🎙️ Episode 44: Engineered to Crave — Rewired to Heal — Food Marketing, GLP-1, and Why “Full = Safety” What if you’re not failing diets—your brain is following design? In this raw, unscripted episode of Plantspiration® Unplugged, Stefanie and John pull back the curtain on how modern food is engineered to hook you—and exactly how whole plants, skill-power, and community rewire the loop. This isn’t just about eating plants. It’s about taking your brain back and loving food that loves you back. 💥 From “willpower” shame to wiring and skill-power 💥 From checkout traps to plate plans that actually stick 💥 From crashy dopamine to steady chemistry (GLP-1, PYY, CCK) This isn’t just an episode— it’s a blueprint for anyone ready to stop getting played and start living free. — — — 💥 THIS EPISODE WILL CHANGE YOU: • Learn the grocery-store playbook (eye-level shelves, kid-level mascots, end-caps, checkout candy) • Understand why “full = biochemical safety” (stretch receptors to GLP-1, PYY, CCK) • It’s not willpower—it’s wiring (and wiring can be rewired) • Why fiber-rich starches flip on the satiety hormones and quiet cravings • The Plantspiration® Health Report: 2,041 lbs down, meds down, energy up • Autodidacts IRL: learning, doing, teaching (Leo’s third-grade reading and chess at age 5) • Community proof: real people, real reversals, real momentum — — — 🌍 WHY THIS MATTERS This episode isn’t about kale.
