Journey to the Sunnyside

In this episode, Mike explores a surprising angle on cravings: the role your gut plays in when and why they show up. Drawing on new research about the gut–brain axis, he explains how alcohol, stress, blood sugar swings, and even sleep can influence the signals your gut sends to your brain — and how those signals can feel like cravings. You’ll learn simple, science-backed ways to support your gut, steady your mood, and make cravings easier to manage without relying on willpower or perfection.
