You’re Not Lazy — You’re Depleted: The Truth About Women’s Exhaustion

In this episode, I’m uncovering the real reasons behind women’s exhaustion. Tune in to discover why women feel depleted, not lazy.    Key Topics: The difference between being lazy and being truly depleted How chronic stress, overworking, and constant caregiving create the “perfect storm” for burnout The impact of hormonal changes (adrenals, thyroid, estrogen, progesterone) and nervous system dysregulation on women’s health Why traditional advice like “just get more sleep” often misses the mark The cultural shift that celebrates overworking and labels rest as laziness The importance of listening to your body’s signals and trusting your own experience Practical strategies for healing: nervous system regulation, breathwork, morning sunlight, strength training, and micro-moments of rest Why “less is more” when you’re in repair mode, and how to build resilience over time Encouragement for women in perimenopause, menopause, and all stages of life to reclaim their energy and well-being   Let’s dive in!
