  • The Food Feeling Connection
    Nov 21 2025

    Ever eaten something “innocent” at lunch and spent the entire afternoon feeling foggy, cranky, and ready to gnaw your own arm off? You’re not imagining it—your food choices are talking directly to your mood, energy, and mental clarity.

    In this episode, we step into mini-medical school to unpack why certain foods make you feel calm and focused… and why others send you straight onto the blood-sugar rollercoaster. I’ll share my Halloween Almond Joy debacle (spoiler: it wasn’t joyful), explain what’s really happening with insulin, cortisol, dopamine, and gut-produced serotonin, and show you how to connect what you eat with how you feel—emotionally, mentally, and physically.

    You’ll learn simple ways to shift toward meals that support stable energy, better focus, and a calmer mood—starting with a feel-amazing breakfast and a colorful, fiber-forward plate. I’ll even walk you through my favorite smoothie blueprint so you can build your own mood-boosting blend.

    If you’re ready to feel clear-headed instead of cloudy, energized instead of exhausted, and confident instead of chaotic… this episode will help you flip that switch.
