Hey, hey beautiful human. Can I steal five minutes of your time? I have something super important to share with you, but I promise I'll be really quick.

You're listening to my weekly bonus episode of Embrace Your Rail with me, Julie Labbetter. I'm about to give you a quick

tip for building your confidence, honoring your body and unconditionally loving

your authentic self. Stay tuned if you're ready to embrace a reel, let's go.

Hello and welcome back to another.

Hello and welcome back to another episode on the Embrace Real Podcast, really excited about today's

bonus episode. It's going to be a part one of a two-part series and it's all about the science

of chronic stress and weight gain. I get it. Life throws curveballs all the time.

Feeling stress is a normal reaction from our endless to do lists, our careers,

personal goals, family, responsibility, all of it can pile up.

But here's an important thing that you need to know about stress.

When that stress becomes constant, it's called chronic stress.

Unfortunately, this type of stress can only have a serious impact on our mental health, but also our physical health, including our weight.

And since many of you guys are on a journey towards building the body that you want who tune into this

podcast. I kind of want to dive into the science behind stress and weight gain so

that you can have just a greater understanding of kind of what's going on inside of your body. This is so important

because you can be working out consistently, you can be properly fueling your body

through you know optimal macros, but if you don't get your stress under control, you will struggle to see the

results that you want. And so, like I said, stay tuned, this is going to be a part one of a two-part

series and you're going to learn more science on chronic stress and kind of the link to

waking. But before we dive in I want to share this review. It comes from speak and act in faith, which I love that name.

She gave a five-star review and said uplifting.
