In this deeply personal solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what's really been going on in my body, brain, and energy over the past few years.
I share the unfiltered truth about my experience with chronic exhaustion, the surprising results from advanced hormone and neurotransmitter testing, and why popular biohacking advice actually made things worse for me.
We're talking:
The hidden role dopamine plays in motivation, focus, and burnout
Why I was not actually low in estrogen (even though I was told it was)
How adrenaline depletion kept me stuck in overdrive
The habits I unknowingly had that were draining my dopamine—and my energy
What I'm doing now to heal, rebuild, and feel more like myself again
This episode isn't medical advice—it's a peek into my journey. And it's an invitation to approach your own health with more curiosity, more compassion, and way less comparison.
Topics We Cover:
The truth about "high dopamine brains" and what that means for women in midlife
The connection between hormones, neurotransmitters, and stress
Why rest isn't optional for high-performing women—it's essential
Sneaky habits that deplete your dopamine (and what to do instead)
Gentle, science-supported ways to rebuild energy and mental clarity
