Ep 20 - When Moving Abroad Triggers Emotional Eating - But Hey, At Least The Comfort Food's Fancier
In this episode, Aimee and Rebecca show their "human side." Rebecca shares what sparked some emotional eating while adapting to life in Paris and, thanks to Aimee's work as a professional nutritionist, they chat about the biological and emotional triggers behind comfort food cravings, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness in managing stress (whether or not your an expat!).
Meanwhile, Aimee gets vulnerable about her feelings when facing beggers on the streets. She bravely shines a light on some uncomfortable truths, candidly discussing her anger and bitterness towards societal disparities and homelessness, both in her former home of Seattle and her new life in Spain.
It's a deep one folks. Are you ready to give some thought to how we maintain our humanity and compassion for others and for ourselves, even when that's not the first thing we feel? Let's do this together!
