The Science of Chronic Stress, Grief & Burnout (and how to fix it!) - with Lisa Walker

Join the conversation: https://forms.gle/7F9vYtPkedAtwWu38 What if the exhaustion, anger, and the feeling like you're just surviving each day isn't just stress... it's your body trying to tell you something bigger? This is a conversation with Lisa Walker, a woman who's lived through chronic stress, grief, and burnout, and came out the other side with a radical approach to living her life. She's studied the science of stress, nervous system regulation, and what actually makes life worth living. And she's getting brutally honest about what happens to your body when you push through for too long. In this episode, Lisa opens up about the years she spent in survival mode, raising young kids, running a business, and managing a marriage affected by addiction that ended in death. She shares the phone call that changed everything, the year of yes that followed, and why she now believes that wellbeing literacy is the number one thing we're missing. Here's what we're exploring: Why so many women hit burnout in their mid 40s (and what chronic stress is actually doing to your body) The difference between emotional dysregulation and nervous system dysregulation (and how they're connected) How grief isn't just about losing a person, it's about grieving the life you thought you were going to have Why sitting in stillness might not be the answer for everyone (and what to do instead) The practical tools that actually work: journaling, meditation, breath work, creativity, and the power of a year of yes Why living with radical aliveness means being brave enough to feel it all This one is for the woman who's been running on empty, who's been told she's fine when she knows something deeper is going on, and who's ready to understand what her body is trying to tell her. 💁‍♀️ SPONSORS → For ecomm founders: Omnisend is your email SMS automation partner that costs 35% less than the big names and returns $79 for every dollar spent → Use code FSC for 30% off your first 3 months at omnisend.com/fsc 🔗 LINKS → → Use code 'FSC' for 30% off your first 3 months at omnisend.com/fsc → Female Startup Club's Instagram: www.instagram.com/femalestartupclub → Doone Roisin's Instagram: www.instagram.com/dooneroisin → Get opportunities delivered to your inbox 3x weekly here: https://female-startup-club.beehiiv.com/
