The Chronic Stress Loop That’s Sabotaging Your Health (and How to Break It) with Claire Ketchum | 028

She finally cracked the code on mindful eating – then life flipped the table. A terrifying diagnosis. A stress spiral. A breakthrough she never saw coming.

Claire Ketchum had finally found food freedom after 20 years of yo-yo dieting. Mindful eating wasn’t just working – it felt like magic. Until her 9-year-old daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, and suddenly food became math, medicine, and anxiety. The mindful bliss was gone, replaced by panic and guilt. 

In this powerful, illuminating conversation, Claire breaks down how she escaped the chronic stress loop – that sneaky cycle where stress hijacks your willpower – and how she now helps teens (and the parents who love them) develop real-deal, sustainable, healthy habits. 

Spoiler: it's not about food. It’s about trust, stress resilience, and giving up the myth that willpower is the answer.
