Ever feel like you're running on empty, despite your best efforts to recharge?
You're not alone.
Many women today aren't just tired—they're downright fatigued.
Sure, there are the obvious culprits—lack of sleep, inadequate nutrition, and stretching yourself too thin with leaky boundaries. But here's the kicker: fatigue can also stem from imbalanced or declining hormones, exacerbated by chronic stress (cue the dreaded HPA axis dysfunction).
In this video, I explain why this makes you so tired and some simple steps to improve your energy.
Key points:
Chronic stress causes a problem with the HPA axis - and your stress response becomes imbalanced .
What tends to happen for women going through perimenopause and menopause is that these symptoms are bundled up as part of “this phase in life” and are misdiagnosed.
Chronic stress causes adrenal imbalance, which throws your body into survival mode, leading to cortisol spikes and eventual depletion. It's a double whammy that leaves you feeling utterly spent.
