Episode 35: Why You’re Always Tired: Burnout, Thyroid, Hashimoto’s and Autoimmunity | Recover Your Energy with Nicole Goode
Why do so many people feel exhausted even when they are sleeping, eating well, and trying to do everything right? In this episode, I’m joined by Nicole Goode to unpack one of the most common concerns I hear both in clinic and online: persistent fatigue that goes far beyond simply being busy.
We explore the deeper drivers behind low energy, from chronic stress and burnout to thyroid dysfunction, immune imbalance and early autoimmune changes, and why so many high-functioning women are running on empty without fully understanding why. If you constantly feel tired, wired, depleted, or like your body is asking for help, this episode is packed with practical insight.
Topics discussed:
• Why burnout has become so common, especially in high-performing women • The difference between being busy and burnt out • What chronic stress does to your gut, microbiome and immune system • Why energy production and immune health are so closely connected • The link between burnout, thyroid dysfunction and autoimmunity • Why thyroid blood tests can look “normal” even when symptoms persist • Which thyroid markers matter beyond TSH • Why women are more prone to thyroid issues • Early warning signs that may suggest autoimmune changes • Why fatigue is often one of the first major symptoms of immune dysfunction • What supporting autoimmunity looks like in real life • How nutrition and lifestyle can meaningfully calm autoimmune activity • Why caffeine, supplements and pushing through often make fatigue worse • How to rebuild energy in a structured and sustainable way • The first step to take if you feel like your body is starting to struggle
