Do You Ignore Your Hunger?

Helen Lawal Season 1 Episode 2

Do you notice when you’re hungry? Or do you tend to ignore it until you’re ravenous?

In this episode, Helen dives into the importance of tuning into your body’s hunger cues - especially if you often skip meals, don’t feel hungry, or get so busy that eating becomes an afterthought.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why ignoring hunger can lead to binge eating, constant snacking and low energy
  • How hunger affects mood, focus and decision-making
  • Common reasons why people miss hunger cues
  • Signs you might not be recognising your hunger signals

Helen also shares a personal story about how long workdays as a Doctor led to binge eating and how she changed her habits.
