrients like protein, magnesium, and healthy fats. Discover practical strategies for balancing your lifestyle, building resilience, and supporting overall well-being without strict deprivation.
