Laura Banks

During this episode, I dig into the nitty gritty details behind cravings. I went through a really hard time with my sugar cravings and through that experience, I learned so much about cravings and why we have them. I ended up creating two "categories" of cravings so that I could better understand what I was going through. During this episode, you will learn what those two categories are and how to determine which category your cravings most often fall into.

I am also talking about how cravings have nothing to do with willpower during this episode. Believing that we give into cravings due to a lack of willpower makes us believe that something is wrong with us. Through understanding the types of cravings, you will better understand why eating in response to a craving is not about willpower at all!

Finally, this episode digs into why we have stronger cravings around our monthly period and what can be done to avoid this.
