0:00.0	Hi, you guys. Welcome back to another episode. I've gotten the question quite a bit over the years. How can I tell if it's
0:06.7	physical hunger or emotional hunger? And I'm going to answer that in today's episode, but what most people don't
0:11.8	realize is there's actually four different types of hunger. And when you know how to recognize what type of
