In today's podcast episode, I explore the hidden addiction many ambitious women have to stress hormones. Drawing on my experience as a burnout coach, I talk about how a culture of chronic stress and relentless work ethic can lead to detrimental impacts on your health. I share my own journey and case studies from powerful women like Marissa Mayer, former CEO of Yahoo, and Indra Nooyi, former CEO of PepsiCo.
Throughout the episode, I address four typical signs that indicate an addiction to stress hormones. If you thrive under pressure, struggle to relax, have emotional regulation issues, or neglect your health for work, you could be addicted to stress hormones. I provide insightful strategies like managing stress, a healthier lifestyle, prioritizing sleep, and saying “no” to help you break free from feeling stressed and burnout.
Get ready to take incremental but consistent steps towards stress management and healthier lifestyle choices. Learn preparation methods for whole foods to nourish your body, how to add movement in your day for a little fitness action, and about the power and relief of learning to say no.
Join me as we work towards a life less filled with stress and more filled with health, happiness and success. Remember, managing stress is a journey, not a destination. So let's get started!

Welcome to another episode of the Be Well Club podcast. In this episode, we delve into a cycle that plagues many ambitious individuals—the cycle of stress, exhaustion, and sleeplessness. I share my journey navigating through a particularly trying week and muse over the impact of stress on sleep quality. Much is addressed in this episode, from the science behind sleep deprivation and its health consequences to a transformative story of prioritizing well-being.
Feel cranky? Struggle to shut your mind off after a long day? Caught in brain fog? You might be caught in the vicious cycle of continuous stress leading to sleepless nights. It's time to acknowledge and tackle this issue, break the cycle, and reclaim a naturally energized life.
From explaining how stress hormones cause sleep disturbances to dissecting the band-aid solution that caffeine presents, we delve deep into the topic. But it's not just about understanding the issue - it’s about finding the solution. We discuss practical tips like prioritizing sleep hygiene, managing stress, and making dietary amendments.
Believe me, a transformation is possible. Just like Adeline, a client deeply affected by sleep deprivation due to work stress, who changed her lifestyle and saw an impact within a month. And remember, it’s not a sign of weakness - even the CDC reports that over a third of U.S. Adults don't get enough sleep regularly. Break free from the cycle of stress and sleeplessness.
To further help you, there's a special free guide on sleep-boosting tips - DM me SLEEP on Instagram. I also challenge you this week to go caffeine-free after lunch for just one day. Imagine a life where you wake up refreshed, energized, and ready to take on the world. That is possible for you. I believe in you, ambitious ladies.

It whispers that you are a fraud on the brink of being exposed, triggering stress that, in turn, affects your health and well-being.

The host provides effective strategies like focusing on facts, reframing mistakes, sharing struggles, and acknowledging your triumphs.
This enlightening episode isn't limited to identifying the problem. It offers actionable solutions to curb the negativities associated with this syndrome.
