Nicole Burbank, a nutritional therapy practitioner with a background in functional and precision medicine, joins me for our last episode of this mini-series to discuss something that I have been wanting to discuss for a long time, emotions and food.
At some point in our lives, we've all sought solace in food to navigate the complexities of our emotions. This practice is not only widespread but also on the rise. Having personally grappled with some of these tendencies, I'm excited for you all to hear Nicole's insights on improving your emotional coping mechanisms and reclaiming control over your connection with food.
